As more novel therapies and orphan drugs fill the drug development pipeline, small-scale CDMO capabilities have become an increasingly common need for sponsors developing and commercializing new drug entities.
Solid state properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) are a critical attribute of any drug product and significantly impact the drug’s efficacy, safety, and stability. The selection, development and scaling-up of a solid-state form with desirable properties is therefore critical for the success of drug development programs.
