Advantages of Simple, Patient-Friendly Drug Delivery by Oral Inhalation for the Development of New Drugs and for Life-Cycle Management of Established Drugs:
Drug delivery by oral inhalation is standard for the treatment of pulmonary disease. The development of a simplified, cost-effective oral inhalation system that allows patients to self-administer medicines using simple, breath-powered devices now opens this route of administration to a wide variety of indications. This approach can be used with new therapies to gain competitive advantage and can breathe new life into "old" drugs. Case studies for diabetes, pain, and pulmonary disease will be presented
Speaker: Andrea Leone-Bay, Vice President, Pharmaceutical Development, MannKind Corporation
