Oral drug development and manufacturing

Oral drug development and manufacturing

Meaningfully integrated and engineered to bring your oral drug to clinical trials quickly and reliably, we have the capabilities and expertise to handle any of your oral drugs and guide your development journey.

Crafting a science-led route to the clinic

Our expert team and integrated platform are uniquely built to support and guide your early phase oral drug to the clinic, through clinical studies and into commercialization.

Small-scale manufacturing is what we do best. We offer dedicated capabilities for the development and production of oral drugs including powders and liquids in capsules, immediate or modified-release tablets, orally disintegrating tablets, solutions and suspensions. We also have a unique range of delayed or controlled release technologies that are used to develop monolithic or multi-particulate matrix-type and reservoir-type systems.

We use the right standards at the right development phase to support successful regulatory filings guided by a dossier-oriented approach paired with long-standing regulatory knowledge.
