Camurus AB products

FluidCrystal topical bioadhesive is a liquid product that forms a bioadhesive film when applied to body tissues. The film acts as an invisible patch, slowly and accurately releasing the active ingredient for the treatment, systemically or locally. It also acts as a protective barrier for sensitive and inflamed tissues. The bioadhesive formulation is suitable for the prolonged local release of active ingredients on the skin and on the mucous membranes of for example the mouth, nose, and throat.

FluidCrysta nanoparticles can resolve bioavailability issues for water and lipid-soluble pharmaceuticals or biodegradation-sensitive drugs, such as peptides and proteins. FluidCrystal nanoparticles are usually water-based and comprise a stable emulsion of nanoparticles with a liquid crystalline structure. Investigational medicinal products based on this technology are administered either parenterally via injections, or as a liquid sprayed onto the skin or mucous membranes.

Camurus’ FluidCrystal injection depot is designed to provide treatment efficacy over extended periods – from days to months – with a single injection. It has the potential to reduce the burden of daily medication while increasing adherence to therapy. FluidCrystal^® is suitable for biological peptides as well as small molecules.
