Today, there are three marketed nasal vaccines available for human use but many more are in development for both human and veterinary use.Nasal vaccination provides an alternative to the more conventional Injectable drug delivery system. Mucosal immunity can develop via interaction with immune modulators present in the nasal cavity, where the nasal associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) region plays a dominant role

When patients self-administer their medications, 60% do not take them as intended and over half of all patients are non-adherent. The resulting cost of non-adherence and non-optimized therapy is steep and everyone pays the price, from Pharmaceutical companies and payers to HCPs and their patients. The cost of non-adherence alone is US$300 billion per year with $188 billion of US pharma revenue lost. Aptar provides a broad range of Digital Healthcare disease management solutions that are ideal for patients who will self-administer their medications. Our technology has the potential to augment patient care, deliver value across the digital health ecosystem and deliver better patient outcomes providing a more seamless engagement for HCPs, payers, and our Pharma partners in a more connected future.This webinar originally aired as part of Pharmapack Europe 2021

The pharmaceutical industry has recognized the urgency in reducing their CO2 footprint and the need to address the climate change as well as the global waste crisis through circularity. Solutions towards more circularity in the industry are therefore key and the traditional take-make-dispose linear production cycle is going to be replaced with the concept of circular economy. Aptar Pharma recognizes that drug-delivery solutions have to be part of that process, and has started to develop a range of solutions that embrace the circular principles of recycle, replace, reduce and reuse. Today, Aptar Pharma is able to offer several solutions enabling pharmaceutical products with a reduced CO2 footprint for dermal, ophthalmic, nasal and pulmonary applications.

Whether it is for new drug development or Vial-to-Prefilled Life Cycle Management projects, choosing the right primary packaging components is essential and will condition the success of the formulation, as well as the manufacturing and commercialization. As PFS components come in direct contact with the drug, it must remain protected throughout its life cycle, while enabling the safe & efficient delivery of the dose, even when integrated in an autoinjector. This session will discuss the key criteria that must be considered when selecting a Pre-Filled Syringe Plunger and Rigid Needle Shield for biologics and sensitive vaccines, as well as services to de-risk projects and optimized time-to-market. The performance of Aptar Pharma solutions will be demonstrated, addressing machinability, drug-container compatibility, container closure integrity under deep-cold conditions, as well as functional performance for facilitating delivery and autoinjector integration.

In this webinar, originally broadcast as part of the Pharmapack Europe show, speaker Christophe Marie, Global Product Sustainability Director, Aptar Pharma discusses how key Pharmaceutical players are acknowledging that caring for human health is closely tied to caring for the health of the planet. However, the nature of the global Pharma business makes this a challenge to accomplish without collaboration from the full value chain.
Aptar Pharma, a key partner to the Pharmaceutical industry, is committed to furthering a more sustainable business. During his Learning Lab presentation Christophe Marie will share how Aptar is addressing the challenges of sustainability and the aspirations, goals and targets that can support a more sustainable pharmaceutical industry.
Additionally, he will outline what pioneering solutions will have the potential to evolve pharmaceutical packaging and support circular economy.
This session was broadcast as part of the Pharmapack show.

In this webinar, originally broadcast as part of the Pharmapack Europe show, speaker Marcus Bates, Vice President, Digital Healthcare, Aptar Pharma covers an introduction to Connected Devices and the different therapeutic areas that they touch. He also reviews the interaction and interoperability between the connected device and the software platform. He discusses the need for clear definition of the intended use and how this will drive the claims which ultimately leads to the regulatory classification. He also reviews the regulatory classification, regulatory hurdles and the importance of building a road map enabling Real World Data generation. Finally, we will discuss the value and ROI for Connected devices, the most advanced countries for regulatory and reimbursement pathways.

In this webinar, speaker Gemma Budd, Director of Business Development, Nanopharm, will highlight the considerations for both systemic/N2B and intranasal vaccines, and the differences in approach when designing the best device and formulation combination. This session was originally broadcast as part of the Pharmapack Europe 2022. Nasal sprays have been around for decades to successfully manage conditions such as allergic rhinitis (hayfever), where treatment of the nasal cavity is the target. Locally acting nasal drug products continue to be developed to treat other infectious diseases, with a big focus on biologic molecules. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the interest in intranasal vaccine administration to enable rapid roll out of vaccines with fewer supply chain challenges for respiratory diseases, and these products target the NALT region of the nose. By contrast, due to the potential for enhanced and rapid bioavailability, there is resurgence of interest in intranasal delivery to treat systemic disease, and particularly CNS indications, where direct nose-to-brain (N2B) delivery via targeting the olfactory region of the nose.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought on a new age of connected health, with telehealth utilization rates spiking 78 times higher than in February 2020. Telehealth utilization has now stabilized and remains 38 times higher than in February 2020. As new biologic drugs are launched onto the market; more patients can receive treatment in their home as opposed to going to a clinic for an IV infusion. For patients receiving care at home vs. in-clinic a significant challenge that must be overcome is proper training.
The presenters of this abstract have developed and launched training devices, Instructions For Use, and instructional videos to provide patients with the necessary training for success. HCPs typically have 15-20 minutes to onboard a patient. Lack of time paired with the nuances and differences of each device make it nearly impossible to provide effective training and onboarding. Patients that do receive training are still faced with the effects of the forgetting curve, where memory retention drops off over time.
