摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide swallowable devices, preparations and methods for delivering therapeutic agents (TA) within the GI tract. Many embodiments provide a swallowable device such as a capsule for delivering TAs into the intestinal wall (IW) or other GI location. Embodiments also provide various TA preparations such as IgG that are configured to be contained within the capsule, advanced from the capsule into the IW and degrade to release the TA into the bloodstream where they exhibit a selected plasma concentration profile which may have selected pharmacokinetic parameters. The preparation can be operably coupled to a delivery means having a first configuration where the preparation is contained in the capsule and a second configuration where the preparation is advanced out of the capsule into the IW. Embodiments of the invention are particularly useful for the delivery of drugs which are poorly absorbed, tolerated and/or degraded within the GI tract.
