patient talking to doctor-GettyImages-1667822839 Patient-Centric Drug Delivery: Do Possible And Preferable Always Align?

In this article, Chief Editor Tom von Gunden discusses the alignment of drug delivery method with patient preference and need. He reflects on recent conversations in which he heard from experts in drug and delivery product development, as well as patients themselves, about patient-centric considerations such as safety, efficacy, usability, and convenience. The primary use case is the transition from clinically administered IV to subcutaneous injection, including self-administration.

INJECTABLE DRUG DELIVERY RESOURCES

INJECTABLE DRUG DELIVERY SOLUTIONS

  • Emergency‑readiness programs strengthen response with dependable countermeasures, rapid‑action tools, and decades of expertise supporting teams facing chemical, biological, and other high‑risk threats.

  • Our formulation development and material sciences experts have over 30 years’ experience in pre-formulation and solid state characterization.

  • AST aseptic filling products address the unique processing requirements of biologics manufacturing to gently care for biologic products during the fill-finish process. Their highly accurate peristaltic dosing system uses single-use pharmaceutical grade tubing that has been optimized to keep shear stress to an absolute minimum. When exiting the fluid path through the filling needle, the motion control system maintains the fill needle within the container and slowly rises as the product is being dispensed to minimize splashing and foaming that could introduce stress to the product. Temperature controlled filling is also possible with the ASEPTiCell® and GENiSYS® systems. AST has experience dosing products at temperatures as low as 3°C.

  • West is a leading global manufacturer in the design and production of technologically advanced, high quality, integrated containment and delivery systems for injectable medicines. We are a trusted partner to the world’s top pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies—working by their side to improve patient health.

  • Integrated formulation, analytical, and bioanalytical capabilities plus advanced facilities tackle complex chemistry, delivering accurate data, regulatory confidence, and smooth study progression.

  • Kymanox provides turnkey services to bring your product from concept to commercialization — and helps keep your product on the market. Kymanox has expertise in injectables (e.g., syringes, mechanical and electromechanical autoinjectors, wearable injectors, dual chamber systems, reconstitution systems), respiratory combination products (e.g., metered dose inhalers, dry powder inhalers, nasal sprays), and in ocular products (e.g., multi-dose containers, single-use injectables).

  • ASEPTiCell is integrated with isolator-barrier technologies to fully enclose and tightly control the aseptic environment for ideal conditions for processing sterile drug products. The system can be configured with a Restricted Access Barrier System (RABS) or an aseptic isolator to provide uninterrupted aseptic conditions during production. With isolator integrated systems, the ASEPTiCell is completely compatible with repeated in-situ bio-decontamination using hydrogen peroxide to further enhance the sterility assurance of the system.

  • An overview of analytical capabilities to boost product quality, meet regulatory expectations, and drive development through phase‑appropriate methods and specialized testing for complex drug programs.

  • Battelle provides end-to-end medical device development services, combining engineering, regulatory, and human-centric design to accelerate innovation from concept through commercialization across diverse therapeutic areas.

  • By partnering with Battelle, your organization can reduce risks and save on investment costs, leading to more successful and sustainable outcomes.
