Long-Acting Drug Delivery Systems: Pharmaceutical, Clinical, and Regulatory Aspects

Long-Acting Drug Delivery Systems: Pharmaceutical, Clinical, and Regulatory Aspects offers a comprehensive overview of the technical, clinical, regulatory and industrial perspectives on these drug delivery systems. The book follows a sequential order, beginning with the current technical state-of-the-field and moving on to more clinical, industrial and regulatory topics. Opening chapters describe the current needs and potential applications of implantable and long-acting therapeutic approaches. The book goes on to describe established and novel long-acting systems, with a focus on the materials used to prepare these systems and their biocompatibility.

Importantly, applied topics such as scale-up manufacturing, products under clinical trials and regulatory aspects are covered, offering the reader a holistic view of this rapidly growing field.

Brings together technical, clinical, regulatory and industrial perspectives for a complete overview of long acting and implantable drug delivery systems Provides up-to-date coverage of established and novel long-acting and implantable drug delivery systems, both in development and actively in use Appeals to a broad readership, including materials scientists, pharmaceutical scientists, biomedical engineers, clinicians and regulatory experts
