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.
INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY RESOURCES
-
Gain insights into a “simul-spray” process pioneering for combining small and large molecules into a single, atomized drug product for inhalation administration.
-
Explore the rationale behind opting for a contract development organization (CDO) to fulfill organizational requirements and underscore vital considerations for evaluating CDOs to ensure alignment with your project objectives.
-
Developing g-DDCPs is a complex and time-consuming process. By using a risk-based approach, manufacturers can streamline the development process and bring g-DDCPs to market more quickly.
-
A compound with poor biopharmaceutical properties or improper formulation design could lead to a delay in the project or even program termination.
-
Discover how patient-centric design principles can improve the development of medical devices. By focusing on user needs and behaviors, manufacturers can ensure that products align with expectations.
-
By embracing new approach methods, regulatory agencies can revolutionize toxicology testing. These methods can be adapted for various medications, including inhalers and nasal-administered drugs.
-
By transitioning to alternative solvents or leveraging process aids, the challenges associated with the use of these chemicals can be addressed, helping create a sustainable, greener footprint.
INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY SOLUTIONS
-
Large volume humidifiers and nebulizers – typically in sizes from 250 – 1000mL – can be specifically designed to fit existing delivery devices. Custom designs to facilitate the control of humidification in oxygen delivery can be developed.
