"The data doesn't lie," said Dr DeBrouse. "After years of research, I am happy to say, not only have we achieved our goal of providing the world with the first clinically relevant oral formulation of insulin, but we have developed a Serum-Specific broad spectrum transport vehicle capable of reproducibly transporting and dosing the bloodstream with nearly 92% of any number of complex therapeutic peptides."

?We all know the "holy grail" of drug delivery is insulin. If you can deliver that orally you can pretty much deliver anything.?

Millions of patients worldwide require Insulin treatment, therefore a successful oral Insulin formulation has long been sought after to eliminate the use of needles, as well as the trauma associated with the use of Insulin injections. Though there have been many attempts to do so, until now, a viable oral alternative capable of delivering a therapeutic dose of insulin has yet to be confirmed.
