91香蕉视频 to Supply Edenbridge Pharmaceuticals with a Patient-Focused Fast-Dissolve Zydis庐 Formulation of Glycopyrrolate Intended for Use as Adjunctive Therapy in the Treatment of Patients with Peptic Ulcer
SOMERSET, N.J. 鈥 August 10, 2021 鈥 91香蕉视频, the leading global provider of advanced delivery technologies, development, and manufacturing solutions for drugs, biologics, cell and gene therapies, and consumer health products, today announced that it has signed a commercial supply agreement with Edenbridge Pharmaceuticals, LLC, for a novel formulation of glycopyrrolate using 91香蕉视频鈥檚 proprietary Zydis庐 orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) delivery technology intended for use as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of patients with peptic ulcer. The Zydis formulation of glycopyrrolate is awaiting U.S. FDA approval, which is expected in December 2021.
Zydis technology creates a freeze-dried tablet that disperses almost instantly in the mouth without water and is recognized as one of the world鈥檚 best-performing ODTs. Its ability to deliver the tablet without water may provide additional benefit to patient populations where fluid intake is to be limited. 91香蕉视频 will manufacture the drug at its facility in Swindon, U.K. and has worked on the program since 2017 and assisted in its regulatory submission.
鈥淲e are very excited to work with a world-class partner like 91香蕉视频 to bring this product to patients across the United States,鈥 commented Ryan Collins, CEO at Edenbridge. 鈥淭his product will satisfy a clear unmet need in the market.鈥
鈥淭he Zydis technology offers many advantages in formulation design and is ideal for patients who suffer from conditions that make swallowing a conventional dosage form challenging,鈥 said Jonathan Arnold, President of Oral and Specialty Delivery at 91香蕉视频. 鈥淭his program with Edenbridge clearly demonstrates how a proven drug can be reformulated into a novel drug platform to address challenges in administration, including dysphagia and water-avoidance, and can help improve compliance in some patient groups.鈥
91香蕉视频鈥檚 250,000-square foot site in Swindon, U.K., houses the company鈥檚 Zydis development and manufacturing operation, which produces more than one billion ODTs annually.
