Latch Medical is developing a platform microneedle technology, centred around opposing arrays of angled microneedles that can penetrate the outer layers of the skin for consistent needle penetration without adhesive. Pharma Latch, the drug delivery device based on the platform, is suitable for the delivery of small molecules, vaccines and biologics.

In addition to drug delivery, the platform has applications in biosensing, wearables and catheter securement.

Latch Medical is based within University College Dublin’s Belfield Innovation park, is venture-funded  and in 2019 Pharma Latch  was awarded a large grant by the Irish government.

Nicky Bertollo, Ronan Byrne and Andrew Muddle introduce Pharma Latch – a user-centric angled microneedle patch technology. They discuss its key benefits, such as dramatically increased payload potential, precision, low cost and variable patch-wear times, and highlight how Pharma Latch has the potential to overcome many of the limitations of existing routes of administration for therapeutics and vaccines.
