Expertise in Drug Delivery Solutions
AdhexPharma's expertise lies in its comprehensive approach to drug delivery solutions, particularly in the areas of transdermal patches, and oral films. These delivery methods are increasingly preferred due to their ability to enhance patient compliance, reduce systemic side effects, and provide controlled release of APIs. AdhexPharma leverages its extensive knowledge to offer tailored solutions that meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring that every product is optimized for both efficacy and patient comfort.
Comprehensive Development Stages
AdhexPharma’s approach to drug development is methodical and encompasses multiple stages, each crucial in bringing a product from the initial idea to the market.
Feasibility Stage: The development process begins with the feasibility stage, where the experts conduct thorough evaluations to assess the suitability of APIs for various administration routes, such as topical, transdermal, buccal or oral. This stage is critical, as it provides essential data that guides the decision-making process, ensuring that the chosen delivery method is not only effective but also aligned with the product’s intended therapeutic goals.
Product Development: Following feasibility assessment, AdhexPharma engages in a detailed product development process. This involves a step-by-step approach that focuses on optimizing product performance, ensuring stability under various conditions, and preparing the product for clinical trials. The company’s rigorous development protocols are designed to ensure that each product meets the highest standards of quality and is ready for the next phase of its lifecycle.
Clinical Trial Supply Manufacturing: As the product progresses, AdhexPharma takes on the critical role of manufacturing clinical trial supplies. This stage is essential, involving the production of samples that must meet stringent regulatory requirements for use in clinical trials. With extensive experience and expertise, AdhexPharma ensures that all clinical trial materials are produced to the highest standards, thereby safeguarding the integrity and success of the trials.
A key advantage offered by AdhexPharma and Labtec is the ability to produce clinical trial samples at both pilot and commercial scales, depending on the trial phase. The pilot scale is designed to replicate the parameters of the commercial scale, ensuring seamless transition and consistency throughout the process
Formulation Transfer: One of the key services offered by AdhexPharma is formulation transfer, which involves the seamless transition of developed formulations to advanced production facilities. This step is vital in ensuring that the product can move from the development stage to large-scale manufacturing without any hitches, preserving the formulation’s integrity and ensuring consistency in the final product.
