Formulation: Moving from molecule to clinic

In this debut episode of the Our Experience is Your Strength podcast series, host Steve Jacobs sits down with Devin Corson, Senior Formulation Scientist at Sharp Clinical, to explore the journey of drug formulation. Devin shares her unique perspective on the challenges and rewards of moving a molecule from the lab bench to first-in-human trials, drawing on her background in both quality and formulation development. She highlights the critical considerations in scale-up and stresses the importance of early and thorough stability testing. She addresses formulation-specific obstacles and the need to tailor dosage forms to specific patient populations. The conversation also touches on real-world issues, from ingredient sourcing difficulties still lingering post-COVID to regulatory differences between regions. Through it all, Devin’s message is clear: mission drives motivation, and patient-first thinking is key to successful formulation.
