Preparing Your Drug for Clinical Success: Strategies and Considerations

July 8, 2020 Webinar

The pharmaceutical industry continues to experience decreasing productivity and high levels of attrition. Inflation of molecule physicochemical properties and complexities in clinical trial protocols stand among the main reasons for these trends. The most successful companies can leverage different expertise, manage risks, and follow logical sequences of operations in an integrated manner to speed development. Hosted by the Catalent Applied Drug Delivery Institute, with the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences (DISFARM), University of Milan, and Leads to Development, this webinar will focus on the key considerations for transitioning a molecule from discovery through clinical studies including molecule developability assessment, phase-appropriate formulation selection, integration of product development and clinical supply as well as regulatory requirements for advancing a developmental candidate to clinical trials. The Catalent Applied Drug Delivery Institute brings together pharmaceutical innovators, organizations, and academia to improve clinical outcomes, medication delivery profiles, patient adherence and treatment efficacy.

Smart Drug Development & Design from Candidate to Phase I

May 7, 2018 Cambridge, MA

Since the sequencing of the human genome nearly two decades ago, scientists have made numerous breakthroughs in understanding disease pathophysiology and developing molecules for “undruggable” targets. However, the pharmaceutical industry continues to experience decreasing productivity and high levels of attrition. One reason is that novel small molecule drugs have inflated physicochemical properties, which lead to low bioavailability and poor safety and efficacy profiles. Addressing these issues early and comprehensively can result in fewer problems in later development phases such as escalating timelines, costs, and regulatory issues. Leveraging the skills and experience of experts and integrating competencies can optimize the development pathway and enable drug candidates to reach their true potential. This event will focus on key considerations for transitioning a molecule from discovery to phase 1 readiness including API and formulation development, pharmacokinetics, quality and CMC requirements, and incorporation of patient focus design principles.

Advances in Drug Development and Delivery: Challenges, Patient-Centricity, and Innovative Technologies

November 30, 2017 CADDI & JLABS Toronto, Canada

Making the right choices is important in today’s R&D environment, especially considering the various pressures on developers such as time, resources, and funding. Short term thinking can lead to long term problems leading to missed timelines, escalating costs, and even regulatory issues in later phases. These factors can unfortunately contribute to non-optimal drug products unless they are addressed upfront by incorporating patient focused design principles to promote better drug performance and patient outcomes. This event will focus on a number of key considerations for developing the best small or large molecule drug product for patients: • Avoiding the biggest pitfalls in drug development • Addressing biopharmaceutical challenges • Incorporating patient considerations in designing a drug product • Latest trends and technologies for small and large molecule therapeutics Exclusively for JLABS residents – Meet with a Catalent expert: Attendees have the opportunity to discuss their projects and challenges and learn about potential solutions in a 1-on-1 setting with a Catalent formulation or biologics expert. This is a complimentary opportunity for all attendees. Advanced scheduling is requested. Please email Ronak Savla (ronak.savla@catalent.com) or Dan Peizer (dan.peizer@catalent.com).
