Pantec Biosolutions to Present P.L.E.A.S.E.® Professional for Transdermal Drug Delivery at DDP in Las Vegas

 

Ruggell, Liechtenstein, 24 January 2012- Pantec Biosolutions AG, the developer and manufacturer of P.L.E.A.S.E.® Professional, a state of the art portable laser device that sets new standards for safety, precision and versatility, today announced that it will be giving a scientific company presentation during the “Drug Delivery Partnerships” conference from 25th -27th January 2012 in Las Vegas, USA.

Sven Rohmann, M.D. PhD, Pantec Biosolutions’ CBO, will be presenting on the exact science that makes P.L.E.A.S.E.® Professional unique as well as the advantages of the innovative laser device and its multiple application areas.

The presentation will be held at 3:15 PM on 26th January 2012.

Pantec Biosolutions AG has developed and commercialised a laser-powered skin microporation method (P.L.E.A.S.E.® - Precise Laser EpidermAl SystEm) for use prior to drug patch application, which extends the range of drugs that can be delivered transdermally to large molecular weight drugs. This novel application allows the drugs to be delivered directly into the epidermis in a dose-controlled manner, thus avoiding painful injections.

The Company's first focus is to replace the approximately one hundred injections typically applied during hormone therapy in In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF). Drug patch development for IVF hormones is underway and the Company intends to commercialise their product solution "P.L.E.A.S.E.® - device plus drug patches" with a pharma partner company. Further interesting therapeutic areas are currently in preclinical development.

The recently launched P.L.E.A.S.E.® Professional device fulfils the highest safety standards of a medical device and offers ultimate precision, enabling microporation of the skin for the transdermal delivery of large molecule proteins (e.g. hormones for IVF treatment and biopharmaceuticals). P.L.E.A.S.E.® Professional is currently marketed in the European Union as a device for SMART PORATION™ Therapy and other micro-poration based bio-active agent delivery therapies in dermatology and aesthetic medicine.
