Innovations in Linking Rational Design and Material-Sparing Strategies for Enabled Intermediates and Drug Products
Read about a material-sparing strategy for developing spray-dried intermediates (SDIs) and their tablet formulations, enhancing bioavailability for poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), using erlotinib as a case study. By integrating formulation mapping, polymer screening, and compact screening, the approach enables rapid risk identification and informed decision-making for first-round tablet formulations.

This executive summary focuses on dose-flexible manufacturing strategies and their role in drug development. Dose flexibility is increasingly important for early clinical studies, particularly in areas such as pediatric medicines and oncology. However, flexible dosing strategies are often neglected or not prioritized early in development. This presentation will focus on technical strategies that can help anticipate appropriate timing for implementation and how to do so cost effectively while adhering to required timelines.

Beyond Jet Milling: A Deep Dive into Carrier-Based Formulation and Process Optimization - Executive Summary
Carrier-based formulations for dry powder inhalers are carefully designed to transport extremely small particles into the lungs. Jet milling can be used to micronize these particles, with both high and low shear mixing processes used to formulate mixtures capable of carrying the fine API particles into the deep lung. This paper looks at the requirements for pulmonary delivery via carrier-based inhaled powder formulations, and how jet milling can be used to manufacture effective and stable materials for these formulations

Meeta B. Kratz (Global Vice President, Product Management & Marketing, Lonza Capsule and Health Ingredients) talks about Lonza's future and how that works in tandem to meet client needs.

Spray drying enables the production of amorphous solid dispersions, allowing efficient scale-up from small screening batches to commercial levels. By leveraging small-scale experiments for process design and qualification, a robust validation strategy can be developed to support flexible, scalable manufacturing for small-molecule drug products.

Speed to market is a critical aspect of developing new pharmaceutical products, and scale-up-or scale-down-can play a key part in that process. Significant interest has been focused on the science of scale for spray drying, since this process is the leading technology for formulating drugs with slow dissolution rates or poor solubility, which results in low bioavailability. Lonza has over 20 years of experience in the scale-up and scale-down of spray drying processes. To learn more, read our executive summary.

Accelerating Small Molecule Advancements: The Power of Collaboration Between CDMOs and Biotechs (July 2024)
The increasing number of breakthroughs in small molecule drug development are exciting, but corresponding workflows are complex and require much more tailored approaches to ensure successful upstream and downstream processing, drug approvals and commercialization.
