Dispense interface with lockout element
A dispense interface for use with a drug delivery device with an inner body and with a lockout element. The lockout element is coupled to the inner body movable from a receptive condition to a locked condition, wherein in the receptive condition the dispense interface is attachable to the drug delivery device. In the locked condition, the dispense interface is not-attachable to the drug delivery device. The lockout element is configured to move from the receptive condition to the locked condition when said dispense interface is attached to and detached from said drug delivery device.
Method and compositions for dissolving or solubilizing therapeutic agents
The invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a dry medicament. The dry medicaments can be rapidly dissolved, solubilized, and/or reconstituted to deliver to a subject. The present invention provides methods of preparing a medical solution. The medical solution can be prepared from mixing the pharmaceutical composition as described herein with a first liquid.
PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATION
The present invention relates to pharmaceutical formulations of highly active drugs with limited shelf-life in aqueous media, suitable to be administered by a caregiver person to a patient avoiding or minimizing the risk of exposure, contact or contamination of the caregiver person with the active product ingredient (API), preferably an EGFR-TKI such as afatinib dimaleate.
Delivery system for injections throughout zone of body
A dispensing device which disperses medicate through a needle across a zone within a body. The device includes a needle which is, during use, becomes encapsulated within a tubular needle-receiving member, a reservoir in fluid communication with the needle, positioned within the housing, and in communication with the needle, a second reservoir, a reservoir-connecting conduit in communication with the reservoir, a fluid drive in communication with the fluid in the second reservoir and in communication with the reservoir-connecting conduit, and a linear drive attached to the needle or to the needle-receiving member. The fluid drive impel fluids from the second reservoir to the reservoir-connecting conduit and thus drives the therapeutic agent from the reservoir during the linear displacement of the needle towards the housing. Fluid communication from the therapeutic agent reservoir to the needle is maintained by the tubing during operation of the linear drive.
Device, Delivery System, And Method For Ocular Therapy
Devices and methods for the ab interno delivery of two or more fluid compositions into Schlemm's canal through a single insertion point in the eye with minimal trauma. The hand-held delivery device includes a handle coupled to an elongated shaft that terminates in a self-trephinating tip through which one or more cannulae are slidably disposed and can be extended or retracted therethrough. The handle further defines a chamber for receiving one or more cartridges each containing at least one fluid composition. Each cartridge is fluidly connected to a respective cannula such that sequential actuation of each cartridge causes dispensation of the fluid compositions at the site for delivery without having to repeatedly enter the target site multiple times. Ab interno methods for localized delivery of a fluid composition into Schlemm's canal are further described.
Dual-chamber syringe with dual-lumen intravenous set
A dual-chamber syringe may include an end wall and a primary plunger. The primary plunger may include a primary stopper. The primary stopper may form a primary chamber with the end wall. A secondary plunger may be in mechanical association with the primary plunger. The secondary plunger may include a secondary stopper. The secondary stopper may form a secondary chamber with the primary stopper. A primary nozzle may extend from the end wall and may be in fluid communication with the primary chamber. A secondary nozzle may extend from the end wall and may be in fluid communication with the secondary chamber.
DEVICES FOR RECONSTITUTING AND DELIVERING LYOPHILIZED DRUGS
The present disclosure relates to drug delivery devices, and in particular, to drug delivery devices configured to reconstitute a lyophilized drug powder into liquid form prior to delivery into a patients body. In some embodiments, such devices include a flexible drug reservoir having a proximal reservoir component storing a liquid diluent and a distal reservoir component storing a lyophilized drug powder, wherein the two compartments are separated by a frangible seal. A compression member may be positioned above the reservoir and held up by a releasable mechanism. When released, the compression member may be driven downwards to compress the proximal compartment so as to break the frangible seal and allow the diluent to mix with the drug powder and form a liquid drug mixture, and then to eject the liquid drug mixture from the reservoir.
Mixing element for container assemblies
A container assembly with improved mixing dynamics for mixing substances in preparation for injection by an injection device or for the dispersion of additives in the collection and analysis of biological samples is disclosed. In one configuration, the container assembly includes a first mixing element protruding into an interior of a container. With the container rotated about its longitudinal axis, the first mixing element forms at least one vortex which effectuates mixing of a first substance provided within the container interior and a second substance provided within the container interior.
SYRINGE FOR RECONSTITUTING AND INJECTING A PHARMACEUTICAL SOLUTION
A prefilled syringe includes a tubular containment body extending along an axis between a front end element and a rear end element, a fixed plug and two sliding plugs. A bypass channel in the initial position of the syringe is between the first two plugs which form, together with a third plug at the end of the syringe plunger, a first containment chamber containing a first liquid substance and a second containment chamber containing a second solid or liquid substance. The fixed plug is in contact with the front end element and is provided with a non-through cavity offset with respect to the axis and facing towards the front end element.
DEFORMABLE CARTRIDGE FOR INJECTION DEVICE
A deformable cartridge for an injection device of an injectable solution has a cartridge body having a first containment chamber of a first component of the injectable solution, having a first compression-deformable wall, a second containment chamber of a second component of the injectable solution, having a second compression-deformable wall to allow the second component to be transferred from the second containment chamber to the first containment chamber, a separation device interposed between the first and the second containment chambers and having a device body. A fluidic communication duct is defined in the device body. The deformable cartridge assumes a first operating configuration in which the fluidic communication duct is not crossable by the second component and a second operating configuration in which the fluidic communication duct is crossable by the second component. A needle holder component is fixed to the cartridge body and fluidly connected to the first containment chamber which is interposed between the needle holder component and the separation device.
