INJECTABLE DRUG DELIVERY ARTICLES

Delivered _by _DeGrazio_Logo_Color_2 6 Packaging And Delivery Challenges For Biologic Therapies

In this article, Fran DeGrazio identifies six aspects of biologics-based therapy packaging and delivery that, if addressed, may help to ensure successful product development and lifecycle management. They include 1) chemical compatibility with device functionality, 2) long-acting formulations, 3) product stability, 4) primary packaging and device integration, 5) cold storage, and 6) higher concentrations and viscosities.

INJECTABLE DRUG DELIVERY RESOURCES

INJECTABLE DRUG DELIVERY SOLUTIONS

  • Examine a NVGD platform that tackles the primary obstacle hindering gene editing therapies: efficient delivery. Utilizing engineered nanoparticles, the platform overcomes limitations associated with payload size.

  • Kymanox provides turnkey services to bring your product from concept to commercialization — and helps keep your product on the market. Kymanox has expertise in injectables (e.g., syringes, mechanical and electromechanical autoinjectors, wearable injectors, dual chamber systems, reconstitution systems), respiratory combination products (e.g., metered dose inhalers, dry powder inhalers, nasal sprays), and in ocular products (e.g., multi-dose containers, single-use injectables).

  • Review the potential of Corning Valor® Glass to optimize the fill/finish process and reduce total cost of quality as well as overall manufacturing cost.

  • BD Physioject™ 1 mL Disposable Autoinjector is an easy-to-use autoinjector designed to deliver fixed dose injections subcutaneously.

  • AST aseptic filling products address the unique processing requirements of biologics manufacturing to gently care for biologic products during the fill-finish process. Their highly accurate peristaltic dosing system uses single-use pharmaceutical grade tubing that has been optimized to keep shear stress to an absolute minimum. When exiting the fluid path through the filling needle, the motion control system maintains the fill needle within the container and slowly rises as the product is being dispensed to minimize splashing and foaming that could introduce stress to the product. Temperature controlled filling is also possible with the ASEPTiCell® and GENiSYS® systems. AST has experience dosing products at temperatures as low as 3°C.

  • West presents Crystal Zenith vials in a nested packaging configuration, designed to meet the exterior dimensions of glass standard ISO 8362-1.

  • We offer a comprehensive range of automatic inspection machines for injectable pharmaceutical products contained in ampoules, vials, cartridges, syringes and bottles. Designed and manufactured to meet the most demanding technical requirements, our solutions feature different production speeds and advanced vision standards for an optimum performance.

  • By partnering with Battelle, your organization can reduce risks and save on investment costs, leading to more successful and sustainable outcomes.

  • With world-class facilities, the state-of-the-art equipment and some of the industry’s most talented people, you can feel confident that your small molecule drug product is in safe hands. Learning from decades working with other small molecules, INCOG has been purpose-built to provide better solutions for the global injectable drug product sector.

  • BD Neopak™ XtraFlow™ Glass Prefillable Syringe solution leverages 8 mm needle length in combination with thin wall cannula to reduce pressure drop and enhance flow.
