ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

Liquid-filled hard capsule technology has a proven record for addressing complex active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) formulation challenges, including bioavailability enhancement. The capsules can be used with an array of pharmaceutically approved lipid-based excipients, offering formulation flexibility from lipid formulation classification system (LFCS) type I to type IV. Liquid-filled capsule manufacturing procedures also ensure effective API containment and offer a simple and efficient pathway to the clinic.

Learning outcomes of this webinar:

  • how to formulate and characterise lipid formulations starting from API physico-chemical and biological attributes
  • details of scaling up safely for highly potent APIs
  • efficiency for early stage clinical trials.
