Pharmaceutical Rigor for Consumer Benefit

The Industry Challenge

The supplement and cosmetics industries often settle for ‘good enough.’ Standard formulations. Basic delivery methods. Minimal testing beyond regulatory requirements.

But consumers and healthcare providers deserve pharmaceutical-grade quality—not just in prescription drugs, but in the products they use every day.

  • 📊 75% of supplements fail independent quality testing
  • 🔬 Most cosmetics use delivery technologies from the 1980s
  • 📉 Bioavailability often <20% with standard formulations

The CIS Approach

At The Center for Innovation & Science (CIS), we apply the same rigorous development processes used for FDA-approved pharmaceuticals to create superior supplements and cosmetics.

Our pharmaceutical-grade approach includes:

  • Advanced formulation development
  • Comprehensive stability testing (ICH-guided)
  • Dissolution and bioavailability studies
  • Analytical method development & validation
  • Quality by Design (QbD) principles
  • Scale-up and tech transfer expertise

The result? Products that work better, deliver more effectively, and meet the highest quality standards.

From Concept to Commercialization

Advanced capabilities across pharmaceutical, supplement, and cosmetic development

Developing Next-Generation Therapies

JAK3/TEC Inhibitor Topical Semisolid

Severe Spot Baldness (Alopecia Areata)

Innovation: Targeted JAK3 and TEC inhibition through advanced topical delivery

  • ✓ Targeted immunomodulation
  • ✓ Topical delivery (reduced systemic exposure)
  • ✓ Novel mechanism of action
  • ✓ Potential for significant efficacy improvement

CGRP Receptor Antagonist Transdermal Patch

Migraine Headache Treatment

Innovation: Continuous transdermal delivery of CGRP receptor antagonist for sustained migraine prevention

  • ✓ Non-oral delivery (avoids GI side effects)
  • ✓ Sustained release (consistent blood levels)
  • ✓ Improved patient compliance
  • ✓ Convenient weekly application

Peptide Microneedle System

Advanced Delivery Technology

Innovation: Microneedle technology for painless, self-administered peptide delivery

  • ✓ Minimally invasive (painless)
  • ✓ Self-administered (no healthcare visit needed)
  • ✓ Controlled, sustained peptide release
  • ✓ Improved bioavailability vs. oral delivery

Pharmaceutical Technologies for Daily Wellness

We’re revolutionizing the supplement industry by applying advanced pharmaceutical delivery systems to enhance bioavailability and efficacy. The result: supplements that truly work.

💊

Sublingual Delivery

Active ingredients placed under the tongue absorb directly into the bloodstream, bypassing liver metabolism.

  • ✓ Rapid onset (15-30 minutes)
  • ✓ Higher bioavailability (60-70%)
  • ✓ Lower dose required
  • ✓ Reduced GI side effects
🔬

Oral Disintegrating Tablets

Tablets that disintegrate rapidly in the mouth (<30 seconds) without water.

  • ✓ No water needed
  • ✓ Fast disintegration and absorption
  • ✓ Improved compliance
  • ✓ Pleasant taste and mouthfeel

Liposomal Encapsulation

Actives encased in tiny lipid spheres that protect ingredients and enhance cellular delivery.

  • ✓ Protection from digestive degradation
  • ✓ Enhanced absorption (2-4x standard)
  • ✓ Targeted cellular delivery
  • ✓ Improved tolerability

Advanced Skincare Through Pharmaceutical Science

We bring pharmaceutical delivery technologies to cosmetics, creating products that don’t just sit on the skin—they penetrate effectively, deliver actives precisely, and produce visible results.

🧬

Liposomal Delivery

Phospholipid vesicles encapsulate actives and fuse with skin cells, delivering ingredients deep into the epidermis and dermis.

  • ✓ Enhanced penetration (up to 12x)
  • ✓ Sustained release of actives
  • ✓ Protection of sensitive ingredients

Nanoparticle Formulations

Ultra-small particles (<100nm) that penetrate skin barriers and provide unique aesthetic benefits.

  • ✓ Deep penetration
  • ✓ Elegant, non-greasy feel
  • ✓ Enhanced stability of actives
🎯

Microneedle Delivery Systems

Microscopic needles (<1mm) that painlessly penetrate the skin's outer layer and dissolve, delivering actives directly to target depths.

  • ✓ Minimally invasive (painless)
  • ✓ Direct delivery to dermis
  • ✓ Enhanced efficacy of peptides

Your Questions Answered

What makes CIS different from other contract R&D labs?

Our team brings decades of pharmaceutical industry experience typically reserved for prescription drug development—505(b)(2) expertise, advanced delivery systems, comprehensive testing protocols, and regulatory knowledge. We apply these same rigorous pharmaceutical standards to supplements and cosmetics, resulting in products that simply work better.

What types of products can you develop?

We specialize in three main categories:

  • • Pharmaceuticals: 505(b)(2) products, topicals, transdermal patches, microneedle systems
  • • Dietary Supplements: Advanced delivery systems (sublingual, ODT, osmotic, liposomal), novel ingredients
  • • Cosmetics & Cosmeceuticals: Pharmaceutical-grade skincare, liposomal products, peptide formulations, clean beauty
How long does product development take?

Timeline depends on product complexity:

  • • Simple supplement reformulation: 3-6 months
  • • Advanced delivery system (new): 6-12 months
  • • Cosmetic product: 6-10 months
  • • Pharmaceutical development: 12-36 months

We’ll provide a detailed timeline during project planning.

What is 505(b)(2) and why does it matter?

505(b)(2) is an FDA regulatory pathway that allows pharmaceutical developers to rely on existing published data for certain aspects of their product, rather than conducting all new studies. This significantly reduces development time and cost while still ensuring safety and efficacy.

Benefits: Faster to market, lower development costs, leverage existing data, still provides patent opportunities.

How much does product development cost?

Costs vary based on project complexity:

  • • Simple formulation: $15,000 – $50,000
  • • Advanced delivery system: $75,000 – $250,000
  • • Pharmaceutical development: $250,000 – $2,000,000+

During initial consultation (free), we’ll provide detailed cost estimates specific to your project.
