Canadian research facilities are becoming a popular choice for American and European sponsors, carrying out hundreds of clinical trials each year.

CASE STUDY: Successfully Scaling Up a Drug Nanosuspension for Clinical Trials

Altasciences has the unique expertise and experience to successfully scale up R&D formulations for clinical manufacturing.

In this case study, you’ll learn how we optimized the milling conditions for the manufacturing process of a nanosuspended dosage form to ensure a sufficient quantity of product to support our client’s Phase III clinical trials.

Find out how we did it!

Accelerate Your Clinical Trials with Liquid-Filled Capsules

Liquid-filled, two-piece capsules offer countless advantages over other solid dosage forms―ease of scalability and manufacturing, faster absorption, simpler packaging, and higher product stability, to name a few.

They are also the recommended dosage form for insoluble or highly potent APIs, and are known to accelerate product development because they can be made with fewer excipients than other solid dosage forms, such as tablets.

Discover the full benefits of using liquid-filled capsules in your clinical trials, or view this infographic for a quick tutorial.

Overcome Matrix Shortage and Non-specific Binding Issues

Surrogate Cerebrospinal Fluid Method for ASO Quantitation

In this presentation, we identify a suitable surrogate matrix to overcome issues regarding the shortage of nonhuman primate matrices, and susceptibility to non-specific binding (inherent in the analysis of oligonucleotides), including the use of artificial cerebrospinal fluid.
