The Challenge

Release testing for complex dosage forms needs a new approach

Long-acting injectables, implants, and depot formulations require months of release testing. Accelerated methods often fail to predict real-world performance, leaving teams guessing until clinical stages.

Testing Takes Months

LAI and implant release testing can take 30 to 90+ days per condition. Each reformulation restarts the clock, draining time and material budgets.

Accelerated Methods Don't Correlate

Shortcuts like elevated temperature or pH often fail to predict real-world release behavior. Teams discover this too late in development.

Microstructure Is Ignored

Traditional models treat dosage forms as homogeneous. They ignore the actual pore networks, polymer matrices, and phase structures driving release kinetics.

Meet ivisLab

First-Principles Drug Release Simulation

ivisLab integrates real microstructure data from imaging with mechanistic simulation algorithms. From polymer erosion to diffusion-controlled release, every mechanism is modeled from first principles.

Reduce Physical Testing

Replace months of release testing with mechanistic simulations that complete in minutes.

Predict Release Profiles

Generate in vitro and in vivo release curves from microstructure inputs and physico-chemical parameters.

Explore Formulation Space

Use sGAN-generated synthetic microstructures to test virtual formulations before committing material.

De-risk Complex Dosage Forms

Stress-test formulation variations and identify release risks before scale-up or clinical filing.

Supported Dosage Forms

How It Works

From Microstructure to Release Prediction

1

Input Microstructure

Upload imaging data (micro-CT, SEM, confocal) or use sGAN to generate synthetic microstructures from parameters.

2

Set Release Conditions

Define media composition, temperature, pH, and physiological parameters matching your target environment.

3

Run Simulation

Mechanistic algorithms compute release profiles accounting for diffusion, erosion, swelling, and pore evolution.

4

Analyze and Act

Compare formulation variants, correlate with experimental data, and export results for regulatory dossiers.

Business Outcomes

Questions And
Answers

Browse our most commonly asked questions. If you don't find what you're looking for, reach out to our team directly.

01How is ivisLab different from dissoLab?
+

dissoLab focuses on particle dissolution for oral solid dosage forms. ivisLab models drug release from complex dosage forms like long-acting injectables, implants, and depot formulations where release is driven by polymer erosion, diffusion through matrices, and pore network evolution.

02What imaging data does ivisLab accept?
+

ivisLab works with micro-CT, SEM, confocal microscopy, and other volumetric or cross-sectional imaging modalities. For early-stage work, ivisLab can generate synthetic microstructures using digiM's sGAN technology from parameter inputs alone.

03Can ivisLab predict in vivo release?
+

Yes. ivisLab generates both in vitro and in vivo release predictions by accounting for physiological conditions, tissue interactions, and bio-relevant media parameters alongside the dosage form's microstructure.

04How long does a typical simulation take?
+

Most simulations complete in minutes. Complex multi-phase systems with high-resolution microstructure data may take longer, but are still orders of magnitude faster than physical release testing.
