Monday, May 22, 2023

GREENWICH, Conn., May 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In a major development, Vesselon has discovered how to protect a superior method of delivering drugs shown to be effective in more than 1,700 independent preclinical and clinician-sponsored human trials. Despite compelling evidence that the method improves the Therapeutic Index of numerous drugs in many indications, its promise has been ignored by the pharmaceutical industry because it has not been patentable, until now.

Key Points: 
  • Based on this discovery, the drug maker has filed patents on its TriForm™ lipid platform.
  • The on-site, in-vial mixing process instantly combines a therapeutic drug with the FDA-approved Vesselon lipid microsphere shown to have the same safety level as saline.
  • After mixing a standard dose, each vial contains approximately 10 billion lipid microspheres encapsulating the active drug, 50 trillion liposomes loaded with the active drug, as well as the freely circulating drug.
  • In addition to existing franchises, current and future pipeline drugs will also benefit from the Vesselon platform.
