Engineering Protein Therapeutics for Delivery May 16-17, 2007
Boston, MA
There is enormous potential for innovative drug delivery approaches to expand the biologics pipeline. These approaches can improve pharmacokinetic properties and the route of delivery for large protein drugs. Increasing the success rate of novel therapeutic entities involves employing drug delivery solutions earlier in discovery. This is the only meeting focusing exclusively on protein and peptide drug delivery. Find out how the industry can employ novel delivery techniques to extend patent lives and meet the growing demand for hard-to-deliver drugs.
