INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY ARTICLES
Does Drug Discovery Anticipate Delivery?
In this article, Chief Editor Tom von Gunden considers the relationship between drug discovery and drug delivery. His commentary includes reflections on conversations and encounters from the Discovery & Development US conference, where formulation and delivery topics were also in the air and on the agenda.

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.
How are EDDOs (Essential Drug Delivery Outputs) related to Design Controls during the design and development of a combination product? 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 illustrates how the concept of Design Outputs fits within the broader context of Design Controls.
After Essential Drug Delivery Outputs (EDDOs) have been identified, each will need to be controlled during the development of a drug delivery device. In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event The FDA Guidance on EDDO: What to Know, What to Do, consultant Susan Neadle of Combination Products Consulting Services, LLC provides the rationale for a risk-based approach to EDDO control strategies.
What constitutes an EDDO (Essential Drug Delivery Output)? 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 illustrates how to identify system-level drug delivery outputs that are device-dependent and, therefore, essential.
