Today on the show we talk with CEO of Lyndra Therapeutics, Dr. Patricia Hurter, and President and COO Jessica Ballinger. Lyndra Therapeutics is reinventing the way we take medicine with game-changing technology that helps patients take oral medications less frequently, using a long-acting delivery system.

In this episode, they discuss how Lyndra Therapeutics has created a diverse and mission-focused team to overcome the challenges surrounding the need to take life-improving medicine on a daily basis.

 

What we discussed:

  • Trish details how Lyndra Therapeutics is developing oral long-acting therapies that allow you to take your medicine much less often, sometime once a week or even once a month
  • Discussion of the prominent female leadership throughout the company and how Lyndra created such a diverse collection of talent
  • Jessica describes Lyndra’s three core values and the impact those have throughout the company
  • How Lyndra is able to consistently ensure they are “walking the walk” when it comes to its commitment to diversity of ideas, interests, and backgrounds
  • Why Lyndra is focusing its efforts on developing a long-acting medicine and how it will be a game-changer
  • How the dosage form works and the significant impact the freedom from injectables and daily pills has on patients and providers
  • Lyndra’s important work to combat the opioid crisis and allow patients to travel only once per week, instead of daily, to receive their medication
  • The challenges around developing this kind of oral medication and how Lyndra has become successful in overcoming them
  • How Lyndra is focusing its efforts in 2022 and beyond
