BASF and Bend Research join forces to solve bioavailability challenges

25-Feb-2013 - Germany

BASF SE and Bend Research Inc. have signed an agreement to jointly evaluate and develop novel excipients to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs.

The companies plan to combine their world-leading expertise in the development of new excipients and drug formulations to provide customers from the pharmaceutical industry with early access to the latest polymer innovations. The aim of this collaboration is to meet increasing challenges of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (BCS Class II and IV compounds); the initial focus will be on optimizing new vinylpyrrolidone based copolymers being developed for the solubilization of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients.
