Ron Filler, Drug Development Consultants, explains how USP's 1074 revision brings human-relevant safety science to formulators and excipient makers.

Nitin Kumar Swarnakar, PhD, global application lab manager at BASF in Tarrytown, spoke with PharmTech at AAPS PharmSci 360 about formulation and characterization challenges for amorphous solid dispersions.

FDA draft guidance on individualized genome editing lets BLAs add patient-specific variants without new trials, shifting evidence to CMC assay data.

Bill Williams, AAPS, compares KinetiSol and spray drying for amorphous solid dispersions, covering 75% drug loading, pill burden, weakly basic drug release, and process limits.

Vibha Jawa, PhD, chief scientific officer at EpiVax, discusses the limitations of current preclinical testing approaches and how new approach methodologies can strengthen drug development.

Pauric Bannigan, Intrepid Labs, explains how physics-informed machine learning aids formulation and why regulators still want experimental data.

Vibha Jawa, PhD, chief scientific officer at EpiVax, explains why the need for animal studies varies by modality and what it takes for organ-on-chip and other human-relevant models to replace these studies in IND-enabling toxicology work.

Sanjay Konagurthu, PhD, senior director of Science and Innovation at Thermo Fisher Scientific, explains what teams need to do to ensure the usefulness of AI and what strides have been made with AI in regulatory submissions.
