Disclosed herein are triglyceride based formulations, compositions, and methods for the treatment of otic diseases and conditions. Such triglyceride based formulations and compositions are derived from long-chain triglycerides and allow for the delivery of a variety of therapeutic agents to the outer, middle, and/or inner ear.

Triglyceride otic formulations and uses thereof

Disclosed herein are triglyceride based formulations, compositions, and methods for the treatment of otic diseases and conditions. Such triglyceride based formulations and compositions are derived from medium chain triglycerides and allow for the delivery of a variety of therapeutic agents to the outer, middle, and/or inner ear.

The disclosure provides one-component, injectable, sustained release formulations which comprise microspheres containing active pharmaceutical ingredients (e.g., exenatide), wherein the microspheres are suspended in a non-aqueous carrier. The non-aqueous carrier can be an oil, a fractionated oil, triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides, propylene glycol fatty acid diesters, and the like. The formulations offer distinct advantages of long shelf life for the stability and potency of the formulation and sustained release of active pharmaceutical ingredients to reduce the frequency of medication dosing and to increase patient compliance.

Sustained release formulations using non-aqueous carriers

The present invention provides devices and methods for mixing a formulation containing two or more constituents, such as a drug product and a diluent. The devices have a chamber for securing a container of the drug product. Various embodiments are presented. In one embodiment the device has two or more sides connected by a hinge, the two or more sides defining the chamber between them, and a handle for grasping and manipulating the device. In another embodiment the device has a housing with two or more side bars defining the chamber, the container being visible from outside the housing between the side bars and having a stopping element at the distal end, and a handle having two arms for grasping.
