Project Description

 

The company is developing a breakthrough DPI (Dry    Powder Inhaler) that uses advanced technology to overcome the drawbacks of    current inhalers. This proprietary inhaler is the first device to combine    an active dry powder fluidization mechanism that works with low inhalation    flow rates combined with a unique real-time feedback control and data    logger that indicates proper inhalation technique and follow-up.   The product assures optimal drug delivery. Young    children and the elderly will particularly benefit from the advantages of its    dry powder inhalation. The product’s unique DPI is developed for the    treatment of pulmonary diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive    pulmonary disease (COPD).   A successful First In Man trial on asthmatic    children was completed on May 2013.   The global market for pulmonary drug delivery    systems totaled $22.5 billion for 2011. That number is projected to    increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.3% between 2011 and    2016, reaching nearly $44 billion in 2016. The DPI segment, worth $7.5    billion in 2011, should be worth nearly $13.4 billion in 2016, a CAGR of    12.3%
