Formulating and manufacturing drugs for preclinical testing is an early, crucial step toward human trials. At the preclinical stage, the goal is to maximize exposure for safety testing, formulating to the limits of solubility and maximum volumes. To optimize the formulation for preclinical testing, one must consider the route of administration, selection of excipients, stability testing, plans and options for scale-up, and contingency plans.
