Dosage forms are being shaped by numerous factors, with patient-centricity continuing to be an important driver of decisions in development.

Twin-screw granulation process insight is growing as researchers employ new analytical technologies and investigate new ways to use the equipment.

Sustainability advances are being made, but more investment is needed.

In this episode of Drug Digest, Pharmaceutical Technology’s European/Senior Editor, Felicity Thomas, discusses small-molecule APIs, excipients, and formulation advances, including a discussion about novel approaches and solutions to pediatric formulations and taste-masking, a rundown of the fundamental stages of gaining a certificate of suitability for APIs, and a deliberation on the biggest trends impacting the industry and key sessions to visit while at CPHI, with several key industry experts.

BenevolentAI will leverage its suite of AI chemistry design tools in combination with its fully equipped wet lab facility in Cambridge, UK, to deliver small molecule drug development candidates into the Merck pipeline, according to the press release.

The company is currently developing EVX-101 as an adjunctive treatment for MDD due to patients experiencing an inadequate response to first-line antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors SNRIs.

Under the collaboration, Orionis will receive $47 million upfront to leverage its Allo-Glue platform to discover small-molecule monovalent glues.

Maik Jornitz, Principal Consultant, BioProcess Resources LLC, discusses the definition of patient safety and how to implement new technologies into upgraded facilities.

The EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use has given a positive opinion on Sandoz’ biosimilar trastuzumab for breast and gastric cancer.

According to a press release, the implications go to the extent that within the next 10 years, more than 50% of approved drugs will involve AI in their development and/or manufacturing.

Recipharm will provide analytical and process development capabilities to support toxicology studies, in addition to GLP manufacturing of lipid nanoparticles to capture the active pharmaceutical ingredient, an antigen peptide.

The agreement states that Orbit will implement its bead-based peptide display engine to discover peptide leads specific to targets related to specific tumors.

Advanced analytical tools generate more data in today’s labs than ever before.

Excipients should be treated equally when it comes to quality management, risk assessment, and testing.

Coprocessed excipients save time and cost while improving performance in a widening array of dosage forms.

Pharma's ability to continually reinvent itself will be critical in growing future business operations.

Extensive research on various gene editing techniques could inform the future of mRNA therapies.

Twist Bioscience is a synthetic biology and genomics company that has developed a DNA synthesis platform to industrialize the engineering of biology, which is a new method of this process by “writing” DNA on a silicon chip.
