We proudly announce the Crystal Pharmatech Formulation Forum, providing an educational platform with monthly webinars for fellow formulators and the pharmaceutical industry as a whole.

 

From these monthly webinars, we offer scientists and innovators access to:

  • Presentations by leading formulators from different organizations and academia throughout the industry

  • Live sessions to ask questions and engage with presenters

  • Dialogue between experts to dive deep into complex subject matter

In this series, we will discuss how it is possible to accelerate from Candidate Selection to Phase I FIH cost effectively, within 12 months, and with visibility into future clinical trials. A recent survey of 150 biopharmaceutical development scientists concludes:


  • Formulation issues have led to project failure and significant delays for about 60% of responding companies.

  • Of those projects, a delay of more than 12 months was reported by 52%

  • 10% experienced complete failure


This study's findings highlight the importamce of first-time-right development to avoid costly delays.

Crystal Pharmatech is pleased to announce a webinar series on 'Selecting the Right API Form and Formulation'. Choosing the right form and formulation is a continuously evolving field. To stay at the cutting edge of this field internally and continuously educate the community externally, Crystal Pharmatech has gathered a panel of distinguished scientists from various disciplines to support our 'Crystal Clear Pathways to Select API Form and Formulation'. The panel serves to educate pharmaceutical companies on the importance of the proper selection of API phase and formulation. This panel has combined to assess the form and formulation for hundreds of development compounds. Experiencing it all, they've seen the successes and the horror stories of development and are now willing to share them with you through case studies, panel discussions, and webinars.

Crystal Pharmatech is pleased to announce our new webinar series: "Molecules-to-Medicine: Accelerating Drug Development through Collaboration". Purpose: To communicate the extraordinary ingenuity taking place in 21st century drug discovery and development and that a good idea is just the first step in creating a medicine. In a nutshell, why CMC matters and how collaboration can accelerate development. Presenters: Innovative pharmaceutical scientists and entrepreneurs showcasing novel therapeutic technologies with a focus on how a molecule becomes a medicine.

Overcoming Bioavailability Barrier to Deliver Protein Degraders
Speaker: Dr. Chong-Hui Gu, Head of CMC and QA, Foghorn Therapeutics

Protein degraders offer a new opportunity to address targets that were previously undruggable. However, oral bioavailability issues have limited the use of this modality. This talk will address the factors that limit oral absorption and approaches to overcome those issues. This talk will also overview other delivery options to deliver protein degraders such as long acting injectable formulations.

Amorphous Solid Dispersions:  Two Heads Are Better Than One
Crystal Pharmatech Formulation Forum
Amorphous Solid Dispersions: Two Heads Are Better Than One
Speaker: Dr. Na Li, Assistant Professor in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Connecticut

Amorphous solid dispersion is an important formulation strategy used to overcome a drug’s poor solubility and boost bioavailability. Through molecular mixing with a polymer in the amorphous state, the drug’s dissolution rate is greatly enhanced. This does not only lead to increased free drug concentration in solution, but also sometimes the generation of amorphous drug nanoparticles.
