Insulin, needle-less, transdermal
Brief summary
An Early Feasibility Study of a device formulation to deliver human insulin across intact skin
Detailed description
An attempt was made to formulate an insulin product that would complex human insulin in a stable anhydrous solution and when applied to the skin enable the uptake and release of insulin in a brittle T1D patient. A series of formulations were produced at varing dose strengths and in conjunction with injected insulin products, applied and serum glucose measured to ascertain response and optimize a fomrula to be submitted for IND approval.
Interventions
Human Insulin USP formulated in a solution capable of transdermal delivery.
