Publication number: 20220218900Abstract: Disclosed herein is a wearable drug delivery device including a container filled at least partially with a drug including at least one of a PCSK9 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9) specific antibody, a granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), a sclerostin antibody, or a calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antibody. The wearable drug delivery device may include a needle and an insertion mechanism configured to insert the needle into a patient. A fluid pathway connector may define a sterile fluid flowpath between the container and the insertion mechanism. Optionally, a cannula initially disposed about the needle may be included. The cannula may be retained in the patient at an injection site created by the needle after the needle is withdrawn from the patient. Methods of assembly and operation are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2022Publication date: July 14, 2022Inventors: Scott R. Gibson, Sheldon B, Moberg, Basel Hasan Taha, Margaux Frances Boyaval, Mark A. Destefano, John C. Love, Ian B. Hanson, Paul F. Bente, IV, Matthew J. Clemente, Rajan Ramaswamy, Daniel S.

Patent number: 10806854Abstract: An insertion mechanism for a drug pump includes an insertion mechanism housing; a manifold guide; an insertion biasing members initially held in an energized state; a retraction biasing member and a hub connected to a proximal end of a needle, wherein the retraction biasing member is held initially in an energized state between the hub and the manifold guide; and a manifold having a septum and a cannula, wherein the annular space between the septum and the cannula defines a manifold header. The needle and cannula are inserted into the body of a user by the insertion biasing member(s), after which only the needle is retracted. Retraction of the needle may open a fluid pathway from the manifold header to the body through the cannula. A drug delivery pump includes an activation mechanism, a drive mechanism, a fluid pathway connection, and the insertion mechanism. Assembly and operation methods are provided.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2016Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: UNL Holdings LLCInventors: Sean M. O'Connor, Robert Decker, Gautam N. Shetty, Mark A. DeStefano, Ian B. Hanson, Paul F. Bente, IV

Patent number: 9987421Abstract: A cannula for administration of a medicine to a target location includes a tube with at least one nodule disposed along the circumferential surface and spaced at a defined distance from the distal end of the tube. An arrangement for delivery of a medicine to a target location includes the cannula and a pump fluidly coupled to the cannula. The distal end of the cannula may be inserted into a target location until the nodule reaches a surface that limits a depth of penetration before delivery of the medication.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2015Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: UNL Holdings LLCInventors: Robert Decker, Gautam N.
