Seda scientists are proud to have been involved in the successful multidisciplinary teams behind the development and approval of at least 5 of these life-changing medications. This has included input to pharmaceutical development, clinical pharmacology and regulatory aspects such as:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Clinical pharmacology package including first in human protocol, DDI and selection of dose using the \u2018optimal biological dose\u2019 approach rather than MTD, predating FDA\u2019s Project Optimus<\/a> initiative (osimertinib and gefitinib).<\/li>\n
- Understanding of complex drug absorption characteristics (gefitinib)<\/li>\n
- Rapid pharmaceutical development, product introduction and bridging (gefitinib, osimertinib and selumetinib).<\/li>\n
- Shaping the regulatory perceptions on Quality by Design with a focus on clinically relevant dissolution specifications (CRDS) (vandetinib, included in FDA QbD pilot program).<\/li>\n
- Development of preclinical formulations (osimertinib and selumetinib).<\/li>\n
- Partnering between a biotech and big pharma to facilitate a successful approval, launch and commercialisation (acalabrutinib).<\/li>\n
- Development of a novel salt form in combination with an enabled formulation to deliver an innovative paediatric product (selumetinib).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

\nThere may be a small dip in the number of approvals in the next few years due to COVID interruptions but based on the number in clinical development including with Seda\u2019s current clients, the number of approvals is expected to continue to grow. There may even be opportunity to explore therapeutic application as antimicrobials.<\/p>\n
