Director of Pharmaceutical R&D, Stefan Grudén, has been invited to present at the Annual Formulation and Drug Delivery Congress being held in London on 29-30 April.

This annual congress is an important event for pharmaceutical companies involved in drug delivery or that are looking to develop and improve new and existing drugs.

-This invitation is a recognition of LIDDS ground-breaking research in drug delivery and the potential that NanoZolid® technology has for the controlled and sustained release of drugs, particularly in the intratumoral treatment of cancer, says Monica Wallter CEO, LIDDS.

At the congress, LIDDS will present the unique NanoZolid® technology and its potential to deliver potent local drug effect with reduced systemic side effects.

-I will be presenting on the development of NanoZolid® and its benefits for the intratumoral delivery of oncology drugs, including in the new and exciting area of immuno-oncology, says Stefan Grudén, Director of Pharmaceutical R&D at LIDDS.

-The presentation will be based around the scientific paper on NanoZolid® that was recently published in the Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology. This paper describes how NanoZolid® interweaves the sciences of biomaterials, dosage form design and dedicated cancer research, says Stefan Grudén.

NanoZolid® technology solves one of the major challenges in treating cancer by allowing drugs to be injected directly into a tumor and releasing the drugs for a period of up to six months. This improves drug effectiveness and patient quality of life by allowing high drug loads with reduced side effects and improved compliance.
