  • Patent number: 10702683
    Abstract: A therapeutic delivery device comprises a layer of biodegradable material wound into a plurality of windings, the plurality of windings comprising an outermost winding defining an internal volume and winding pairs including a first winding pair and a second winding pair. A first therapeutic mass is incorporated in or on the layer the first winding pair and a second therapeutic mass is incorporated in or on the layer along the second winding pair. Perforations extend through at least selected windings.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 10, 2018
    Date of Patent: July 7, 2020
    Inventors: Matthew Q. Shaw, Robert F. Wallace
  • Patent number: 10561605
    Abstract: A biodegradable therapeutic carrier and implant comprises a layer of biodegradable electrospun material and floored wells formed by the layer to contain therapeutic.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 22, 2014
    Date of Patent: February 18, 2020
    Inventors: Robert F. Wallace, Matthew Q. Shaw
  • Patent number: 10391291
    Abstract: A needle shell is inserted through skin with a needle insert within the needle shell occluding an insertion end of the needle shell. The needle insert is withdrawn from the needle shell and an implant tube is inserted into the needle shell and below the skin, wherein the implant tube is slid within the needle shell while the needle shell is below the surface of the tissue. Interior surfaces of the implant tube contact and guide sliding movement of the implant. An implant insertion rod is inserted into the needle shell to implant an implant below the skin.

  • Patent number: 10092735
    Abstract: A therapeutic delivery device comprises a layer of biodegradable material wound into a plurality of windings, the plurality of windings comprising an outermost winding defining an internal volume and winding pairs including a first winding pair and a second winding pair. A first therapeutic mass is incorporated in or on the layer the first winding pair and a second therapeutic mass is incorporated in or on the layer along the second winding pair. In one implementation, at least one volume of gas is captured within the internal volume and occupies at least 50% of the internal volume. In one implementation, the windings include perforations.

  • Patent number: 9211374
    Abstract: A therapeutic implantable device comprises a biodegradable outer shell, a plurality of spaced biodegradable layers within the outer shell, a first therapeutic mass between the plurality of spaced biodegradable layers and a second therapeutic mass between the plurality of spaced biodegradable layers. The plurality of spaced biodegradable layers are arranged such that the first therapeutic mass is exposed external to the implantable device before exposure of the second therapeutic mass external to the implantable device.
