DRUG DELIVERY PLATFORMS

DRUG/DEVICE
COMBINATION PRODUCTS

The number of healthcare products that combine drugs with devices is rapidly increasing as developers seek to enhance therapeutic efficacy of existing products or create entirely new therapeutic treatments. The best-known device/drug “combination device” is the drug­-eluting stent (DES), which is a scaffold coated with a drug to prevent scar tissue from growing in an artery. However, combination products today include drug-coated devices, drug delivery devices, and drugs packaged with devices.

Our unique expertise involves selecting the right polymer material or formulation for the use of a delivery platform for a pharma ingredient. By altering the characteristics of the polymer matrix, Polyzen can work with the client to target appropriate elution profiles.

DELIVERING EXCELLENCE
IN CHEMISTRY & MATERIAL FORMULATION

One of the most critical challenges in drug/device combination products is selecting the right polymer for the right drug and ensuring a balanced relationship between them. That’s what makes Polyzen’s expertise with polymer formulation, chemistry, and processing so important: we’re already equipped to deliver excellence in combination drug-device products in-house.
