EsoCap AG announced presentation of new data, with smart application technology in the upper gastrointestinal tract demonstrating that long-lasting topical drug therapy within the esophagus is achievable for the first time.
The University of Greifswald, Germany, conducted an imaging study in twelve healthy volunteers, with the objective of evaluating esophageal disposition of thin films. The imaging data showed an unrivalled long contact time and good adhesion of the polymer film to the esophageal mucosa. The data was presented at the AAPS Congress (American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists), held on November 3-6, 2019 in San Antonio, Texas.
