Thank you Fierce Pharma for inviting Lyndra’s Chief Medical Officer and President of Global Product Development Richard Scranton MD MPH Scranton to be part of the inaugural Fierce Pharma Forward: Drug Development Insights event. There is a lot of innovation taking place in drug delivery and it was an honor to be part of this crucial conversation about how we can better deliver the medicines people need to treat their medical conditions and live healthier lives. If you tuned into the talks, you will have been reminded that patients are the center of our work at Lyndra. As a former internist, Rich shared that, in his experience, it was often difficult to create better outcomes for patients who struggled to adhere to complex medication regimens. “At Lyndra, we aim to remove some of the limitations of how medications are delivered today… Our mission is to improve upon what we had hoped daily medications would be. We believe [the LYNX® platform] is an elegant solution for a complex problem.” Thank you to the Fierce Pharma team, Fraiser Kansteiner and Zoey Becker for inviting us!

Our Chief Technology Officer Kyle Haraldsen shared insights with European Pharmaceutical Review on emerging trends in drug delivery, including Lyndra’s work developing long-acting oral therapies. “…We need to make sure we’re creating things that patients actually want – being truly patient-centric... This is why we’re focused on developing long-acting oral medicines at Lyndra. It’s a drug delivery method that patients know and like, and the potential benefits of long-acting medicines are clear: they can reduce patient and caregiver burden, increase medication adherence and, in turn, produce better patient outcomes.” Read the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/ea6xT-UY #drugdelivery #innovation #biotech
