Provia™Injectable Gel for Targeted, Slow-Release Delivery

Provia™ is Likarda’s versatile, injectable polymer gel designed for the slow release of biologics, small molecules, or diagnostic agents directly at the site of action. Unlike microbead formats, Provia™ does not require our Core-Shell Spherification® (CSS®) instrument to produce, making it an off-the-shelf solution for rapid deployment.

How It Works

Once injected, Provia™ forms a localized depot that gradually releases its payload over time. This sustained release helps maintain consistent therapeutic levels, reducing the need for frequent dosing and minimizing systemic exposure.
