Celanese will be sharing technical and application-specific information with customers and conference attendees about its broad medical portfolio, specifically highlighting the company's VitalDose® EVA product in emerging pharmaceutical drug delivery applications, including implants for treatment of eye disease, retroviral infection, addiction, and other novel applications. "Controlled-release drug delivery has always presented considerable challenges to developers and formulators, such as drug loading, device size, and long-term sustained drug release," said Susan Rahe, global business director of the Celanese EVA polymers business. "VitalDose® EVA offers a safe and effective controlled release solution and is an inert thermoplastic that is expanding design possibilities for our customers with its customizable drug release properties." VitalDose® EVA as a controlled release excipient is developed for a wide variety of pharmaceutical products with varying routes of administration, including ophthalmic, intraoral, intravaginal, subcutaneous and transdermal. At the 2016 CPhI Worldwide Conference, Celanese will demonstrate how VitalDose® EVA can be used as a proven, safe and reliable controlled release excipient to solve fundamental drug delivery problems including patient compliance and frequency of dosage. Celanese material experts will exhibit the innovative controlled release pharmaceutical copolymer VitalDose® EVA at booth number 4C96SSP.
