Mobile manufacturing units have the potential to strengthen supply chain flexibility, but are they feasible for oral solid dosages?

The smaller physical footprints of continuous OSD technologies make adapting to mobile manufacturing much simpler than other formulations.

Challenging patents can be a powerful way for generics companies to open up the market, but litigation isn't the only approach they can take.

A blend of both litigation and negotiation can help reduce costs and create a degree of certainty that litigation alone cannot provide.

In drug manufacturing, control and consistency matter.

But as drugs get more complex, maintaining this using traditional methods becomes more difficult, and companies may find themselves struggling with yield losses.

But AI-enabled digital twins could be the key to eliminating these issues.
