Nascent & HypoSpray Join Hands to Develop an Alternative Delivery for Pritumumab
Nascent partners with HypoSpray to develop an alternative delivery mechanism for patients who can benefit from Pritumumab
Overview
Nascent Biotech, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing monoclonal antibodies targeting various cancer types, and HypoSpray Pharma (HypoSpray), a clinical and commercial stage drug delivery technology company, announced a collaboration to develop an alternative delivery mechanism for patients who can benefit from Pritumumab (PTB), Nascent's lead monoclonal antibody cancer treatment asset, which is now in phase II clinical research for the treatment of brain cancer.
Future Plans
Once successfully commercialized, the company hopes to eliminate bi-weekly weekly infusions, allowing patients to administer Pritumumab and avoid inconvenient, tedious, and uncomfortable multi hour cancer center treatment visits.
Innovative Technique
HypoSpray Pharma of Palm Beach Gardens FL has developed innovative technology for delivering active ingredients across the skin and mucosa.
The company has a Drug Master File of record with the FDA for its delivery system, which enables measured application of a biological peptide to mucosal membranes or intact skin, promoting rapid absorption and bioavailability.
Words from CEO: Nascent
Nascent CEO, Sean Carrick, commented: "We couldn't be more excited to work with HypoSpray's team and its leading delivery system technology. This collaboration has the potential to drive tangible breakthroughs in cancer treatment and patient care that enable home administration, eventually eliminating the need for bi-weekly multi-hour visits to the infusion center, materially improving quality of life for patients undergoing treatment."
Words from HypoSpray Technology
Chairman and co-developer of the HypoSpray technology, Kenneth Kirby, commented, ""We are optimistic about our ability to enable effective delivery of Pritumumab. We have already successfully demonstrated our ability to accomplish similar objectives with several other peptides, including Melanocortin, Insulin, and Incretins, saving patients precious time and energy avoiding traditional infusion delivery.""
Words from Hospital Experts
Cancer drug researcher and drug delivery expert, Dr. Chandan Alam, formerly of the William Harvey Institute at the Royal London School of Medicine, said, ""Our experience in multiple trials of the HypoSpray DS technology with small molecules and peptides in pre-clinical trials has demonstrated its ability to rapidly deliver effective doses while enhancing blood-brain cross-over.""
Dr. William Kirsh, University of Miami Hospital Faculty and expert on End-of-life care, commented, ""For patients with life-challenging illness, every minute counts. Eliminating hours of preparation, commuting, and the infusion process will be seen as a significant upgrade by GBM patients - for them, every hour is precious.
