  • Publication number: 20230270941
    Abstract: A computerized electro-mechanical drug delivery device configured to deliver at least one dose of two or more medicaments. The device comprises a control unit. An electro-mechanical drive unit is operably coupled to the control unit and a primary reservoir for a first medicament and a secondary reservoir for a fluid agent, e.g. a second medicament. An operator interface is in communication with the control unit. A single dispense assembly is configured for fluid communication with the primary and the secondary reservoir. Activation of the operator panel sets a first dose from the primary reservoir and based on the first dose and a therapeutic dose profile, the control unit is configured to determine a dose or range of the fluid agent. Alternatively, the control unit determines or calculates a dose or range of a third medicament. Further, a dispense interface for use with a drug delivery device is disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20160361495
    Abstract: A computerized electro-mechanical drug delivery device (10) configured to deliver at least one dose of two or more medicaments. The device comprises a control unit (300). An electro-mechanical drive unit (500, 600) is operably coupled to the control unit and a primary reservoir (90) for a first medicament and a secondary reservoir (100) for a fluid agent, e.g. a second medicament. An operator interface (60) is in communication with the control unit (300). A single dispense assembly (200) is configured for fluid communication with the primary (90) and the secondary (100) reservoir. Activation of the operator panel sets a first dose from the primary reservoir and based on the first dose and a therapeutic dose profile (860), the control unit (300) is configured to determine a dose or range of the fluid agent. Alternatively, the control unit determines or calculates a dose or range of a third medicament.

  • Patent number: 9517308
    Abstract: A dose setting mechanism comprises a drug delivery device housing and a dual state track provided within the housing that is axially and rotationally fixed with respect to the housing. A dose dial component is positioned in the housing and rotatable during dose setting and dose delivery. A clutch is rotatable during dose setting and non-rotatable during dose delivery. A clutch plate is rotationally fixed relative to the housing; and a clutch blocker is in threaded engagement with the clutch plate and has a radial key engaged with the dual state track. The mechanism may comprise a biasing member positioned between the clutch blocker and clutch plate.

  • Patent number: 9402961
    Abstract: A drug delivery device having a spring element that provides dispense assistance. The drug delivery device includes a variable dose setting mechanism, a fixed dose setting mechanism, and a mechanical coupling having a spring element. The variable dose setting mechanism is operably coupled to a first reservoir holding a first medicament, and the variable dose setting mechanism comprises a dose setter. The fixed dose setting mechanism is operably coupled to a second reservoir holding a second medicament. The mechanical coupling operably couples the variable dose setting mechanism and the fixed dose setting mechanism. Further, the variable dose setting mechanism is configured to set a variable dose of the first medicament upon activation of the dose setter, and the fixed dose setting mechanism is configured to set a fixed dose of the second medicament during variable dose setting.

  • Patent number: 9333303
    Abstract: A drug delivery device having a trigger biasing member that provides dispense assistance. The drug delivery device includes a variable dose setting mechanism that is operably coupled to a primary reservoir holding a first medicament. The drug delivery device also includes a fixed dose setting mechanism that is operably coupled to a secondary reservoir holding a second medicament. The fixed dose setting mechanism comprises a trigger biasing member or spring. In addition, the drug delivery device includes a mechanical coupling that operably couples the variable dose setting mechanism and the fixed dose setting mechanism. During dose setting, activation of a single dose setter sets a variable dose of the first medicament. Setting of a minimum dose of the first medicament causes a fixed dose of the second medicament to be automatically set, and, during dispense, the trigger spring at least assists with the dispense of the fixed dose of the second medicament.
