Linguet™: a platform technology with clear commercial opportunities �
----- End of picture text -----
-
Linguet is targeted at those drugs that:�
-
Show poor oral bioavailability (e.g. progesterone, testosterone);�
-
Require rapid onset of action (e.g. analgesics, erectile dysfunction products);�
-
Cause gastro-intestinal irritation (e.g. NSAIDs, bisphosphonates & statins);�
-
Are degraded in the gastro-intestinal tract (GIT) and require dose compensation (e.g. hormone replacement formulations); and�
==> picture [206 x 128] intentionally omitted <==
- Are adversely affected by high first-pass metabolism in the liver and thus rely on massive over dosing in order to deliver the correct therapeutic outcome (e.g. pain relief).�

One of the opportunities for Linguet™�
----- End of picture text -----
==> picture [290 x 193] intentionally omitted <==
• Oral medicines market remains the largest proportion of the global pharmaceutical market but does not address the dysphagic market – patients with reduced ability to swallow medicines:�
-
35% of the general population have difficulty in swallowing medicines[1�]
-
30-40% of elderly institutionalised patients have difficulty in swallowing as well as 18-22% of patients in long-term care[1�]
-
Up to 50% of the population suffer from difficulty in the of swallowing tablets[2�]
• Ageing populations with increased reliance on “Care in the Community” provisions continues to drive the need for low-cost solutions to enhance patient compliance within the home setting.�

-
Targeting simple and known molecules where the market is fully known.�
-
Use of proven rapid screening of formulations to reduce timescales and potential failure rates:�
-
Microcalorimetry stability screening for formulations, drug/excipient and drug/packaging interactions; and�
-
In-vitro porcine trans mucosal studies allowing for greater predictability for in-vitro pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies.�
• Use of proven manufacturing techniques:�
-
No requirement for investment in specialised equipment for manufacturing; and�
-
Use of Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS) excipients.�
• Low cost development:�
-
Established molecules with lower requirements for toxicology and preclinical studies; and�
-
Relatively short time from lab to patient giving significant commercial advantage.�
