We have the expertise to evaluate your active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), characterize it, and design a formulation that meets its associated medical needs. Every formulation is developed and tested appropriately through commercial scales.
In addition to the dosage form design and manufacturing, we have experience with developing tests and test methods. We will recommend specifications that meet the expectations of the reviewing Health Authority for each stage of development. We will provide guidance for every client to ensure the CMC section is populated with appropriate data—a vital step in gaining regulatory approval for the drug investigation or drug approval. Some of the development steps we assist with in the CMC drug development process are listed below.
