11.18.25 -- Streamlining Topical Drug Development With Automation

How To Increase Success In Topical Drug Development With Automation

Explore how automation can enhance topical drug development — from pre-formulation studies to performance testing — ultimately supporting more efficient, reliable, and patient-friendly therapies.

 

Multifactorial Disease Models: De-Risking Topical Formulation Development

Traditional drug models can fail to predict performance in skin. Advanced, multifactorial ex vivo disease models directly address inflammation and infection to significantly de-risk formulation development.

 

Bioequivalence In Topical Generics: Regulatory Considerations

Regulators are focused on in vitro methods to prove bioequivalence, but differences in guidance and a new emphasis on matching the physical structure of reference products remain a challenge.

 

Taking An Alternative Approach To Drug Delivery

Novel therapeutics are driving demand for alternative drug delivery methods. Find the latest approaches and understand the formulation challenges and benefits for specific diseases.

 

The Fourth Industrial Revolution: Robotics And The Laboratory

Integration of robotics and automated systems across laboratory services significantly decreases experimental timelines, tightens precision, and enhances scientists' capacity for critical thinking.
