[post_content] => SUSTAINED NANO SYSTEMS ACHIEVES POSITIVE IN-VITRO RESULTS ON LONG TERM SUSTAINED DELIVERY OF LATANAPROST FOR GLAUCOMA TREATMENT.
New York, NY – March 6, 2018 (NEWSFRONT MEDIA). Sustained Nano Systems, LLC (“SNS”), a biopharmaceutical company utilizing its platform technology of bio-resorbable nano and microparticles for long term drug delivery, is pleased to announce positive results for the in-vitro presence of Latanaprost for the treatment of glaucoma over a duration of 159 days.
Latanaprost, a prostaglandin analogue, is the #1 glaucoma drug in the world, with dosing of up to four eye drops every day for the remainder of a patient’s life. Latanaprost reduces elevated intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. At the present time, there is no long-acting formulation for glaucoma, only multiple daily eyedrops. SNS LAT-LA (Latanaprost Long Acting) is designed to be administered by a single periocular injection with a duration of six months. “The potential for SNS LAT-LA to sustain deliver for six months, would fulfill an important unmet need in replacing the more burdensome and potentially less compliant regimen of daily eye drops,” said Dr. Barry Libin, CEO of SNS. LAT-LA will now undergo further studies to indicate its efficacy in the long term reduction of intra-ocular pressure.
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the world, in which abnormally high intraocular pressure may cause damage to the optic nerve, resulting in irreversible vision loss. In the U.S. alone, 2.7 million people suffer from glaucoma. According to IMS Health data, there were 34 million prescriptions and sales of over $2.7 billion of drugs administered by eye drops for the treatment of glaucoma in the U.S. in 2017, and global spending was over $6 billion. Compliance is the biggest problem with existing therapies for glaucoma, with more than 50% of patients on topical prostaglandin analogs not compliant within the first six months of treatment
ABOUT SUSTAINED NANO SYSTEMS (SNS)

[post_content] => Stony Brook University Happenings recently profiled the Center for Biotechnology's designation as on of eight national accelerators under the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) Division of Research, Innovation and Ventures (DRIVe). Excerpt below, read the full article here.
Sepsis occurs when chemicals released into the bloodstream to fight an infection trigger inflammatory responses throughout the body. It’s dangerous and often deadly. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, more than 250,000 people die from sepsis each year, and it is a leading cause of hospitalization in the U.S.
What if a simple test could identify the onset of sepsis as soon as it occurs? Better yet, what if wearable technology was available to alert doctors about sepsis in a patient before they ever show symptoms?
This may be possible in the future thanks to Stony Brook University’s participation in the federal government’s new BARDA-DRIVe initiative.

Stony Brook, NY; Stony Brook University: Center for Biotechnology's (CFB) Director of Operations Diane Fabel talks with Alyssa Tuthill, Instructional Support Associate/Biomedical Engineering Labs Manager while Graduate Research Assistant Vaughn Greene works with samples.[/caption]
The initiative, launched by the Division of Research, Innovation and Ventures (DRIVe), will be overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).
BARDA has selected Stony Brook’s Center for Biotechnology as one of eight national accelerators across the country to assist in scouting faculty innovators and businesses that are developing health security technology that meets the program’s goals. The initiative plans to focus first on sepsis and the early detection and diagnosis of infections that threaten national health. More goals will be identified over time.
“National health security is essential for optimum public health, enabling our society to thrive,” said Stony Brook University President Samuel L. Stanley Jr. President Stanley is a biomedical researcher who specializes in emerging infectious diseases. He also chairs the Innovation Committee for the Long Island Regional Economic Development Council.
“With a proven record of research, discovery, innovation and product-development in the biomedical sciences, Stony Brook’s Center for Biotechnology is poised to become an important contributor to the BARDA-DRIVe initiative,” he said. “I am certain that the Center will advance and accelerate research discovery, and strategically collaborate with biotech companies to find solutions to better manage sepsis and emerging national health issues.”
