Abstract
Many unmet needs remain with the current drug formulations. Polymers can help achieve a controlled release of a given drug or/and a targeted delivery and improved drug bioavailability, which in turn can lead to important societal benefits with a better patient compliance, tolerability and safety and contribute overall to lower healthcare costs. Polymer Technology offers a wide range of opportunities in drug delivery development for multiple therapeutic fields. Mithra Pharmaceuticals has developed over the last 17 years significant experience in long acting drug development (Intra uterine systems, implants, biocompatible rings) for multiple active ingredient families. Mithra is setting-up an integrated R&D and manufacturing platform in Liège ( Mithra CDMO) , operational by 2017. This site will operate as a pharmaceutical ecosystem where third parties (research centers, academia or life science related industries) can leverage Mithra’s know-how in long-acting drug development and sterile injectables
