Webinar: High Throughput Research in Preformulation of Biologics

Reducing development risks by applying an array-based formulation approach

With large investments continuing to be poured into the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, achieving a high rate of return on these substantial outlays is a chief concern. Drug discovery labs worldwide are asking important questions:

• How do we minimize the increased costs associated with later stage development failures and reformulations?
• What standard automated and software solutions can be used to accelerate informed decision-making and build organizational knowledge?

Quality by design initiatives and the need to be ever more productive with fewer resources has led to the increasing use of high throughput research techniques in drug development. Developing robust formulations for biological materials (proteins, antibodies, vaccines, etc.) requires the screening and analysis of a comprehensive matrix of formulation compositions and stress conditions.

In this webinar, Dr Eric Carlson, an expert in applying novel, high throughput research approaches to maximize impact in drug development laboratories, will answer these questions and others to help you increase the productivity of your R&D organization.

Using a configurable laboratory automation platform (Freeslate’s Core Module 3), samples can be prepared, processed and tested on the same system within a microscale environment, creating and analyzing more formulations with the same amount of starting material. By running experiments in parallel, researchers can further reduce the cost-per-study and increase sample throughput. Dr. Carlson will present case studies to support these data.

Managing complex sample handling and making sense of information-rich data sets from a variety of sources requires powerful informatics tools for sample tracking and data reporting. A standard software solution, Freeslate’s Laboratory Execution and Analysis software (LEA) will be presented. LEA software seamlessly generates, collects, and shares data across an entire organization to accelerate informed decision-making and build organizational knowledge.

Learn how Dr. Carlson’s expertise in this area will help you find the best utilization for your organization’s R&D investment.
