Future Directions - Formulation in the Drug Development Process

Date: Tuesday, February 05, 2019
Time: 03:00 PM Central European Time
Duration: 1 hour

The need to deploy a commercially viable formulation as early as possible in the drug development process still is unappreciated and undervalued by the drug industry despite the fact that formulation plays a vital part in the drug product development process. This was one of the key findings from the 2018 Informa Pharma Intelligence survey conducted by Rentschler Biopharma SE and LEUKOCARE AG, among biotech and pharma companies worldwide evaluating the status quo, importance and future of formulation.

To raise awareness and provide optimal formulation development in the drug development process, Rentschler Biopharma and LEUKOCARE formed a distinctive Strategic Alliance back in 2017. To date, the efficient realization of several joint projects has shown that combining LEUKOCARE´s expertise and unique SPS® formulation technology platform with Rentschler Biopharma´s proven development and manufacturing process has become a real success story.

In this webinar, experts from Rentschler Biopharma SE and LEUKOCARE AG will discuss the key findings of the 2018 survey and explain in depth how the strategic planning of formulation generates economic and competitive advantages.

The webinar will explore:

  • Key findings from the 2018 survey “Formulation in the Drug Development Process”
    • Formulation issues and how to overcome hurdles
    • Economic and competitive advantages gained from strategic formulation planning
    • Investment in early stage formulation set to increase
  • Strategic Alliance
    • Success in a joint project
  • Outlook 2025
