There is no doubt that drug development is a lengthy, costly and uncertain process, riddled with complexities and hurdles. In recent times, the need for accelerated drug development is greater, with added pressure on CDMOs to deliver the goods in a timely, efficient, and agile manner. In this industry, time is not just money, it can impact the entire program. A program which has been through years and years of careful consideration, strategic discussion and pinpoint planning, working with scientific experts to create and develop what is thought to be a medical necessity in order to improve peoples lives. All that being said, it is evident that keeping drug development on track is key, but what if you could accelerate drug development, cutting costs and time. Would you be interested?
This webinar discusses drug substance manufacturing in early development and the very concept of being fast, agile and innovative. Paul will take you through the journey of flow chemistry, discussing in depth the benefits of adopting continuous manufacturing over traditional batch manufacturing. As every molecule and development program is different, there is no single manufacturing solution and continuous flow manufacturing is not a panacea, however there are a number of key drivers for choosing to include flow chemistry, some of which are an increased yield and purity, over a shorter period of time which ultimately results in an overall cost saving.
If you are looking to learn more about flow chemistry and how it works, or how this could aid your drug development program, this webinar will help the decision making process by providing you with the necessary facts to make an informed decision.
