Vaccine publishes independent survey showing overwhelming preference for Needle-free technology in large-scale intradermal polio vaccination campaign
The campaign, sponsored by the World Health Organization as part of its polio eradication efforts, vaccinated 500,000 children, aged 4 – 59 months, over a one-week period in early 2019. Data on acceptability of the PharmaJet Tropis Needle-Free Injection System was collected from 610 vaccinators and 4,898 caregivers. Of those with prior needle and syringe… Details
Study published in Clinical Cancer Research cites important progress towards new treatments for cancer using PharmaJet Tropis
Invectys published the results of their Phase I clinical trial testing their immune-therapeutic DNA cancer vaccine, INVAC-1, using the PharmaJet needle-free injection system (Teixeira et al, 2019). The publication cites that “administration with the PharmaJet Tropis is immunogenic and able to elicit hTERT specific CD4 and CD8 immune responses in patients. Details
Study published in Viruses shows superior response with PharmaJet Tropis over electroporation
Bernelin-Cottet et al published a study that demonstrates the delivery of a DNA-based swine influenza vaccine with the PharmaJet Tropis Needle-free Jet Injector resulted in an increased cellular uptake as compared with administration via needle and syringe followed by electroporation. Importantly, administration by Tropis resulted in a non-inferior immune response, a more efficient cell uptake, and an equal potency to elicit an anti-Neuraminidase IgG response. Details

Needle-free Injection – Eradicating Diseases to Improve Global Health
Needle-free Injection technology has evolved significantly over the last 50 years and is now accepted in many routine immunization settings as a safe and effective vaccine delivery method. Disposable syringe jet injectors are now being used for the delivery of vaccines to eradicate polio, MMR, and influenza, and are showing promising results in vaccine clinical… Details
Clinical Study published in The Lancet shows significantly higher immune response with Needle-free injection
The Lancet recently published a study that demonstrates that the delivery of a Zika virus vaccine with the PharmaJet Stratis Needle-free Jet injector resulted in a higher immune response as compared with administration via needle and syringe. Details
Study published in Heliyon Journal shows superiority of needle-free injection over needle and syringe for poliovirus vaccine fIPV campaigns
Administration of intradermal fractional dose of inactivated poliovirus vaccine (fIPV) has proven to be safe and immunogenic; however, intradermal injection using needle and syringe is technically difficult and requires trained personnel. Details
Clinical study published in Vaccine cites superiority of two fractional doses administered intradermally to one full intramuscular dose. Expands use of PharmaJet Tropis Needle-free Injector
The polio eradication endgame strategic plan calls for the sequential removal of Sabin poliovirus serotypes from the trivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (tOPV), starting with type 2, and the introduction of ≥1 dose of inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV), to maintain an immunity base against poliovirus type 2.
