In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Eying The Drug Delivery Regulatory Landscape: The 'Must See' Watch List For 2026, Chief Editor Tom von Gunden asks the panel to comment on front-of-mind regulatory movements of note. From her role as Director of Regulatory Policy at Novo Nordisk, Rumi Young identifies the inclusion of combination products in FDA initiatives focused on combatting chronic diseases and improving patient accessibility. Panelists Barr Weiner and Fran DeGrazio weigh in.

How can genetic information be carried into lung tissue for the treatment of asthma and potentially other conditions? In this inaugural episode of In Combination, host Tom von Gunden combines the perspectives of two executives from LNP/mRNA (lipidoid nanoparticle / messenger RNA) formulation and delivery platform developer Ethris: CEO Carsten Rudolph and Chief Medical Officer Thomas Langenickel. The conversation illuminates the value to patients of platform approaches to inhalation-delivered treatments.

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Innovations In Drug Delivery: Opportunities For Enhancing Familiar, Mature Approaches, James Wabby, head of global regulatory affairs for emerging device technologies and combination products at AbbVie, and Carolyn Dorgan, director of technical services at device design consultancy Suttons Creek, discuss key product development considerations when bringing digital connectivity solutions to drug delivery devices. These aspects include product and health authority partnerships, clinical studies, and regulatory approvals.
