Over the last six years, the development and optimization of improved, biorelevant in vitro tools has been a cornerstone of the IMI OrBiTo (Oral Biopharmaceutics Tools) project. By bringing together key industry and academic partners, and by linking tool development and optimization to human studies to understand behaviour at the formulation/GI tract interface, the collaboration has enabled innovation, optimization and implementation of the requisite biorelevant in vitro tools. In this paper, we present an overview of the in vitro tools investigated during the collaboration and offer a perspective on their future use in enhancing the development of new oral drug products. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.
