Develops local prolonged-release therapies that pair drugs with a controlled-release platform. Its business centers on D-PLEX100, a surgical-site infection candidate, and depends on FDA review and the Azurity commercialization partnership.
Pairs active pharmaceutical ingredients with a controlled-release platform that delivers therapy locally at the point of care. Its lead candidate, D-PLEX100, releases doxycycline at the surgical site after wound closure to help prevent surgical-site infection following abdominal colorectal surgery.
Clinical development shifted after the first SHIELD study missed its overall primary endpoint. A later SHIELD study in patients with large abdominal incisions met its primary and key secondary endpoints, and the company completed a rolling NDA submission to the FDA.
Commercialization in the United States and Canada is governed by an exclusive partnership with Azurity Pharmaceuticals. The business remains centered on regulatory review of D-PLEX100 and execution of that partnership.
