Second part of Belopenem formulation work is initiated
Double Bond Pharmaceutical has now initiated the second part of formulation work for Belopenem project. In this part the targeting effect of a number of formulation that passed all the analytical criteria in part one will be tested in vivo and the best one will be further selected and developed as a new medicine. Belopenem is a combination of meropenem, which is a well-known antibiotic against pneumonia, and DBP’s own platform Belogal® that targets the active substance to the selected organ, in this very case to the lung.
“We are very satisfied with being able to keep the timeline and successfully initiate the second step virtually immediately after the completion of the first one, - Igor Lokot, CEO at Double Bond Pharmaceutical, comments. - ”Now it is time to identify the targeting grade of Belopenem formulations, i.e. to find out how effectively and to what extent can we target the active substance meropenem to the lung.”
