TruTag Technologies Launches SiCare Bio as a Novel Drug Delivery Platform

KAPOLEI, HI, October 23, 2024 — TruTag Technologies, Inc. today announced the launch of a new business unit, SiCare Bio, which is focused on enabling the next generation of precision nano-therapeutics.

Over the last decade, TruTag has become the global leader in the manufacture of high-precision, bio- compatible nanoporous silica (nPSi). SiCare Bio now will leverage this manufacturing expertise to offer a novel drug delivery platform to the pharmaceutical industry. SiCare Bio’s platform has two primary applications – targeted-drug delivery via its nPSi nanoparticles and extended-release drug delivery via its nPSi microparticles. SiCare Bio is already working with three pharmaceutical companies and expects to have a number of additional companies onboarded by the end of the year.

TruTag CEO Barry McDonogh said, “Our nPSi particles are highly differentiated versus other forms of commodity mesoporous silica being used in drug delivery today. Our proprietary processes developed over the last ten years enable superior loading efficiency and smoother payload expression compared to alternative silica-based platforms. There has been significant interest in our solution already, and we currently are engaged in development programs with leading pharmaceutical companies. Our goal is to work with these development partners to bring safe and efficacious therapies to market.”

The SiCare Bio business unit will remain wholly owned by TruTag. To learn more about SiCare Bio, go to SiCareBio.com
