D-Flex™️ Connect - The connected solution with a digital cap

In this webinar, originally broadcast as part of Pharmapack Europe 2022, Chris Muenzer, Vice President of Innovation & Development, Haselmeier, a medmix Brand discusses how development of an integrated drug delivery device is a complex exercise that requires expertise in medical device engineering and pharmaceutical science. Health authorities expect legal manufactures to have a strategy to control device performance through the entire supply. Modeling and simulation is an important tool to ensure robust and repeatable performance while maintaining time to market. This case study looks at how Haselmeier is applying these techniques during the creation of a new autoinjector platform. In addition, Chris will look at future opportunities for further improvements though expanded use of digital twins and other technologies.

The D-Flex™ closes a gap in the market: The D-Flex™ injection pen can do more than previous pens. D-Flex™ can be configured for several fixed dose values and is thus a variable fixed dose pen. It makes it possible to integrate a certain dosage value or several different fixed dosage volumes in one injection device.

The D-Flex™ Ecosystem comprises hardware, software and services enabling data capture in clinical trials. In particular, the system consists of the D-Flex™ injection pen, a digital cap, a mobile app and the Haselmeier™ dataplatform. The digital cap captures data at the point of care and securely transfers it to the Haselmeier™ data platform.The platform allows controlled and secure access to the different stakeholders.

Here, Fred Metzmann, PhD, Director Business Development, and Frank Leipold, Business Developer Digital Solutions, at Haselmeier, discuss the benefits of connected medical devices in clinical trials and describe the advantages of Haselmeier's D-Flex® Ecosystem for improving adherence and reducing the dropout rate in clinical trials. 

In this article, Fred Metzmann, PhD, Director Business Development, reports on the latest state-of-the-art developments in innovative injection devices for combination products in subcutaneous self-application. He outlines Haselmeier's product platform strategy for single-use (D-Flex) and re-usable (i-pen²) injection-pen systems, and related services. He also looks at the company’s connected digital solutions, which support point-of-care data collection and transfer by patients, as well as data management by stakeholders in the care environment.

Type 2 diabetes is a global health problem – according to expert estimates, the number of patients worldwide will increase by 48 percent by 2045. constantly elevated blood sugar levels mean stress for the blood vessels,which can lead to feared complications,including life-threatening sequelae such as a heart attack, organ failure or stroke. A consistent treatment of type 2 diabetes as early as possible can significantly improve the quality of life for the patient and the course of the disease.All patients have in common that they have had to treat it on their own their whole lives. A patient-centered approach must be consistently developed so that the GLP-1 analogs treatment is efficient.The innovative D-Flex™ injection pen can make a significant contribution to this.

The International Osteoporosis Foundation cites figures of around 200 million osteoporosis patients worldwide.Numerous patients suffer not just one bone fracture, but several at once. Treatment does not appear to be having the best possible effect. As an experienced partner in the design and production of injection systems, Haselmeier is also well prepared in terms of injection pens for osteoporosis therapy.

This session will explore: The role of the device supplier in overall product sustainability Benefits of lifecycle assessment (LCA) in device development Trade-offs between usability, cost of goods, and carbon footprint Challenging Pharma to close the circle and enable better solutions

Lyophilization (freeze drying) is a proven process for increasing the shelf life of vaccines, biologics and other injectables. But delivering these products requires several use steps that make them challenging to administer, particularly by patients and caregivers in non-clinical settings. To address these needs, Haselmeier has been developing several solutions for an easier and more convenient reconstitution and administration. This presentation will cover different types of primary drug containers such as vials and dual chamber cartridges for reconstitution along with the available device solutions to simplify delivery. The challenges and advantages of each solution, including vial to cartridge, out-of-pen reconstitution, and in-pen reconstitution will be discussed.

Simple patient monitoring for self-injection-based therapies

The D-Flex™ Logbook collects injection data at the point of care without the need for a patient mobile app.

D-Flex™ Logbook – From data to value

The D-Flex™ Logbook consists of the disposable D-Flex™ injection pen and a connected cap, which replaces the standard cap of the pen. Patients remove the connected cap from the injection pen, dial a dose, self-inject and put the cap back on the pen; exactly how they would use a pen and a standard protective cap. Once the patient returns the cap onto the pen, the connected cap automatically identifies the administered dose, the current temperature and time and stores this injection event in its internal memory. The cap can store up to 1,000 injection events.
