Breakout Session Topics
Session #1: Drug dissolution from amorphous solid dispersions
Topic Question: What basic and applied laboratory methods provide the best insight into drug dissolution from amorphous solid dispersions?
Lead – Dana Moseson (Pfizer) / Debasis Ghosh (FDA)
Session #2: Drug dissolution from nano-formulations
Topic Question: What in vitro dissolution and dissolution/permeation methods have been most useful for nano-formulations?
Lead – David Curran (GSK) / Anitha Govada (FDA)
Session #3: Drug dissolution from co-crystals
Topic Question: What in vitro dissolution and dissolution/permeation methods have been most useful for co-crystals?
