About Vivani Medical, Inc.
Leveraging its proprietary NanoPortal™ platform, Vivani develops biopharmaceutical implants designed to deliver drug molecules steadily over extended periods of time with the goal of guaranteeing adherence and improving patient tolerance to their medication. Today, medication non-adherence affects approximately 50% of patients. Vivani’s priority product candidate, NPM-139, is a miniature, six-month, subdermal, GLP-1 (semaglutide) implant under development for chronic weight management in obese or overweight subjects. NPM-139 has the added potential for once-yearly dosing. Vivani’s emerging pipeline also includes NPM-115 (exenatide implant) for chronic weight management in obese and overweight individuals, and NPM-119, an exenatide implant program for the treatment of type-2 diabetes. These NanoPortal implants are designed to provide patients with the opportunity to realize the full potential benefit of their medication by avoiding the numerous challenges associated with the daily or weekly administration of orals and injectables, including tolerability and loss of efficacy.
