West Pharmaceuticals will participate in two poster presentation sessions at the Parenteral Drug Association (PDA) Annual Meeting, taking place March 16-18, 2015 in Las Vegas. During the meeting, West will also showcase innovations in integrated drug packaging and delivery systems that help ensure the quality, safety and efficacy of injectable drug products for pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturers worldwide at booth #405.
West Presentations:
“High-quality packaging systems are essential for any drug product. If the drug product reacts chemically with the containment materials or cannot be effectively stored, it may not be safe or effective for the patient,” said Fran L. DeGrazio, Vice President, Global R&D, TCS and SPM, Pharmaceutical Packaging Systems. “With more complex drugs coming onto the market, quality in drug packaging is more essential than ever. It’s important for pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturers to seek a trusted partner to help design and manufacture sophisticated drug packaging and delivery systems that meet the needs of both the drug and the patient. We look forward to meeting with PDA attendees to discuss solutions for these current and future challenges for parenteral drug administration.”
Visitors to booth #405 can learn more about West’s industry-leading drug packaging and delivery system technologies at, including:

The number of biologic drug products marketed with an injection device has approximately quadrupled over the last decade. The growth in these drug therapies has been driven by several factors including new, self-administered therapies for chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune diseases. In addition, injectable therapy is now being considered as a treatment for more conditions, including asthma and cholesterol problems.
Join West’s Graham Reynolds as he presents the keynote at Pharmapack North America. Graham will present, “<em><strong>Understanding the regulations and safety concerns surrounding injectables to overcome inherent design challenges” </strong>on </em>Wednesday, May 23, 2012 at 1:50 pm. The conference will be held at the Pennsylvania Convention Center, Philadelphia, PA on May 22-23.
At some point early in the development of a drug product, pharmaceutical manufacturers must make a very important choice. How will the final product be delivered to the patient? That choice leads to a variety of additional choices regarding drug formulations, stability, container closure systems and the various interactions of the drug with its packaging, and ultimately, patient compliance.
In 2012, the pharmaceutical industry will face many challenges, not the least of which will be the need to adjust research and development and business models to respond to the growing importance of specialty pharmaceuticals. Such products include sensitive biopharmaceuticals and the growth of biosimilars. Efficiency in manufacturing and the ability to meet critical compliance standards are a must to compete and meet today’s challenges.
Competition is increasing in the biopharmaceutical pipeline due to a growing number of new entrants, more players are bringing their drug all the way to market and many companies are utilizing accelerated development pathways, making it an even faster race to market. If you are like many other newly formed biotech companies, you’re doing your best to manage many activities critical to your success with limited resources, all while trying to accelerate your path to market.
