THEME: "Current and Emerging Trends in the Field of Pharmaceutics and Drug Delivery Research"
Advanced drug delivery technologies can increase efficacy and safety,
extend patent lives, and provide fierce differentiation for biopharmaceuticals. Efficient drug
delivery plays a pivotal role in disease treatment and remains an
important provocation in medicine. Recent advances in the field of
microfabrication have offered the chance to develop controlled release systems
for drug delivery. Herein, we will mainly address
two kinds of delivery devices: microreservoir and
micro/nanofluidic devices. Novel drug delivery mechanisms and devices can have
a remarkable impact for drug manufacturers. In fact, drug delivery
technologies can help drug manufacturers in transform new therapeutics from
existing products, provide a means for extending patent protection, and enable
novel treatments. While the most of drug delivery devices are related to oral
delivery, however, it is not confound given the extension of the
biopharmaceutical market that the rapid growing segments of the drug delivery
market address the delivery of biologic drugs. Therefore researchers are emerge
a range of new delivery technologies and materials to enable these new drugs to
be delivered intact to their target sites," says Rajveer Singh Rathor, a senior
research analyst for healthcare with Markets and Markets.
