Contributor(s):: Vanhoorne, V, Holman, J., Cunningham, C., Kumar, A., Vercruysse, J., De Beer, T., Remon, J. P, Vervaet, C
This study presents a framework for process and product development on a continuous direct compression manufacturing platform. A challenging sustained release formulation with high content of a poorly flowing low density drug was selected. Two HPMC grades were evaluated as matrix former: standard...
