An adaptor for connecting a drug delivery device to a needleless access device having a straight external thread, including engagement means for mounting said adaptor on the drug delivery device, and an internal thread intended to cooperate with said external thread on a determined length, said internal thread showing on a distal part of said length a first major diameter mating that of said straight external thread, wherein said internal thread shows on a proximal part of said length a second major diameter, where the second major diameter is strictly smaller than the first major diameter, said internal thread further including a tapered portion linking said proximal part to said distal part.

Adaptor for a needleless access device and method for connecting said device thereon

A drug delivery device includes a reservoir for containing a medical product, a distally projecting end-piece having an outer surface and a total length measured along a longitudinal axis of said end-piece, said end-piece defining an axial passageway for the transfer of said medical product contained in said reservoir, wherein a gripping surface is provided on a portion of said outer surface, said portion being located in a distal region of said end-piece, the length of said portion representing at most 40%, preferably less than 33%, of the total length of the end-piece. An assembly includes such a drug delivery device and an adaptor intended to be mounted onto the end-piece.
