Exosome-mediated drug delivery is a promising alternative to conventional drug delivery methods, making rapid strides in the biopharmaceutical industry because of the safety and efficacy advantages exosomes offer as nanocarriers over synthetic nanoparticles. The widely explored concepts of nanomedicine, nucleic acid therapeutics, and cell-free vacc...

Inhalation drug delivery involves administering drugs to the lungs through the mouth (pulmonary route) or nose (intranasal route), enabling them to bypass the blood-brain barrier. Small molecules have been the main focus for inhalation delivery, but recent R&D and increased interest in inhalable COVID-19 vaccines have led to a shift toward inhalabl...

Small molecules, which are the leading drug class across indications, face several issues that threaten their drug delivery efficacy. They suffer from off-target effects, poor bioavailability, low solubility, systemic toxicity, and poor permeability. While the small molecule drug development pipeline remains a leading therapeutic class, it is essen...

The increasing disposable incomes in developing countries have contributed to a sedentary lifestyle worldwide. The advent of food delivery apps has also increased accessibility to various culinary delights. These factors have contributed mainly to obesity and other lifestyle diseases. People with a body mass index (BMI) of more than or equal to...

Diabetes has exhibited dramatic increases during the past decade, registering a global prevalence of 9% among adults aged 18 years and older, and is projected to be the 7th-leading cause of death by 2030. The most popular treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is multiple daily insulin (MDI) injections. However, researchers globally are work...

Biologics, particularly peptide and protein therapies, are a rapidly growing therapeutic area because they can target complex biological pathways with high efficacy. These therapies are becoming important in oncology, metabolic disease, and autoimmune conditions supported by the growing global disease burden and growth in areas such as GLP-1s and m...

With the healthcare industry moving toward patient convenience and comfort, pharmaceutical and medical device companies are continuously researching for the most effective, side effect free, convenient route of drug delivery. Transdermal drug delivery is a painless method of delivering drug formulation. Transdermal route of drug administration has ...

Targeted drug delivery is gaining traction owing toward significant demand for improvement in the drug delivery efficiency as well as the need to mitigate potential side-effects, which can occur due to drug accumulation. The concept of targeted drug delivery is not new, the technology started gaining pace with the advent of nanotechnology and bioco...

This study assesses on-demand food delivery in Southeast Asia, with a focus on the platform-to-consumer segment. The key countries discussed are Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. On-demand food delivery is a door-to-door and online-to-offline service. Service operators integrate the value chains of catering ...
