AI Technical Summary
Existing long-term semaglutide injection formulations are inconvenient and uncomfortable, leading to poor patient compliance, and existing slow-release formulations lack controlled initial release and manufacturing efficiency.
A long-acting in-situ gel formulation using poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) polymers, such as Poloxamer, which forms a gel upon contact with body fluids, providing controlled release of semaglutide for extended periods.
The formulation offers high bioavailability, enhanced safety, storage stability, and cost-effectiveness with sustained release of semaglutide for at least 10 hours, maintaining effective plasma concentrations for up to 14 days.
