Many drug substances are extremely bitter or have other aversive attributes,which can make developing palatable drug products extremely challenging.This is a common problem seen in medicines spanning all therapeutic areas,from antibiotics and painkillers to antihistamines and decongestants. The careful design and development of formulated oral drug products is key to ensuring patient acceptability and compliance for achieving the desired clinical outcomes.

Senior Director of Product Development, Robert Cornog, and Senior Director of Integrated Development, Brad Rowe, recently contributed to Contract Pharma's feature on HPAPI outsourcing, "Why HPAPI Outsourcing Is Surging", explaining the evolving demand, regulatory shifts, and analytical challenges shaping the HPAPI contract manufacturing market.

High Potency Drug Development & Manufacturing

Highly potent active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs) are becoming increasingly common in drug development pipelines, especially in the oncology sector, as researchers search for therapies with greater selectivity and pharmacological activity. However, HPAPIs present additional CMC challenges due to the containment requirements to protect both the operators and manufacturing facilities. Their production processes may also require greater precision and control due to the very small quantities of drug present in the final dosage form.

Overcoming poor drug solubility and bioavailability challenges

Drug solubility has a significant impact on bioavailability. 70% of new chemical entities (NCEs) suffer from low aqueous solubility that can result in failure during clinical testing due to poor bioavailability. Selecting an appropriate drug formulation is imperative to the success of the program.

As the number of poorly soluble compounds continues to increase in the industry development pipeline, conventional formulation strategies may not be sufficient to achieve acceptable levels of solubility in the gastrointestinal tract and hence absorption into the systemic circulation. Scientists will need to utilize advanced formulation technologies to maximize oral bioavailability.
