YpsoDot – The 2-step fixed-dose pen delivering up to 1 mL

YpsoDot is a fixed-dose, pull-and-push pen supporting patients with a clear, confirmed sequence designed to facilitate correct use from the first injection.

Effortless simplicity by design

A simplified device profile is a commercial and regulatory asset. A lower use-error profile is designed to reduce the burden of Human Factors studies, support a stronger combination product dossier, and give HCP training programs a shorter, more scalable path. In a market where payers increasingly tie reimbursement to adherence evidence, device simplicity becomes a differentiator on label, in HTA submissions, and in market access negotiations.

  • Two active steps for fixed-dose injection sequence: pull & push
  • Pull-to-load mechanism eliminates dose dialing at source​
  • Active dose-stop mechanically prevents over-delivery
  • Visual and tactile confirmation cues at both load and inject steps​
  • No priming step, reducing handling complexity and drug waste while simplifying and speeding up final assembly
  • Simplified HCP training for shorter, more scalable instruction pathway

Handling steps Simply pull and push

A simplified device profile is a commercial and regulatory asset. A lower use-error profile is designed to reduce the burden of Human Factors studies, support a stronger combination product dossier, and give HCP training programs a shorter, more scalable path. In a market where payers increasingly tie reimbursement to adherence evidence, device simplicity becomes a differentiator on label, in HTA submissions, and in market access negotiations.

A single pull motion loads the fixed dose. No dialing. No priming. The device comes pre-filled and ready to use. Cartridge handling and loading is removed from the equation entirely.
Press against the injection site and push. The active dose-stop mechanically prevents over-delivery. Visual and tactile cues confirm each step is complete.

No priming step Ready to use

Reduces handling complexity, eliminates drug waste, and simplifies final assembly for manufacturing partners.

Fixed-dose delivery up to 1.0 mL

Next-generation therapies are pushing beyond what conventional pens can deliver, in dose volume and in formulation complexity. Selecting the right delivery platform is not just a procurement choice; it establishes the foundation for your product’s entire commercial lifecycle. This is a strategic decision that impacts long-term success.

  • Fixed-dose range 0.2-1.0 mL, covering the next-gen biologics dose spectrum
  • Supports high-viscosity biologics beyond standard aqueous formulations
  • Pre-filled, ready-to-use: no patient cartridge handling or loading
  • Platform architecture enables dose variants across the therapy lifecycle without device redesign

Multi-use cartridge

From 3 injections at 1.0 mL to up to 15 injections at 0.2 mL per pen, with standard 3 mL cartridge. Partially filled cartridges also compatible.

Multi-use, mono-material built for the circular economy

The injection device industry generates tens of millions of discarded injectors every year. YpsoDot was designed to reduce that burden – and to give pharma partners a sustainability argument that runs from the ESG report to the market access dossier.

  • Mono-material construction: single recyclable polymer stream
  • Bio-based plastic reduces reliance on virgin fossil-derived polymer
  • Multi-use cartridge: one YpsoDot offers the option to replace multiple disposable autoinjectors per monthly regimen
  • Reduced CO2 per injection (vs. comparable platforms)
