Considerations for Neuroscience Trials with Intrathecal Delivery and Other Methods of Direct CNS Administration

XTalks

One of the biggest challenges with developing therapies to treat CNS disorders is the delivery of systemically administered investigational products (IPs) to the brain, which is limited by the blood-brain barrier. Some methods of direct CNS administration include intrathecal, intraparenchymal and intracerebroventricular (ICV) delivery.

Covid-19 vaccine success bolsters nanoparticle drug delivery research

Pharmaceutical Technology

The next wave came from early research into liposomes and lipid nanoparticles, both of which are used for drug delivery. Liposomes have the same function as lipid nanoparticles in drug delivery but have a simpler formulation. Lipid nanoparticle drug delivery was in the spotlight during the Covid-19 pandemic.
