SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2022 / Modular Medical, Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Modular Medical') (NASDAQ:MODD), a development stage, insulin delivery technology company seeking to launch the next generation of easy to use and affordable insulin pump technology, today announced an update on the development of its initial insulin pump product.

The Company has continued to make progress on the testing required for its 510(k) submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ('FDA') of its MODD1 insulin pump product. The Company has identified certain material in the pump device that was incompatible with the sterilization process utilized. As previously announced, this compatibility issue has delayed the Company's 510(k) submission timeline. The Company has identified replacement materials, which are being qualified for use in the product. Given the expected resolution of the compatibility issue, the Company now expects to make its submission to the FDA during the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
