Are You Facing the Growing Pressures of Maximizing the Value of Your Drugs?

Chair: Dr. Ralph Lipp, Former Vice President, Pharmaceutical Sciences R&D, ELI LILLY

Evaluating Platform Technologies in Lieu of Single Molecule Technologies:
When it comes to finding the perfect technology, it’s often a question of macro vs. micro usage. The big question: focus on a cross-platform approach or drill down to a specific molecular application?

In this session, executives:
• Evaluate the ability to determine technologies for large and small molecules at the same time
• Discuss whether testing can occur before phase 3
• Explain how drug delivery companies can aid in the decision-making process

-Julia Rashba-Step, Senior Director, Novel Delivery Technologies, Biotherapeutics R&D, PFIZER
-Keith Horspool, Vice President, Pharmaceutics, BOEHRINGER INGELHEIM
