In this article, Chief Editor Tom von Gunden explores the need for and existence of cross-functional communication during drug product development and delivery device selection. He consults industry veterans with experience in various formulation or delivery roles at GSK and Merck. They identify the Target Product Profile (TPP) as the core concept guiding collaboration.

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Next-Gen Drug Delivery: Rethinking Routes For New Therapies, Carolyn Dorgan, director of technical services at device design consultancy Suttons Creek, lays out the phases and key activities in the development of a combination product or combination therapy. She underscores the importance of integrated development when merging medicinal product development with delivery device development. 

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event EDDOs Revisited: Putting Essential Drug Delivery Outputs Into Practice, consultant Susan Neadle of Combination Products Consulting Services, LLC, and Alan Stevens, regulatory head of complex devices and drug delivery systems at AbbVie, use a hypothetical case study for an on-body injector (OBI) to demonstrate a template for identifying EDDOs.

When and how might using a uFMEA (Use Failure Mode Effects Analysis) tool benefit biopharma companies addressing regulatory expectations for analyses of risk and/or human factors? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Natalie, Abts, head of human factors engineering at Genentech, and Shannon Hoste, chief scientific officer at Pathway for Patient Health, discuss potential differences in the contexts, purposes, and degrees of detail in information presented for review.

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event EDDOs Revisited: Putting Essential Drug Delivery Outputs Into Practice, consultant Susan Neadle of Combination Products Consulting Services, LLC, and Alan Stevens, regulatory head of complex devices and drug delivery systems at AbbVie, use a hypothetical case study for a prefilled syringe (PFS) to demonstrate a template for identifying EDDOs.
