Double Bond Pharmaceutical has now completed the first part of formulation work for Belopenem project. This means that the first formulation that successfully combines the active substance meropenem and the Belogal platform is now ready and satisfies the analytical specifications for Belogal as a targeted formulation. The next step will start shortly and will aim to verify the targeted effect of the formulation in vivo.

“We are very satisfied with being able to keep the timeline and successfully complete the first step of the project, - Igor Lokot, CEO at Double Bond Pharmaceutical, comments. - ”Moreover, we have managed to improve Belogal platform while working with Belopenem formulation, which means that the product will have fewer excipients than we thought would be necessary and therefore will be easier and cheaper to manufacture and perform the toxicology on.”

Belopenem project is co-financed by Eureka and is an international collaboration between Double Bond Pharmaceutical together with Karolinska Institutet with SME from France.
