As virtual collaboration and knowledge-sharing have reached a new level of urgency within the scientific community, Roquette has boosted its capabilities. The company has launched an online technical search platform, called “Innovation Hub,” along with its virtual pharmaceutical assistant, named “Rosa,” aimed specifically at research scientists and drug developers requiring immediate access to in-depth research and chemical formulations.
The interactive and easy-to-use digital platform is a new innovation for the company, offering product solutions to common formulation challenges in an effort to help developers achieve optimal drug processability and enhanced tabletability while reducing a drug’s time-to-market.
“We recognize that the scientific community is determined to collaborate more than ever before,” said Rajeev Gokhale, head of pharmaceutical sciences, Roquette. “Innovation Hub supports the digital transformation happening on the bench by more rapidly addressing formulators’ challenges in pre-clinical stages, while allowing developers direct access to our own scientists and their deep level of know-how and scientific expertise.”
Kelsey Achenbach, head of marketing for Roquette’s global pharmaceutical business unit, said, “We are especially pleased to be able to offer this platform to our scientific partners at a time when it’s even more critical to help shorten drug development outcomes. Starting with 13 of our most trusted excipients for direct compression, we’ll be adding more products featuring our complete portfolio in the months to come. We truly look forward to helping make the formulation process faster and more efficient, while making things easier for our customers to interact with our scientists in an on-demand fashion.”
Innovation Hub offers scientists and developers an opportunity to analyze formulations, read existing Roquette technical research and inquire directly to the company’s customer technical support team with a reply turnaround timeframe of less than 48 hours. The platform’s content addresses common formulation challenges ranging from encapsulation and taste-masking, to solubilization, long-term stability and timed-release considerations. Additional Roquette functional excipient product information and specialty active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), application examples, novel manufacturing techniques and analytical data will be available in the near future.
