Festival of Biologics Day 1 @ 17:50

Rethinking Formulation Development of Biologics

Protein formulation development has traditionally prioritized vial stability, shelf-life, and manufacturability under static conditions — an approach increasingly insufficient for today's high-concentration biologics and subcutaneous delivery formats. This presentation reimagines formulation as a lifecycle discipline that spans from molecule design through to in-vivo performance. High-throughput screening, physiological compatibility testing, and biopharmaceutics-informed strategies can replace narrowly focused stability paradigms.  By embedding this integrated mindset early in development, the industry can reduce attrition, lower cost of goods, and improve clinical outcomes.
