In the field of modern drug delivery, microspheres have become a cutting-edge platform for controlled release and targeted delivery of therapeutic agents. By adjusting parameters such as particle size, material composition, and surface functionalization, microspheres can effectively control drug release rates, improve therapeutic outcomes, and reduce systemic side effects.
As a global leader in drug delivery technology, Litchlab focuses on developing high-performance microsphere systems, dedicated to providing innovative microsphere delivery platforms for the pharmaceutical industry, covering small molecule drugs, biologics (proteins, antibodies, peptides), gene therapies (mRNA, siRNA), vaccines, and more.
Litchlab Microsphere Technology Core Advantages
1. Controlled Release
Litchlab manufactures microspheres using biodegradable polymers (such as PLGA, PCL, PEG-PLGA composites), enabling sustained release, pulsatile release, and even stimuli-responsive release.
Improved therapeutic duration: Reduces dosing frequency and improves patient compliance.
Reduced fluctuations in blood drug concentration: Minimizes side effects caused by high or low drug concentrations.
Long-acting treatments: Ideal for diseases that require long-term dosing, such as diabetes, chronic pain, and mental health disorders.
2. Targeted Drug Delivery
Litchlab enhances microsphere targeting by using surface functionalization techniques (such as conjugation with monoclonal antibodies, peptides, or nucleic acid aptamers), ensuring drugs are delivered specifically to the affected site.
Increased therapeutic selectivity: Reduces the impact on healthy tissues and enhances drug efficacy.
Reduced systemic toxicity: Minimizes damage to normal tissues when delivering chemotherapy or anti-inflammatory drugs.
Targeted RNA delivery (siRNA/mRNA): Improves stability of nucleic acid drugs and enhances cellular uptake.
3. Versatility for Multiple Drug Types
Litchlab's microsphere platform is applicable to various drug types, including:
Small molecule drugs: Improves the bioavailability of poorly soluble compounds.
Protein and antibody drugs: Maintains activity and improves stability.
Gene therapies (mRNA, siRNA, ASO): Protects nucleic acid drugs and improves delivery efficiency.
Vaccine delivery: Achieves sustained release of antigens to boost immune responses.
Applications of Litchlab Microsphere Drug Delivery Technology
1. Oncology Treatment
Microsphere-encapsulated chemotherapy drugs (e.g., paclitaxel, doxorubicin) to target tumors and reduce systemic toxicity.
Monoclonal antibody (mAb) or immune checkpoint inhibitors (PD-1/PD-L1): Enhances precision in immunotherapy.
Combination therapies: Combining chemotherapy drugs and siRNA in microspheres to improve therapeutic efficacy.
2. Rare and Chronic Disease Management
Sustained-release insulin microspheres for long-term diabetes treatment, improving glycemic control.
Steroid-loaded microspheres for osteoarthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and other chronic conditions, reducing the frequency of injections.
Sustained-release antipsychotic microspheres (e.g., risperidone, aripiprazole) to improve patient compliance and reduce side effects.
3. Gene & RNA Delivery
siRNA/mRNA microsphere delivery systems to enhance RNA drug stability and prevent degradation.
Gene editing (CRISPR/Cas9) delivery for improving gene therapy efficiency.
Vaccine microsphere delivery for sustained release of mRNA vaccines to improve immune efficacy.
4. Pain Management
Sustained-release local anesthetic microspheres (e.g., bupivacaine) for prolonged pain relief.
Opioid delivery systems for sustained release, reducing dependency and tolerance.
