Traditional injections lead to fluctuating drug concentrations—spiking above therapeutic levels and then dropping below effectiveness. Vitranu’s technology changes that. Our injectable, dissolvable microcapsule is engineered to maintain consistent, controlled drug release above the therapeutic threshold. This breakthrough in drug delivery is designed and tested for monoclonal antibodies and genetic medicines, paving the way for more durable, predictable treatment outcomes. Innovating for precision. Delivering for patients.
