Publication number: 20230374155Abstract: Embodiments provide swallow-able devices, preparations and methods for delivering therapeutic agents (FAs) within the GI tract such as antibodies (AP-antibodies) or other proteins which neutralize PCSK9 molecules. Many embodiments provide a swallowable device e.g., a capsule for delivering TAs into the intestinal wall (IW). Embodiments also provide TA preparations that are configured to be contained within the capsule, advanced from the capsule into the IW and/or peritoneum and degrade to release the TA into the bloodstream to produce a therapeutic effect. The preparation can be operably coupled to delivery means having a first configuration where the preparation is contained in the capsule and a second configuration where the preparation is advanced out of the capsule into the IW. Embodiments are particularly useful for delivery of AP-antibodies and related TA's for the treatment of cholesterol, lipid and related conditions where such TAs are poorly absorbed and/or degraded within the GI tract.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2023Publication date: November 23, 2023Applicant: Rani Therapeutics, LLCInventors: Mir Imran, Radhika Korupolu, Elaine To, Joel Harris, Mir Hashim
