Mati Therapeutics has designed and tested over 70 iterations of its L-shaped punctal plug drug delivery device (L-PPDS). The L-PPDS provides one-directional drug release into the tear film from a solid drug-eluting core wrapped in a non-permeable membrane. Testing shows retention rates of over 90% for the L-PPDS. Mati has formulated the L-PPDS to elute drugs for glaucoma, allergy, anti-inflammatory conditions, and dry eye over 2 weeks with a tunable initial burst. The company's intellectual property portfolio includes over 60 issued patents covering the device design and manufacturing through 2034.
