Event Overview:

In today's competitive pharmaceutical landscape, drug developers are continually seeking innovative strategies to enhance bioavailability, improve patient compliance, and expedite therapeutic outcomes. Pregastric absorption has emerged as a critical pathway to achieve these goals by enabling drugs to bypass gastrointestinal degradation and first-pass metabolism.

Join us for an insightful webinar as we explore the latest innovations in pregastric absorption. Learn more about advancements in buccal and sublingual delivery systems, the impact of permeation enhancers, and the role of PBPK modeling in predictive formulation design.

This session will provide a deep dive into how rapid-dissolving orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) are transforming the landscape of drug development. Experts will also discuss how these trends are influencing the development of patient-centric formulations, all with the goal of improving therapeutic efficacy and patient experience.


Key Learning Objectives:

  • Explore the latest formulation strategies, including the use of permeation enhancers and advanced ODT technologies, to improve the pregastric absorption of difficult-to-formulate drugs
  • Learn how to apply PBPK modeling tools to simulate and predict drug absorption through the oral cavity, accelerating formulation development
  • Understand how to create ODTs that are not only effective for pregastric delivery but are also more palatable and easier to administer, enhancing patient compliance
