Advantages
The Magnetic Capsule acts as a prototype of an oral pharmaceutical formulation, it can simulate biopharmaceutical properties and is a helpful cost and time reducing tool during the development process.
Fast and easy determination of resorption areas
As drug release is remotely controlled, the number of subjects to be enrolled in a study can be very small, the duration of the trial is short and the results are very soon available.
Formulation optimization
The Magnetic Capsule is a perfect tool for formulation optimization. The complete tablet or capsule or preliminary formulation with different ingredients can easily be transported to the areas of interest in the GIT to identify the optimal formulation.
Early proof of concept studies
As soon as a promising active has been found, the Magnetic Capsule can be used in animals to perform preclinical studies and immediately afterwards the first trials in man to confirm safety and the therapeutic principle. The costly and time consuming formulation development can start when evidence of the therapeutic principle has been demonstrated.
Costs
The costs for a clinical study employing the Magnetic Capsule are very competitive.
