Azopharma Announces Plans to Implement XcelodoseTM Technology in the Production of Early Stage Clinical Trial Materials


According to Phil Meeks, Azopharma Chief Executive Officer, “Xcelodose technology allows us to more precisely prepare doses of clinical trial material. This enables our clients to stretch out valuable research material which is often costly and time consuming to make.” Mr. Meeks continues, “Many of our clients are small or virtual companies who are trying to minimize their financial burn rate. If we can save them a trip to the synthesis lab or reduce their time in Preformulation, we’ve gone a long way in stretching their resources.”

Xcelodose Technology Benefits:

•Ability to precisely fill low weights with minimal waste eliminates need for blending and offers higher pharmaceutical quality standards

•Minimizes or eliminates need for early formulation development and associated reduction of stability testing ultimately increasing speed of production over manual methods

•Reduces amount of API needed to get to first-in-human studies

•Reduces analytical development costs during early phase development

Mr. Meeks adds, “The introduction of Xcelodose to the production methods offered by ApiCross Drug Delivery Technologies further broadens our position as a global leader in the pharmaceutical development industry.” Azopharma Product Development Group brings together the best scientists in the field, state-of-the-art facilities and a focus on quality that provides our client partners an unbeatable combination in total product development.

4th Annual Patient Recruitment and Retention in Clinical Trials

13-15 October 2008, Amsterdam

Patient recruitment is now consuming thirty percent of clinical trial time - more time than any other clinical trial activity - and almost half of all trial delays result from patient recruitment problems. As the recruiting culture becomes more sophisticated and the forces affecting patient enrollment grow more numerous and complex, pharmaceutical companies are striving to discover new strategies to facilitate enrollment in clinical trials. With increasing industry pressure to develop, test and market greater numbers of new drugs faster, pharmaceutical companies need to perform clinical trials as quickly as possible. Inefficient patient recruitment processes is a formidable barrier to pharmaceutical companies' success in launching new products. Improving the patient recruitment process is imperative to avoid wasted investments and eliminate costly delays in bringing new drugs to market -- today and even more so in the not-so-distant future. Improved patient recruitment presents one of the largest opportunities for pharmaceutical companies to eliminate delays in clinical trials, thereby making it possible to reduce time to market.  With patent time limits and large overheads meaning that any delays in the development timeline can be disastrous, a good understanding of how to successfully recruit patients for trials is vital for any company looking to succeed.
