Fuse Science Announces the Launch of its Analgesic and Diabetic Oral Fuse Delivery (OFD) Research Project Platforms
AVENTURA, Fla., Dec. 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Double Eagle Holdings, Ltd. (OTCQB: DROP), the parent company of Fuse Science, Inc. (www.fusescience.com), announced today the formal launch of its Hypoglycemic, Hyperglycemic, and Analgesic project platforms for the advancement of its OTC and pharmaceutical licensing efforts.
Some of the proprietary science platforms that Fuse Science deals with are oral fuse delivery technologies (OFD's). These OFD's are placed under the tongue or in the inner cheek of the patient where they are absorbed and release the applicable active or nutrient into the blood stream. OFD's do not require water and may be more convenient to take than liquids or injections. OFD's are especially designed to be very useful with pediatric and geriatric patients or anyone in need of faster absorption of a given active into the blood stream that bypasses the GI track, providing an alternative to the more traditional invasive drug delivery systems.
"Today we announce the further advancement of the true core of our Powered by Fuse™ technology," said Brian Tuffin, Fuse Science Chief Executive Officer. "It is with high confidence that we advance our OFD Analgesic, Hypoglycemic and Hyperglycemic project platforms with the objective of completing our pediatric and adult formulations to provide an effective sublingual and/or Buccal delivery alternative for the respective drugs."
The business opportunities from these project platforms are as follows:
- The side effects of aspirin on the stomach include bleeding of the abdomen and deterioration of the stomach lining. By bypassing the GI track with our drop technology we intend to improve performance and usage in the $2.5 billion adult analgesic category.
- The largest disease state globally is diabetes with an estimated 285 million people, corresponding to 6.4% of the world's adult population living with diabetes in 2010. The number is expected to grow to 438 million by 2030, or 7.8% of the adult population. . One major issue associated with the treatment of diabetes is lack of compliance. The ease of use associated with the OFD will help address the major compliance issues in this $25 billion dollar treatment category worldwide.
"We are extremely passionate about our work in this area," said Ed Maliski, Ph.D. & Lead scientist. "Our work is born out of diabetes sufferers on staff who are committed to advancing these platforms with sense of urgency. We have produced significant results with our OFD work and feel very confident at this stage with our ability to advance these project platforms."
"We continue to be very deliberate and focused with every step we take as a company and our efforts in the OTC and Pharmaceutical space represents the foundation to our long term focus," added Tuffin. "These actions in combination with the with the long awaited, Powered by Fuse™ EnerJel™ launch on December 30th, 2011 at www.poweredbyfuse.com are calculated steps in our effort to create long term shareholder value."
