Xcelience Provides Flexible API into Capsule Solutions using Capsugel's Xcelodose® precision powder micro-dosing system for Speed to First-in-Human Studies



Xcelience has a solution for clients trying to do more with less.

Xcelience offers a defined program using Capsugel’s Xcelodose® 600 and 600S precision powder micro-dosing systems to provide a faster, cost effective path to Phase I studies. Xcelience API into capsule services enable greater flexibility in dosing for the clinic without resulting loss in quality. The system can accommodate small or large quantity batches, and provides the ability to adjust the dose with minimal loss of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).

Expertise: Having worked with more than 30 APIs and 80 batches, Xcelience has more experience with API in capsule services than other contract research organization.
Capacity: Xcelience owns two of Capsugel’s Xcelodose® units providing more capacity and reliable back-up.
Preparedness: To minimize downtime, Xcelience maintains a full inventory of change parts to accommodate all capsule sizes and instrument spare parts.
