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.
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 Suttons Creek, comments on drug delivery technology advancements, particularly around the challenge of greater reliability. Her commentary begins with the market introduction of epinephrine autoinjectors and moves to more recent advances in nasal spray alternatives.
Chief Scientific Officer Geraldine Venthoye from Phillips Medisize joins Supplier Horizons host Tom von Gunden in a conversation about advancements in inhalation and injection for targeting a broader range of patient needs. The two discuss formulation and delivery system challenges for complex, large molecule biologics, including vaccines, immunotherapies, and cell and gene therapies. Venthoye comments on patient access and affordability, digital health and connected devices, chronic disease management, and social and environmental stewardship.
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.
