Our programs
Discover the future therapeutic solutions of chronic rhinitis and chronic rhinosinusitis - The Dianosic Active Resorbable Intranasal Scaffolds (ARIS).
Dianosic develops the innovative ARIS platforms that benefit from proprietary drug-eluting, long-term resorbable polymer.
There a is a need for treatment paradigm change to better manage patients, optimize treatment efficacy and safety.
85 % patients suffering from chronic rhinitis do not comply with their treatment.⁷
20 % patients suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis do not respond to intranasal corticosteroids.⁸
Only 20% of nasal spray active ingredients reach the targeted treatment area.⁹
Dianosic unique platform - Created to radically transform the management of these debilitating diseases
Delivering patient centric, “insert and forget” solutions maximizing patient quality of life and addressing physicians’ needs in terms of efficacy, safety, ease of use and patient adherence to treatment.
Long term, bioresorbable, unique product architecture, designed to optimally deliver a targeted, low dose of effective drug treatment in a controled and steady manner.
Implantable “in-office” under local anesthesia, generating significant savings for the healthcare systems.
100% treatment compliance (vs 15% for nasal sprays in rhinitis¹⁰) thank to our “insert and forget” solution.
Unique scaffold architecture combined with proprietary drug-eluting, long-term resorbable polymer
Our ARIS platform has been created to address both chronic rhinitis (ARIS-R) and chronic rhinositusitis (ARIS-S) and radically differentiate from existing solutions (resorbable scaffold, “insert and forget” approach, treatment duration, targeted, low-dose, sustained drug release) .
ARIS-R
Chronic rhinitis
ARIS-R is the ideal solution for controlling symptoms in persistent, moderate to severe allergic rhinitis. It delivers locally a low dose of corticosteroid for a duration of 6 months. ARIS-R offers an alternative to intranasal corticosteroids and to more invasive therapies and resolves patient adherence to medications challenges, thus avoiding symptoms aggravation.
ARIS-S
Chronic rhinosinusitis
ARIS-S is adapted to long-term symptomatic treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis in adults. It is placed into the nasal cavity under local anesthesia during a less than 30 minutes in-office procedure. ARIS-S delivers locally a low dose or corticosteroids for 12 months offering long-term symptoms relief for patients.
NTB Solution
The NTB (Nose To Brain) program explores the significant therapeutic potential of using the intranasal route for drug delivery directly to the brain. This innovative approach targets critical needs in treating central nervous system diseases for which existing treatments face major compliance challenges and can generate significant side effects due to systemic exposure. The NTB program leverages Dianosic’s expertise in the intranasal route. This approach is based on our know-how in drug eluting polymers acquired with the ARIS-R scaffold development in Chronic Allergic Rhinitis, making it transposable to the development of solutions to treat central nervous system diseases (e.g. Schizophrenia and Parkinson).
