Abstract
Within the EU funded project »N2B-patch« eleven partners
from eight countries aim to develop an innovative technology for
the nose-to-brain delivery of an active pharmaceutical ingredient
via the olfactory region for the regenerative treatment of multiple
sclerosis using novel multi-functional biomaterials combined
with a medical device. The four year EU-funded research involves
an innovative method of bypassing the blood-brain barrier by
delivering a potential multiple sclerosis drug with a special
medical device via the nose directly to the brain.
Keywords: nose-to-brain, multiple sclerosis, multi-functional biomaterial, drug delivery, API-loaded particles
