Understanding the impact of API solubility on the performance of a given drug product and determining ways to enhance dissolution rates is critical to ensuring your product makes it to market, into the hands of patients and clinicians, is well absorbed and provides its intended therapeutic effect. Selecting the best formulation strategy to address challenges for each API, however, can be time-consuming, costly and complex.

When it comes to viral vectors, the complexities related to varying serotypes and different sized payloads continue to impact efficiencies and timelines. Hear from Resilience experts on how innovative platform technologies can overcome these challenges and support scalable manufacturing.

Do you face challenges when it comes to the particle quality in your granulation process? In order to produce granules with the desired properties, scale-up is crucial, in addition to looking at the process parameters. After all, the path of a drug from the laboratory to production holds many a surprise. Especially in the case of particles for inhalers, the mixing process plays a decisive role. Learn what you need to consider to produce the perfect particle. This whitepaper reveals expert know-how on the mixing details, the key figures to consider and the positive effects using the practical example of inhalants.

Problems can arise when sponsors face balancing available budget and time resources between clinical and chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) needs. Because of their high-profile importance in development, clinical needs get the emphasis, while the many CMC needs and risks may seem less critical. Unfortunately, as time passes, there is an increased risk of CMC issues becoming more complicated, time-consuming, and expensive to fix. Learn how to avoid these roadblocks by reading this white paper from Societal™ CDMO.

The relationship you build with your executive sponsor (ES) is the most critical relationship you will build with your CDMO partner and will serve as the foundation for long-term commercial success. At the core of vendor selection activities, it is vital to understand the CDMO’s flexibility and culture, models and scale of equipment, technical and analytical capabilities, regulatory support, quality system, and audit inspection history – and it is equally as vital to understand its executive sponsorship model. Learn more about why this is a vital component of your process.

Do you want to develop an oral controlled release (OCR) product? If so, you’ll quickly realize there are a lot of questions to answer. What do you want the final dosage form to do? What formulation and process approach are you going to use? What traps and roadblocks might you encounter? Understanding the options and their ramifications is the first step toward devising a plan.

An overview of Societal CDMO’s capabilities within the pharmaceutical space. Societal™ CDMO is a bi-coastal contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) with capabilities spanning pre-Investigational New Drug (IND) development to commercial manufacturing and packaging for a wide range of therapeutic dosage forms with a primary focus in the area of small molecules
