Small Molecule APIs: Aligning Drug Strategy with Partnering Strategy A Review of the Trends and Market Dynamics Driving Outsourcing Decisions
Development of novel small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is increasingly turned over to outsourced partners who have become the primary drivers of the product’s overall development and go-to-market strategy. With hundreds of potential partners that drug owners can choose from to develop and manufacture small molecule APIs, choosing the best partner can be a challenging task. In this white paper, we explore the importance of purposefully aligning the overall drug development strategy with a partnering strategy. We also review how increasing development of novel drugs are also impacting the industry’s go-to-market efforts, driving new demand for expert small molecule API suppliers. Finally, we consider how small molecule API development projects can be executed by leveraging the experience of embedded contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) partners.
The Role of Forced Degradation in Method Development, Manufacturability, and CMC Strategy
April 28th 2025Forced degradation studies are critical in biologics development, particularly for monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). These studies simulate long-term environmental stressors to uncover degradation pathways and ensure the stability of critical quality attributes (CQAs), aiding in robust chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) strategies and regulatory compliance.
3D Screen Printing: Enabling A New Generation of Complex Formulations
April 14th 20253D screen printing provides innovative drug development capabilities that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional methods, including complex multi-layered formulations, precision control over drug release profiles, and near-endless possibilities in the geometric shaping of dosage forms. In this article, learn how 3D screen printing offers unmatched flexibility to tailor formulations for specific therapeutic needs and redefines what’s possible in drug development and manufacturing.
