 PROFILE
Control Delivery Systems manufactures and sells a time-released drug delivery product, called the Aeon system, through a marketing agreement with Bausch & Lomb. The company's first product that utilizes the system, called Vitrasert, has already gained FDA approval for treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis, a blinding eye disease common among AIDS patients. Vitrasert is designed to be implanted in the body so it can utilize a smaller drug dosage to help prevent side effects. The company has products for pain management, and conditions such as diabetic eye disease, brain tumors, age-related macular degeneration, and osteoarthritis, in its pipeline.
