Capsule formulations to improve delivery of poorly absorbable drugs
March 2nd 2022Wednesday March 2, 2022 at 11am EST | 4pm GMT | 5pm CET Compounds that are poorly soluble in water are still prevalent in the pharmaceutical industry drug development pipeline. Enabling technologies such as lipid-based formulations (LBF) and amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) can address these bioavailability limitations, enabling the creation of effective drug products.
Improving Solubility and Accelerating Drug Development through Integrated Programs
February 23rd 2022Wednesday, February 23rd 2022 at 11am EST | 5pm CET | Molecules with solubility challenges continue to dominate drug development pipelines, increasing the demand for formulation technologies that can solve these issues. Join CMC Consultant, Peter Timmins, Lonza’s Sr. Research Fellow, David Lyon, and Quotient Sciences’ CSO, Peter Scholes, as they outline how a variety of data-driven strategies and integrated program designs can simplify development processes and reduce costs. Using expert insight and case studies they will showcase how spray drying can solve solubility challenges, and demonstrate how integrating GMP manufacturing and clinical testing can rapidly accelerate development timelines.
Dry Powder Inhalation Delivery of Monoclonal Antibodies
July 22nd 2021Thursday, July 22, 2021 at 11am EDT| 8am PDT| 4pm BST| 5pm CEST Local delivery of monoclonal antibodies to the lung is enabled by spray drying to manufacture stable, respirable dry powders. An inhaled formulation of bevacizumab was effective in vivo, reducing tumor burden in a rat model of non-small cell lung cancer.
