Qualtrak Real-Time PCR and Digital PCR Ecosystem for Streamlined Biologics Development
Developing and manufacturing biologics requires compliant technologies and methods that provide excellent accuracy, consistency, and quality control (QC) with continuous automation potential to ensure the best possible product is delivered in the right time frame. PCR methods that enable quantification of target nucleic acid sequences—namely quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and digital PCR (dPCR)—have become core technologies for delivering high-quality results in a range of applications throughout biologics development and biomanufacturing. qPCR and dPCR methods are the gold standards for sensitive, specific detection and quantification of nucleic acid targets, which are useful for QC testing a wide variety of biologic characteristics.
Flexible-Dosage Development Strategies for Today's Clinical Landscape
January 8th 2025This executive summary focuses on dose-flexible manufacturing strategies and their role in drug development. Dose flexibility is increasingly important for early clinical studies, particularly in areas such as pediatric medicines and oncology. However, flexible dosing strategies are often neglected or not prioritized early in development. This presentation will focus on technical strategies that can help anticipate appropriate timing for implementation and how to do so cost effectively while adhering to required timelines.
Diving Deep into Carrier-Based Formulation and Process Optimization
December 23rd 2024Carrier-based formulations for dry powder inhalers are carefully designed to transport extremely small particles into the lungs. Jet milling can be used to micronize these particles, with both high and low shear mixing processes used to formulate mixtures capable of carrying the fine API particles into the deep lung. This paper looks at the requirements for pulmonary delivery via carrier-based inhaled powder formulations, and how jet milling can be used to manufacture effective and stable materials for these formulations
Molecular Properties of PROTACs and the Relationship to Formulation Design
December 20th 2024Analyzation of a diverse set of PROTAC (Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras – a class of TPDs) structures and their calculated properties, identifying key structure-property trends that contribute to low oral bioavailability.
Clinical Supply Planning in Europe - Balancing Cost, Flexibility and Time
December 19th 2024The packaging and distribution of clinical supplies is a fundamental piece to the overall success of a clinical trial, and advance preparation can help establish a more efficient supply chain. Selecting the best geographical location for those activities, however, depends on the clinical trial protocol, business decisions, and even the investigational medicinal product (IMP) being studied.
