Seelos Therapeutics, Inc. announced the signing of an agreement between Seelos and AptarGroup, Inc. for the co-exclusive use and supply of Aptar Pharma's Bidose (BDS) Liquid System device for Seelos' intranasal ketamine product candidate, SLS-002, in the investigational development programs for the treatment of suicidality, depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Under the terms of the agreement, Seelos has certain rights to add other undisclosed indications to the Strategic Device Partnership. Aptar's patented BDS Liquid System has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) for the delivery of other therapeutics and, to date, millions of the Bidose and Unidose (UDS) Systems have been sold and are used daily by thousands of patients worldwide.

Aptar's BDS Liquid System is ideal for intranasal therapies, like SLS-002, where a precise delivery of active CNS drug formulations is required. The BDS Liquid System is ready-to-use, requiring no priming or shaking, making the device ideal for use in a crisis situation.
