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, outlines key management considerations for biopharma companies developing combination therapies. These include suppliers, partnerships, quality, container closure, and regulatory. 

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Innovations In Drug Delivery: Opportunities For Enhancing Familiar, Mature Approaches, Carolyn Dorgan, director of technical services at device design consultancy Suttons Creek, and James Wabby, head of global regulatory affairs for emerging device technologies and combination products at AbbVie, trace the evolution of drug delivery technologies over the last 100 or so years. The timeline illustrates the trajectory from the earliest prefilled syringes to the nanotechnologies and other advances of today.

What does the FDA’s guidance on Essential Drug Delivery Outputs (EDDOs) mean for activities involved in preconditioning the device delivery components of combination products? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event The FDA Guidance on EDDO: What to Know, What to Do, Alan Stevens,  regulatory head of complex devices and drug delivery systems at AbbVie and formerly at FDA, discusses the likely intent and impact of EDDOs on preconditioning for both manufacturers and sponsor companies.

In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 6 on risk management from The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems (CRC Press) with the book’s editor, Susan Neadle, and chapter co-author Edwin Bills.
