Uneedle.com is a healthcare startup that specializes in the design and manufacturing of silicon microneedles for intradermal and intraocular injections. The company's primary product, Bella-mu, is designed to make intradermal injections easier to administer, particularly for companies developing cancer vaccines. These vaccines could be based on a variety of substances, including neoantigens, whole-tumor-cells, mRNA, DNA, peptides, viral vectors, or dendritic cells.
Intradermal injections are those given into the dermis, or second layer of skin, and are often used in allergy testing and tuberculosis screening. Uneedle's product simplifies this process, potentially leading to enhanced immune responses, reduced antigen required, easier administration, and increased patient compliance.
In addition to intradermal injections, Uneedle also develops products for intraocular injections, specifically suprachoroidal injections, which are used to deliver medication to the back of the eye. Their product, Bella-Vue, is currently for research purposes only and could be beneficial for companies developing therapies for conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, retinitis pigmentosa, or macular edema.
Uneedle operates in the healthcare market, serving pharmaceutical companies and research institutions. The company's business model revolves around co-developing medicinal products with these partners. As a certified manufacturer, Uneedle generates revenue by selling their proprietary silicon microneedles and collaborating with pharmaceutical companies on product development.
