Description: This 4 ½ day University of Wisconsin School of Pharmacy short course covers practical aspects of dosage form development for preclinical and phase 1 formulations. The formulation approaches include solubilization and disperse phase systems (suspensions, emulsions, microemulsions, liposomes and micelles) for preclinical as well as powders for reconstitution, capsules and tablets for phase 1. The course is a practical guide in that its focus is on major considerations in selecting and evaluating oral dosage forms for preclinical and phase 1 studies by examining the excipients used, their typical level ranges and various preparation/processing procedures on small laboratory and pilot scales. The challenges in developing oral dosage forms at this early stage will be examined in detail, including the major problems encountered and the common strategies that are used to overcome them. In addition to its focus as a formulation guide, the course content includes key points in stability evaluation, such as excipient compatibility approaches and the ICH guidelines. The major physical tests used to assess formulations are an integral part of the course material and are covered in terms of their application to problem solving and in setting the product specification.
