Stevanato Group has introduced the new patented on-body delivery system Vertiva for several subcutaneous therapies.
Designed to be adapted to different delivery profiles, the device facilitates the administration of biologics and small-molecule drugs.
The new system holds the potential to switch between basal and bolus injections.
It is programmed to deliver micro-precision basal doses and full-content bolus injections and can be used for various therapies including oncology, immunology, pain diseases and cardiovascular and metabolic disorders.
Vertiva features a pre-filled and pre-loaded 3mL ISO cartridge, as well as a multi-use controller. Both parts communicate through a patented magnetically coupled drive mechanism.
The device simplifies treatment initiation for patients by preloading and sealing the cartridge into the pod during factory assembly, allowing one to conduct administrations at home and offering connectivity options for digital health applications.
