Low oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drug candidates is currently one of the top challenges for drug development. Among enabling technologies available today, there is no “one size fits all” solution. In this webinar, industry experts will discuss the pros and cons of different drug delivery technologies and strategies for selecting the most suitable technology for any given molecule.
Spray-dried dispersion (SDD) has been successfully applied to many drug products in recent years. This webinar will introduce key SDD development considerations for identifying a stable formulation that enhances and sustains in-vivo drug solubility.
