Details and patient eligibility

About

Microdermics Inc. is a British Columbia-based Canadian incorporation primarily focusing on microneedle-based painless and effective drug delivery systems.The Microneedle Adapter (model UAR-2S) is a single-use disposable medical device intended to provide a mechanism for intradermal bolus fluid delivery when used with a standard syringe with a Luer-lock tip connection. The Microneedle Adapter consists of a single-use gold-coated metallic microneedle integrated within the microneedle adapter with fluidic connections to a standard Luer syringe mount. The primary function of the Microneedle Adapter is to guide the microneedle into the skin in a controlled manner for successful insertion passing the stratum corneum layer. The fluid loaded onto the syringe can then be injected precisely intradermally into the skin.The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the Microneedle Adapter in healthy subjects in 3 different injection sites. Pain perception of the Microneedle Adapter will be a key secondary outcome, compared with the control device.

Description:
Each subject will undergo ID administration by Microneedle Adapter (Model UAR-2S) and hypodermic needle + syringe of 100 μL injectable saline into 3 different regions: the inner forearm, the deltoid and the thigh, at three (3) study visits. A total of 4 injections (2 x 50 μL saline and 2 x 100 μL saline) will be administered to each study participant in the injection sites (2 injections per inner forearm/deltoid/thigh and 2 injection per device).
Treatment:
Device: Hypodermic needle + syringe
Device: Microneedle Adapter (Model UAR-2S)
