In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Innovations In Drug Delivery: Opportunities For Enhancing Familiar, Mature Approaches, Courtney Evans, principal consultant at delivery device consultancy Suttons Creek and formerly at FDA, discusses regulatory implications of the integration or compatibility of digital applications with autoinjectors, combination products, and other drug delivery devices.
The discussion highlights key aspects of a biopharma organization’s business and operations that must be effectively integrated when developing drugs and devices in tandem. These include imperatives such as establishing common terminology, applying QbD (Quaility by Design) principles, and managing supplier controls for providers of constituent parts.
In this initial episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, a chapter-by chapter videocast series introducing topics from The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems (CRC Press, 2023), host Tom von Gunden discusses the book’s intent with its editor, Susan Neadle. The discussion focuses on the rationale for each chapter and the expert contributions of various chapter authors and co-authors.
An increasingly common obstacle to treating patients with infections is resistance to antibiotics. In this episode of Sit and Deliver, CEO William Colton of biologics platform delivery developer Paldara Pharmaceuticals talks with videocast host Tom von Gunden about infection-combatting alternatives using hydrogel-based systems to deliver bacteriophage viral therapeutics directly to infection sites.
