Technical Field The present disclosure generally relates to a container holder assembly. In particular, a container holder assembly for a medicament delivery device and a medicament delivery device comprising a container holder assembly, are provided.

Background Many medicament delivery devices, such as injectors, are often developed for self-administration where the user performs the injection. In some medicament delivery devices, a distal end of an injection needle protrudes into the interior of a container. This could be a drawback if the medicament reacts with the material of the inj ection needle when exposed for a period of time. In that respect, it is desirable to have the distal end of the injection needle outside the container until the injection is to be performed. On the other hand, this then requires that the distal end of the injection needle could be moved fairly easily into the container and also that the distal end of the injection needle is kept in a sterile environment until it is moved into the container.

Some types of medicaments can be stored for a long time and may be filled in containers, such as cartridges, syringes, ampoules, canisters or the like, containing a ready-to-use medicament in liquid state. However, some types of medicaments are a mixture of two substances, typically a medicament agent (such as lyophilized, powdered or concentrated liquid) and a diluent

(such as water, dextrose solution or saline solution). These types of medicaments cannot be pre-mixed and stored for a long time because the medicament agent is unstable and will lose its effect quickly due to degradation. Hence, a user has to perform the mixing within a limited time period prior to the delivery of a dose of medicament by operating a medicament delivery device. Furthermore, some types of medicaments are sensitive to fast mixing and thus they must be mixed slowly.

In order to facilitate the mixing, a number of containers for medicament have been developed comprising at least two chambers, known as multi-chamber containers. Multi-chamber containers typically comprise a first chamber containing the medicament agent and at least one second chamber containing the diluent. These chambers maybe sealed off with a stopper such that the medicament agents do not become degraded. When the medicament agent is to be mixed shortly before administering and the stopper is moved, redirecting passages are opened between the chambers. The passages allow the mixing of the medicament agent and the diluent. After sufficient mixing, the medicament is ready for delivery. Normally, delivery is performed by using injection devices wherein the multi-chamber container is arranged, more specifically in a container holder. After the mixing is performed, an injection needle having a needle sheath must be attached to the container holder and the. The step of attaching the injection needle to the container holder and thereafter removing the needle sheath is cumbersome and complicated for some users. WO 2014076225 Ai discloses an injection needle assembly having opposite distal and proximal ends, comprising: a retainer member configured to be connectable to a medicament container; a hub configured to be coaxially displaceable within the retainer member and provided with an injection needle having proximal and distal pointed ends; and a cap member interactively connected to both the hub and to the retainer member.

WO 2009147026 Ai an injection device for manually penetrating a needle arranged to the device and automatically injecting a medicament mixture.

According to one aspect, there is provided a container holder assembly for a medicament delivery device, the container holder assembly comprising a container holder and a needle assembly, wherein the container holder comprises a distal tubular body for receiving a multi-chamber container therein, the distal tubular body comprising an external surface and a distal body engaging structure on the external surface configured to movably engage an actuator device of the medicament delivery device in order to releasably connect the container holder to the actuator device; and a proximal tubular part comprising a proximal body engaging structure connected to the needle assembly; wherein the needle assembly comprises a hub having an injection needle with a distal needle end and a proximal needle end, the distal needle end being isolated from the multi-chamber container when the multi-chamber container is received in the distal tubular body.

The container holder assembly according enables a medicament delivery device to be delivered to a user with a pre-assembled needle assembly. The container holder assembly further enables connection to an actuator device prior to a medicament dose expulsion and disconnection from the actuator device after the medicament dose expulsion.

The injection needle may be fixedly held by the hub. The proximal needle end may extend proximally from the hub and the distal needle end may extend distally from the hub. The hub may be configured to be axially displaced relative to the container holder.

The distal tubular body maybe elongated along a longitudinal axis of the container holder assembly. The distal tubular body, the proximal tubular part, the hub and/or the injection needle maybe substantially coaxial, or coaxial, with the longitudinal axis.

The distal tubular body maybe substantially cylindrical, or cylindrical. In this case, an interior length of the distal tubular body may be at least two times, such as at least three time, such as at least five times, an inner diameter of the distal tubular body.

The needle assembly is pre-assembled to the container holder before the multi-chamber container is received in the distal tubular body.

The distal body engaging structure may be an external thread. The external thread maybe continuous or discontinuous. With external thread is meant an exterior thread. Thus, the external thread may comprise a protrusion, a recess, or both.

The distal body engaging structure may be configured to threadingly engage a housing part of the medicament delivery device. To this end, the distal body engaging structure may or may not be a thread. As a possible alternative, the distal body engaging structure may comprise one or more protrusions threadingly engaging with a thread in the housing part. However, it is also feasible that the distal body is configured to linearly engage the housing part of the medicament delivery device such that distal body can be linearly moved into the housing part without rotation.

The distal needle end may be arranged to penetrate a membrane arranged at a proximal end of the multi-chamber container by means of the axial distal displacement of the hub. The container holder assembly may further comprise a sterile barrier between the membrane and the hub. The sterile barrier may for example be provided in the proximal tubular part. Also the sterile barrier maybe penetrated by the distal needle end by means of the axial distal displacement of the hub.

The needle assembly may further comprise a needle cover covering the injection needle, the needle cover comprising a distal cover engaging structure engaging the proximal body engaging structure to connect the proximal tubular part to the needle assembly. The needle cover and the cap may be an integral component. Alternatively, the cap may be provided outside the needle cover. In this case, the needle assembly may further comprise a clutch. The cap may cooperate with the needle cover via the clutch such that when the user rotates the cap in one direction, the cap and the needle cover rotate together and move proximally along the longitudinal axis. When the needle cover rotates, the hub rotates in the same direction but also moves distally along the longitudinal axis. In this way, the cap and the needle cover can be removed at the same time as, or slightly after, the distal needle end pierces the membrane of the multi-chamber container by rotation of the cap. The clutch may be a ratcheting freewheel mechanism.

The container holder assembly further comprises a tamper indication member. The tamper indication member is unbroken until the cap is removed from the container holder i8. The tamper indication member breaks to indicate tampering.

In the following, a container holder assembly for a medicament delivery device and a medicament delivery device comprising a container holder assembly, will be described. The same or similar reference numerals will be used to denote the same or similar structural features. Fig. 1 schematically represents a perspective view of a medicament delivery device 10. Fig. 2 schematically represents a further perspective view of the medicament delivery device 10. With collective reference to Figs. 1 and 2, the medicament delivery device 10 of this example is an injection device. The medicament delivery device 10 comprises a container holder assembly 12 and an actuator device 14. In Figs. 1 and 2, a longitudinal axis 16 of the medicament delivery device 10 is shown. The container holder assembly 12 comprises a container holder 18 and a needle assembly 20. The container holder 18 is connected to the needle assembly 20. Figs. 1 and 2 illustrate the medicament delivery device 10 as received by the user. Thus, the medicament delivery device 10 is delivered with the needle assembly 20 connected to the container holder 18. The actuator device 14 maybe for multiple use and the container holder assembly 12 may be disposable.

The container holder 18 comprises a distal tubular body 22 and a proximal tubular part 24. A multi-chamber container (not shown) is accommodated inside the distal tubular body 22. The distal tubular body 22 comprises an external surface. On the external surface of the distal tubular body 22, a distal body engaging structure 26 is provided. The distal body engaging structure 26 is exemplified as an external thread, here a continuous external thread.

The distal tubular body 22 of this example further comprises a first indicator 28, a second indicator 30 and a third indicator 32, indicated by the numbers

" ₁ ", „ ₂ „ _an(j g.., respectively. The first indicator ₂ 8 and the second indicator 30 are arranged on one side of the distal tubular body 22, and the third indicator 32 is arranged on an opposite side of the distal tubular body 22. The first indicator 28 is arranged distally of the second indicator 30 and the third indicator 32, the second indicator 30 is arranged between the first indicator 28 and the third indicator 32, and the third indicator 32 is arranged proximally of the first indicator 28 and the second indicator 30.

The container holder 18 further comprises two wings 34. In this example, the wings 34 are provided on the distal tubular body 22. The wings 34 assist the user to rotate the container holder 18.

The needle assembly 20 of this example comprises a cap 36. The cap 36 is provided around an injection needle (not shown). The cap 36 is generally cylindrical.

The container holder assembly 12 further comprises a tamper indication member 38. In Figs. 1 and 2, the tamper indication member 38 is unbroken. When the cap 36 is removed from the container holder 18, the tamper indication member 38 breaks to indicatetampering.

The actuator device 14 comprises a housing part 40. The medicament delivery device 10 is configured to cause mixing of at least two substances in the multi-chamber container by manually moving the container holder 18 into the housing part 40.

By means of the distal body engaging structure 26, the distal tubular body 22 can movable engage the housing part 40 and the distal tubular body 22 is releasably connected to the housing part 40. Thus, the container holder 18 or the entire container holder assembly 12 can be entirely separated from the housing part 40. In this example, the distal tubular body 22 threadingly engages the housing part 40 by means of the distal body engaging structure 26.

The housing part 40 of this example is cylindrical. The container holder 18 can be at least partly received inside the housing part 40.

The actuator device 14 of this example further comprises a housing part 42. Thus, the housing part 40 is a proximal housing part and the housing part 42 is a distal housing part. In this example, the distal housing part 40 is threadingly connected to the proximal housing part 40. The actuator device 14 of this example further comprises a button 44. The button 44 is arranged at a distal end of the actuator device 14.

The housing part 40 comprises an opening 46. As shown in Fig. 1, the first indicator 28 is aligned with the opening 46 and is visible through the opening 46. Since the first indicator 28 is aligned with the opening 46, the container holder 18 is in a first position with respect to the housing part 40. The second indicator 30 and the third indicator 32 can also be aligned with, and visible through, the opening 46 when the container holder 18 adopts a second position and a third position, respectively, along the longitudinal axis 16 with respect to the housing part 40. The housing part 40 further comprises a first engageable device feature here exemplified as a first recess 48, a second engageable device feature here exemplified as a second recess 50, and a third engageable device feature here exemplified as a third recess 52. The distal tubular body 22 comprises an engaging body structure, here exemplified as a flexible tab 54. In the illustrated first position of the container holder 18, the flexible tab 54 releasably engages the first recess 48. The flexible tab 54 further engages the second recess 50 and the third recess 52 when the container holder 18 adopts the second position and the third position, respectively. In this way, the container holder 18 can be accurately positioned relative to the housing part 40 and the user is provided with tactile and audible feedback when the flexible tab 54 engages the respective recess 48, 50 and 52.

Fig.3 schematically represents a cross-sectional side view of the medicament delivery device 10. In Fig. 3, the multi-chamber container 56 can be seen. The multi-chamber container 56 of this example is a dual-chamber container comprising a proximal stopper 58 and a distal stopper6o.

As shown in Fig. 3, the needle assembly 20 comprises, in addition to the cap 36, a hub 62 having an injection needle 64. Also the hub 62 and the injection needle 64 are concentric with respect to the longitudinal axis 16. The injection needle 64 is fixedly held by the hub 62. The needle assembly 20 is configured such that manual rotation of the cap 36 in one direction is translated to a distal movement of the hub 62 along the longitudinal axis 16.

The needle assembly 20 of this example further comprises a needle cover 66. The needle cover 66 is generally cylindrical and covers the injection needle 64. The needle cover 66 is provided radially outside the injection needle 64 and the hub 62, and radially inside the cap 36 (with respect to the longitudinal axis 16).

The needle assembly 20 of this specific example further comprises a clutch 68. The clutch 68 is provided between the cap 36 and the needle cover 66. The clutch 68 transmits rotation of the cap 36 in one direction to a rotation of the needle cover 66, the hub 62 and the injection needle 64, but does not transmit rotation of the cap 36 in an opposite direction to any rotation of the needle cover 66, the hub 62 or the injection needle 64.

As shown in Fig. 3, the distal tubular body 22 is elongated along the longitudinal axis 16. A length of the distal tubular body 22 along the longitudinal axis 16 is more than five times an interior diameter of the distal tubular body 22.

As further shown in Fig. 3, the housing part 40 comprises a housing engaging structure 70, here exemplified as a relatively short threaded portion at a proximal interior end of the housing part 40. The distal body engaging structure 26 threadingly engages the housing engaging structure 70.

Fig. 3 further shows that the actuator device 14 comprises an actuator 72, an actuator sleeve 74, a locking spring 76, a plunger rod 78, a plunger spring 80 and a guide rod 82. The plunger spring 80 surrounds the guide rod 82. The plunger rod 78 surrounds the plunger spring 80. The actuator 72, the actuator sleeve 74 and the locking spring 76 surround the plunger rod 78. In the first position of the container holder 18 illustrated in Fig. 3, the actuator sleeve 74 surrounds the actuator 72.

Fig. 4 schematically represents a cross-sectional and partially exploded perspective view of the container holder assembly 12, Fig. 5 schematically represents a cross-sectional partial side view of the container holder assembly 12, and Fig. 6 schematically represents a cross-sectional and perspective partial side view of the container holder assembly 12. With collective reference to Figs. 4-6, a proximal needle end 84 and a distal needle end 86 of the injection needle 64 can be seen. The proximal needle end 84 extends proximally from the hub 62 and the distal needle end 86 extends distally from the hub 62.

As shown in Figs. 4-6, the multi-chamber container 56 comprises a membrane 88 at a proximal end thereof. The multi-chamber container 56 is entirely accommodated inside the container holder 18. A major part of the multi-chamber container 56 is accommodated inside the distal tubular body 22 and a proximal end of the multi-chamber container 56 is accommodated inside the proximal tubular part 24. The multi-chamber container 56 of this example is attached to the container holder 18 by means of a snap-fit connection to the interior of the proximal tubular part 24.

The container holder 18 further comprises a sterile barrier 90, here exemplified as a transverse wall. The barrier 90 sealingly closes a proximal interior portion of the proximal tubular part 24 from a distal interior portion of the proximal tubular part 24. In Figs. 5 and 6, it is shown that the distal needle end 86 is isolated from the multi-chamber container 56 when the multi-chamber container 56 is received in the distal tubular body 22. The distal needle end 86 is separated from the multi-chamber container 56 by means of the membrane 88 and the barrier 90. As shown in Figs. 4-6, the proximal tubular part 24 comprises a proximal body engaging structure 92, here exemplified as a proximal external thread. The needle cover 66 comprises a distal cover engaging structure 94, here exemplified as a distal interior thread. The needle cover 66 is connected to the proximal tubular part 24 by means of a threaded engagement between the distal cover engaging structure 94 and the proximal body engaging structure

92. In this way, the needle assembly 20 is connected to the proximal tubular part 24 by means of the proximal body engaging structure 92.

The proximal tubular part 24 further comprises a proximal internal engaging structure 96, here exemplified as a proximal internal thread. The hub 62 comprises a distal external engaging structure 98, here exemplified as a distal external thread. The hub 62 is connected to the proximal tubular part 24 by means of a threaded engagement between the distal external engaging structure 98 and the proximal internal engaging structure 96.

The hub 62 further comprises proximal external grooves 100. The needle cover 66 further comprises interior ribs 102. The interior ribs 102 extend parallel with the longitudinal axis 16, in this example along more than half of a length of the needle cover 66. The proximal external grooves too engage a respective interior rib 102. By means of this engagement, rotation of the needle cover 66 is transmitted to a rotation of the hub 62. The engagement however enables the hub 62 to move along the longitudinal axis 16 relative to the needle cover 66.

Fig. 6 further shows that an arrow 104 is provided on the cap 36. The arrow 104 indicates a rotational direction of the cap 36 in order to remove the cap 36. Fig. 7 schematically represents a cross-sectional and partially exploded perspective view of the actuator device 14, Fig. 8 schematically represents a cross-sectional partial side view of the actuator device 14, and Fig. 9 schematically represents a cross-sectional and perspective partial side view of the actuator device 14. With collective reference to Figs. 7-9, the actuator 72 comprises two hooks 106, here provided at a distal end of the actuator 72. The distal housing part 42 comprises a stop 108. The stop 108 protrudes radially inwards (with respect to the longitudinal axis 16). When the container holder 18 is in the first position with respect to the actuator device 14, the actuator 72 is locked since the hooks 106 engage the stop 108. The actuator 72 of this example further comprises two flexible arms 110 projecting proximally. Each flexible arm 110 comprises a protrusion 112. The plunger rod 78 comprises a circumferential groove 114. When the container holder 18 is in the first position with respect to the actuator device 14, the protrusions 112 are seated in the groove 114 and held in the groove 114 by the actuator sleeve 74.

In the following, one exemplifying use of the medicament delivery device 10 will be described. The user may receive the medicament delivery device 10 with the container holder 18 connected to the housing part 40, the needle assembly 20 connected to the container holder 18, and a multi-chamber container 56 loaded into the distal tubular body 22. As an alternative, the user may receive the container holder assembly 12 comprising the container holder 18 and the needle assembly 20, where the needle assembly 20 is connected to the container holder 18, and where a multi-chamber container 56 is loaded into the distal tubular body 22. In this case, the user may connect the container holder assembly 12 to the actuator device 14 by manually screwing the container holder 18 into the housing part 40 to the first position. The user knows when the housing part 40 has adopted the first position since the flexible tab 54 releasably engages the first recess 48 with a clicking sound and since the first indicator 28 (number "1") is visible through the opening 46.

In order to mix different substances contained in the multi-chamber container 56, the container holder 18 is manually rotated relatively to the housing part 40, e.g. by means of the wings 34. The container holder 18 thereby moves into the housing part 40 in a distal direction along the longitudinal axis 16. During movement of the container holder 18 from the first position towards the second position, the plunger rod 78, which is static in relation to the housing part 40, eventually shifts the distal stopper 60 proximally into the multi-chamber container 56 such that medicaments inside the multi-chamber container 56 become completely mixed. The manual rotation continues until the container holder 18 has moved from the first position to the second position. The user knows when the housing part 40 has adopted the second position and that mixing has been completed since the flexible tab 54 releasably engages the second recess 50 with a clicking sound and since the second indicator 30 (number "2") is visible through the opening 46.

In order to prime the medicament delivery device 10, the user manually rotates the container holder 18 further relative to the housing part 40. As the container holder 18 moves from the second position towards the third position, the container holder 18 pushes the actuator sleeve 74 distally. The distal movement of the actuator sleeve 74 forces the hooks 106 inwardly away from the stop 108 to thereby unlock the actuator 72. The manual rotation continues until the container holder 18 has moved from the second position to the third position. The user knows when the housing part 40 has adopted the third position and that priming has been completed since the flexible tab 54 releasably engages the third recess 52 with a clicking sound and since the third indicator 32 (number "3") is visible through the opening 46.

Either before or after priming, the user grabs and rotates the cap 36 in the direction illustrated by arrow 104 (Fig. 6) about the longitudinal axis 16. The rotation of the cap 36 in this direction is transmitted by the clutch 68 to a rotation in the same direction of the needle cover 66. As the needle cover 66 is rotated, the needle cover 66 moves proximally relative to the proximal tubular part 24 due to the engagement between the distal cover engaging structure 94 and the proximal body engaging structure 92. Due to this relative movement between the needle cover 66 and the proximal tubular part 24, the tamper indication member 38 breaks.

Furthermore, as the needle cover 66 is rotated, the hub 62 is rotated in the same direction due to the engagement between the interior ribs 102 and the proximal external grooves 100. As the hub 62 is rotated, the hub 62 travels distally along the longitudinal axis 16 due to the engagement between the distal external engaging structure 98 and the proximal internal engaging structure 96. As the hub 62 travels distally, the distal needle end 86 pierces the barrier 90 and the membrane 88.

When the cap 36 is rotated further, the needle cover 66 eventually disengages completely from the proximal tubular part 24. The cap 36, the clutch 68 and the needle cover 66 can then be removed to expose the proximal needle end

84.

The proximal needle end 84 of the injection needle 64 then pierces an injection site of a user. When the user pushes the button 44, the button 44 pushes the plunger rod 78 and forces the plunger rod 78 proximally. Since the protrusions 112 of the flexible arms 110 are engaged in the groove 114 of the plunger rod 78, the actuator 72 is moved proximally by the plunger rod 78. When the flexible arms 110 pass the proximal end of the actuator sleeve 74, the plunger rod 78 is released and thereby delivers the medicament through the injection needle 64. Thus, by pressing the button 44, the medicament is automatically expelled into the inj ection site.

When the medicament has been expelled from the multi-chamber container 56, the plunger spring 80 forces the actuator 72 distally against the button 44 and thereby produces an audible and tactile feedback to the user indicating injection completion. The container holder 18 may then be screwed out from the housing part 40 until the container holder 18 is disconnected from the actuator device 14. The container holder 18 and the empty multi-chamber container 56 can then be discarded and the actuator device 14 can be loaded with a new container holder assembly 12 comprising a new container holder 18 holding a full multi-chamber container 56 and being connected to a new needle assembly 20.

While the present disclosure has been described with reference to exemplary embodiments, it will be appreciated that the present invention is not limited to what has been described above. For example, it will be appreciated that the dimensions of the parts maybe varied as needed. Accordingly, it is intended that the present invention maybe limited only by the scope of the claims appended hereto.
