An Investment in Drug Purity
West FluroTec Stoppers can:
FluroTec film is applied during the molding process and is conformable to complex-shaped closures, which are typically required for dry powder and lyophilized applications. Lyopholization closures with West FluroTec are available in a single-vented design that is proven effective in eliminating mechanical twinning, the interlocking of double-vented stoppers during processing.
Lyophilization (freeze drying) is the process of dehydrating a material at low temperature and reduced pressure. It is used to extend the shelf life of many biologic drug products. Absent water, degradation processes are greatly reduced. In any primary package system (i.e., vial, elastomer stopper, seal) for a lyophilized drug product, of utmost concern are leachables and volatile organic compounds that may migrate from the elastomer stopper into the lyophilized drug product, creating a risk to patient safety.

There is no doubt biologics and biosimilars will remain one of the hot topics in 2021. This is due to the pandemic period of SARS-CoV-2 and the innovative treatments and vaccines that are under development at accelerated speed. Several questions can arise regarding selection of the proper primary package system for a biologic/biosimilar.

An enormous growth trend is being observed in the market for biologic drugs; they are being employed ever more frequently as treatments for chronic issues such as cancer and autoimmune diseases. This growth is reflected by the number of companies involved (established and emerging), and in the capital investment for manufacturing facilities for both biologics and biosimilars. Companies must apply a holistic approach to bringing a biologic drug to market.
