Drug Delivery Innovation: Getting Advanced Therapies To Patients
In this article, Fran DeGrazio recounts the evolution of drug delivery technologies as she underscores the need to innovate in the delivery of advanced therapies. Considering chronic diseases, rare diseases, and difficult-to-reach therapeutic targets, Fran offers suggestions for organizing and readying for the development and delivery of platforms, systems, and devices for next generation treatments, including personalized, precision medicines.
INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY RESOURCES
-
In a recent webinar, Lonza discussed the process it uses to develop a spray dried powder formulation and scale from early feasibility studies to manufacturing.
-
Everything from glass or plastic bottles to the ink used in labels can leach unwanted contaminants. The first challenge chemists address is to narrow the focus on the most likely suspects.
-
Nasal spray administration of medicine offers advantages over oral and IV delivery. Experts discuss the advantages and opportunities of adopting unit- and bi-dose nasal delivery technology.
-
Early stage formulation studies, which should support the emerging target product profile, will often yield important experimental results to aid subsequent development of clinically relevant dosage forms.
