The pharmaceutical industry is shifting toward pre-filled syringes (PFS) as the optimal delivery system for many drug products. The utility of a syringe system is dependent upon its ability to maintain good container closure integrity (CCI) through drug product shelf life.<br />
Exposure to light is a concern with numerous medications due to the potential for photodegradation or other chemical reactions during manufacturing, storage, and administration<sup>(1)</sup>. This may result in potency loss, altered efficacy and adverse biological effects. The sensitivity of a drug to a distinct spectral region of light may vary with its chemical structure, photoreactivity, and nature of the dosage form. The photochemical behavior of a drug provides guidance for handling, packaging, and labeling of drug products. The use of the appropriate containers and packaging material can protect the products from the deleterious effects of light.
Polymeric container systems are not new to the pharmaceutical industry, and their benefits in terms of break resistance, cosmetic quality and dimensional precision have been recognized by many companies around the world who have chosen to use a polymer vial or syringe.
As global healthcare systems become more heavily reliant on radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostics and treatment, ensuring that the radioactive drug is safely contained for the duration of its shelf life has never been more vital.<br />
<p>Tibor Hlobik, Director, Prefillable Solutions and Technologies<br />Mike Gills, Customer Technical Support Process Engineer</p><p>Growth in biopharmaceutical therapeutics is leading innovation with prefillable syringe systems. These complex sensitive drug products require highly inert primary packaging materials for improved stability and delivery in perfect quality for reduced safety risk. This <span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://www.westpharma.com/west-login">poster</a></span> will provide a quality comparison of primary prefillable syringe options including glass, coatings/laminates and cyclic olefin polymers, and highlight the findings of a case study comparing 1mL long syringe attributes.</p>
