Modified-Release Dosage Forms and Manufacturing of Drug Products

To provide the students with an in-depth knowledge of the principles underlying design and development of delivery systems for biologics and controlled-release of small molecules. Issues related to the management of industrial production and quality of the final drug products according to the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) will be addressed, such as data integrity, supply chain and flow management.

The students will acquire the basic information required for the design of delivery systems intended for controlled release of drugs and of biologics. In addition, they will be able to understand the issues related to the quality assurance of medicinal products manufacturing.
