14 CASE STUDIES

15 CASE STUDY 1: Bioavailability Enhancement Using Lipidic Systems CLIENT: KuDos/AstraZeneca THE BRIEF: Oncology Treatment (PARP inhibitor) Poor aqueous solubility Bioavailability enhancement needed to progress drug OUR SOLUTION: Solubility screening and optimisation Two lipid based formulations developed Dog PK study performed Dosages subsequently reduced Drug licensed to AZ and in Phase III

16 CASE STUDY 2: Flexible Targeted Delivery System CLIENT: German Pharma Company THE BRIEF: New indication for existing product 3 Phase delivery required Immediate release in stomach (IR) Delayed release in small intestine (DR) Modified release in small intestine (MR) Flexible dosing required OUR SOLUTION: Mini-tablet system developed(<0.3mm) Central core with 3 different coating options Low cost option with scalability Ideal for rapid clinical evaluation

17 CASE STUDY 3: Bioavailability Enhancement Using Lipidic Systems CLIENT: Idenix – now licensed to GSK THE BRIEF: Anti-infective Poor aqueous solubility & bioavailability Limited funds for development OUR SOLUTION: Range of options explored Lipidic system Micronised API (dry powder) Solid suspension improved bioavailability no intra-patient variability Drug progressed to Phase I, IIa and IIb

18 CASE STUDY 4: Novel Drug Delivery System for HIV Prevention CLIENT: NYBC/Gates Foundation THE BRIEF: Intra vaginal administration Fast acting microbicide Low cost treatment required Non-irritating to vaginal mucosa OUR SOLUTION: Vaginal pessary developed Rapid gel formation (under 2 minutes) Mucoadhesive properties Exceeded client requirements IP developed and patents filed by client

19 CASE STUDY 5: Compaction Simulation to Overcome Manufacturing Problems CLIENT: Actavis THE BRIEF: Anaemia treatment Tablet product Unable to meet specification after moving production process OUR SOLUTION: Compaction simulation used to compare processes Various parameters evaluated: punch dimensions, compression force, dwell time and press speed Advised client on new tooling required Product successfully transferred

20 CASE STUDY 6: CLIENT: MediWound THE BRIEF: Non traumatic to patient Gel to provide delivery of microspheres over 48 hours Be gas permeable and not hermetically seal the wound Be terminally sterilised OUR SOLUTION (– Still in development) Thermally reversible gel Multiple combination polymer system for Content uniformity Maintain negative charge on beads We are currently understanding the requirement to cope with varying levels of exudate in wounds Release of beads to from gel over 7 hours. Using a Franz cell assessment
