Formulation Development

Pharmaceutical formulation development is the critical step which links the discovery of a novel drug to commercialization. During this step, formulation scientists will determine the best drug delivery vehicle and dosage form needed to deliver a therapeutic effect based on bioavailability or other factors. Below you can explore articles, industry trends, and curated products which can help increase formulation development efficiency.

  • An Interview with Scott Bone – Head of Formulation and Process Science, Bend Bioscience

    The industry must adopt a science-driven, data-informed development strategy. A foundational understanding of the active pharmaceutical ingredient’s (API) physicochemical properties, the matrix characteristics, and the drug’s pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles is essential. Leveraging these insights early in development ... read more

  • Transforming Substance Data for Faster Submissions and Improved Drug Safety

    When people want to understand a word, they turn to a dictionary for its widely accepted definition, history, and relation to other words. In the scientific field, the need to access standardized definitions is no different, and that’s exactly why the Global Substance Registration System (GSRS) was developed. read more

  • The Overexposure to Steroids for Asthma Patients

    The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), an organization working to reduce asthma prevalence, morbidity, and mortality worldwide, estimates that 334 million people are directly affected by the disease, 13 million of which have severe, uncontrolled asthma, despite attempts at treatment optimization. read more

  • Digital Clinical Trial Success Persuades CAUTION to be Replaced by ADOPTION

    In clinical research, there is no such thing as ‘taking a leap of faith’ and yet the industry’s need for empirical certainty can sometimes thwart adoption of important innovation. Understandably, the life sciences industry traditionally only takes incremental, calculated chances based on scientific hypotheses, slowing progress while patients – on ... read more

  • Awakening the Giant: The Next Frontier in mRNA Therapeutics

    The remarkable success of messenger RNA-based vaccines during the COVID-19 pandemic has sparked widespread interest and enthusiasm around mRNA technology. But vaccines are just the beginning. Researchers and biotech innovators worldwide are rapidly uncovering the broader potential of mRNA to address a vast array of health challenges, from cancer ... read more

  • Otic Drug Delivery Systems: An Overview

    Humans have five basic senses – sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste and there is a sensory organ associated with each. Thus, hearing is one of vital senses and the ear is a vital sensory organ. read more
