Aegis Awarded US Patent for Non- Invasive Delivery of Anti-Seizure Drugs
Aegis Therapeutics LLC recently announced it has been awarded US Patent No. 8,927,497 providing broad coverage for non-invasive delivery of anti-seizure drugs via a simple metered nasal spray.
The rapidly acting formulations utilize Aegis’ patented Intravail transmucosal absorption enhancer technology. Aegis now has 21 issued patents related to non-invasive delivery of peptide, protein, nucleotide, and small molecule drugs, as well as stabilization and immunogenicity reduction for monoclonal antibody and other protein biotherapeutics, with more than 50 additional patent applications currently pending worldwide.
Aegis Therapeutics LLC is a drug delivery technology company commercializing its patented drug delivery and drug formulation technologies through product-specific licenses. Its Intravail drug delivery technology enables the non-invasive systemic delivery of a broad range of protein, peptide, and non-peptide drugs that can currently only be administered by injection, via the oral, buccal, and intranasal administration routes, and with high bioavailability.
Its ProTek excipients stabilize, prevent aggregation, and reduce unwanted immunogenicity of monoclonal antibodies and other protein and peptide therapeutics while avoiding the oxidative damage and resulting unwanted immunogenicity caused by polysorbate surfactants currently found in most protein injectable drugs.
