Our challenge in pharmaceutical R&D
• More complex products (the easy ones are gone)
• Constantly increasing regulatory and patient expectations
• Cost of drug development is rising exponentially, and timelines are expanding
• We need more shots on goal due to high attrition
• Need more killer experiments
The solution???

Drug Product Development
• Can be developed only if
• Bioavailability
• Processability
• Stability
are achieved simultaneously
• Parallel concept development
is the major approach to
accelerate drug product
development process

Parallel concept development – a design space perspective
• Need systematic
experimentation,
e.g.DoE
Narrowed design space
Entire design space
• Parallel concept

• Need higher throughput
• Down-scaling and
automation is the key

PART I. Excipient Compatibility – The Dynamics
of Drug Product Stability
12
Excipient Compatibility
• Study chemical compatibility behavior between API and excipients
• Closely related to drug safety and efficacy
• Normally carried out in early development phase
• Sometimes included in the preformulation package
• Solid state form selection need to be done before excipient compatibility
• Final morphology, particle size are preferred
• Final synthesis route is best in place
13
Different Approaches Towards Excipient Compatibility
1:1 mixtures
• Easy to set-up
• May overestimate (Not the actual ratio)
• May underestimate (Synthetic effect)
Full Blend then N-1 method (remove one excipients per time)
• Gives more information
• 2-step method
• More time consuming
DoE approach – Mixture Design
•
Able to predict the dynamics of mixture
•
Much more samples need to be prepared

Challenges to conquer before getting the benefits of mixture DoE

• Silicon dioxide could cause degradation
• Interactions between silicon dioxide with fillers were revealed
• Optical formulation ranges can be suggested from stability
perspective
• The amount of silicon dioxide need to be carefully controlled
• Mixture DoE and small-scale experiments can be used for excipient
compatibility studies
