Evaluation of APNT™ Nanoparticle Formulation in Ophthalmic Medications (ARVO 2024) - "In vivo studies assessed investigational ophthalmic agents utilizing APNT in a potent corticosteroid, APP13007 (API-1) clobetasol propionate, and a known macrolide antibiotic (API-2)... APNT nanoparticle technology affords improved delivery of poorly soluble medications and limited bioavailability. Drug penetration and residence time were enhanced by APNT in these in vivo studies with the potential to improve dissolution and distribution within ocular tissues. In the case of API-1, phase 3 trials have been conducted (presented at ASCRS 2023) for the treatment of pain and inflammation post-ocular surgery and showed promising results using APNT in humans."
