Strategies for Streamlining Small Molecule Formulation Development When Bridging from Candidate Selection to First-in-Human Clinical Testing

Pharmaceutical Technology

The continued high level of interest in small molecules presents multiple opportunities to select a candidate that is ‘developable’, with subsequent rapid progression toward first-in-human (FIH) clinical testing. We start by using in-silico modeling of any pre-existing data associated with the lead compounds.
