A fluid delivery device comprises a fluid reservoir for containing medicament. The fluid reservoir is sealed proximate one end with a sliding seal piston. A delivery path is configured to fluidly couple the fluid reservoir and a patient wearing the fluid delivery device. A basal engine mechanism is configured to directly or indirectly move the sliding seal piston in the fluid reservoir at a controlled basal rate. A bolus mechanism configured to move the basal engine relative to the fluid reservoir and directly or indirectly move the sliding seal piston in the fluid reservoir a discrete bolus amount at a time.

A drug delivery device for selecting and dispensing a number of user variable doses of a medicament includes a housing having an opening, a dose selector operable to set a dose by rotation relative to the housing, a release member controlling movement of a piston in a dispensing direction, and a display comprising a units number wheel and a tens number wheel which are coupled to each other such that a continuous rotation of the units number wheel is translated into an intermittent rotary motion of the tens number wheel. The release member rotates, during dose dispensing, an angle corresponding to the dose set by the dose selector, thereby allowing a piston to move in a dispensing direction.

The present disclosure is generally directed to a clicker arrangement for use in a drug delivery device, i.e. a handheld injection device for selecting and dispensing a number of user variable doses of a medicament. The clicker arrangement comprises a first element rotatable at least in a first direction and a second, non-rotatable element. The first element is axially displaceable relative to the second element between a first position and a second position. One of the elements comprises a clicker arm and the other comprises a protrusion wherein upon rotation of the first element in the first direction relative to the second element the clicker arm is elastically deflectable in a radial direction by the protrusion and relaxable in the opposite radial direction upon disengagement with the protrusion thereby generating an audible and/or tactile feedback signal.

An autoinjector includes a rear body assembly (10) connected to a front body assembly, wherein the rear body assembly (10) contains a drive mechanism (60 . . . ) and the front body assembly contains a syringe (13) or cartridge with a needle at its forward end, the front body assembly including a viewing window (22) through which at least part of the contents of the syringe (13) or cartridge are visible, a removable cap (14) fitted to the forward end of the front body assembly the rear body assembly and the removable cap having respective aligned cut-away regions together defining a frame for the viewing window. Also disclosed is a modular scheme which uses a common platform for the provision of a range of autoinjectors of different fill volumes, with only the length of the plunger (60), and the axial extent of the cut out varying between different versions.

An injected dose detection device which includes a housing having a joint surface surrounding an injection device and a through hole formed on the joint surface configured to communicate with an internal part of the housing, a vibration sensor disposed in the internal part of the housing configured to detect at least one vibration signal based on a minimum vibration threshold, a vibration transmitting element positioned directly between the vibration sensor and the injection device and configured to transmit the at least one vibration signal and a processing unit configured to process the at least one vibration signal for generating injected dose information corresponding to the injected dose.

An assembly for a drug delivery device is provided comprising a screw member comprising a thread, the thread including at least two consecutive portions, the portions having different leads. The device further includes a nut member. The assembly is configured such that, in a first portion of the thread, the nut member includes a first position with respect to an axis transversal to the rotational axis and in a second portion of the thread, the nut member includes a second position with respect to the axis transversal to the rotational axis. The nut member is configured to perform a tilting movement from the first position into the second position when the nut member passes from the first portion to the second portion. Furthermore, a drug delivery device comprising the assembly is described.

A drug delivery device comprises a first component and a second component, wherein a substance is provided on at least one of the first component and the second component. An inner friction of the substance is great enough to stabilize at least one of the orientation and the position of the first component and the second component with respect to one another. The inner friction of the substance is small enough to allow relative movement of the first component and the second component necessary for the intended operation of the device. Furthermore, a method for assembling a drug delivery device is provided.

A syringe including a barrel having an internal reservoir for containing a volume of medication, a plunger received within the barrel and axially movable relative thereto to change the volume of medication in the reservoir, and a dosage indicator movable with the plunger, the dosage indicator in contact with the barrel such that at least one of an audible alert and a tactile alert is produced upon movement of the dosage indicator relative to the barrel.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods utilizing anti-TNF antibodies having a heavy chain (HC) comprising SEQ ID NO:36 and a light chain (LC) comprising SEQ ID NO:37 for use in the treatment or prevention of Type I Diabetes (T1D).

Aspects of the present disclosure disclose a system and method for delivering for administering radiation to a patient. The method may include associating the patient with one of a plurality of coded dosage zones wherein each of the plurality of coded dosage zones corresponds to one or more values of a physical characteristic. The method may further include correlating the one of the plurality of coded dosage zones to a dose of radiation and then applying the dose of radiation to the patient.
