We are currently applying the latest developments in complex nanotechnology to develop more effective, safer, and easier to use topical treatments for a range of common dermatological conditions.
Blueberry Therapeutics apply the latest advances in complex nanotechnology to develop more effective, safer, and easier to use topical treatments for a range of common skin conditions.
‘Nanotechnology’ describes the formation of materials that are measured in nanometres — equal to about one-billionth of a metre — smaller than can be detected under a standard microscope. This exciting technology can be applied to existing topical medicines to overcome pre-existing limitations.
Topical delivery of drugs for skin conditions is hindered by the natural physical barriers of the skin and nails. Our unique drug formulations (for example, BB2603 for the treatment of fungal nail infection) use polymers that complex with the active drug and form nanoparticles. These nanoparticles can improve drug solubility, stability, retention and importantly, delivery to the active disease site. This means better efficacy, but also the potential for reduced doses of active drug, with better safety and tolerability for patients.
