At West, our focus is on supporting the biopharmaceutical industry in qualification and commercialization of containment and delivery systems for injectable medicines. Selecting high-quality drug packaging that meets regulatory standards is essential to a drug manufacturer’s success. West’s top priority is delivering high-quality packaging products that meet the exacting quality standards and product specifications customers require.
West’s Global Technical Customer Support (TCS) Team is key to this effort – focusing on biopharmaceutical industry needs and partnering with customers throughout the process of selecting and qualifying primary packaging solutions and drug delivery systems. This includes a sound understanding of both the packaging requirements defined by the drug product and the regulatory standards. TCS also provides technical information and scientific data on West and Daikyo products, and facilitates interaction with other West services, e.g. West Analytical Services, to reduce drug product time to market.
Additionally, TCS is active in the biopharmaceutical industry, e.g., participation in industry groups, attending conferences and exhibitions, and delivering technical reports and presentations. This enables TCS to be constantly aware of the latest trends.
Broad technical knowledge, understanding of industry needs, and service excellence ensure that West TCS remains the scientific destination for customers.
Contact a Technical Customer Support representative today to see how West can support you bringing safe, effective drug products to the market.
Defined under US FDA 21 CFR 3.2 (e)(2), a <em>co-packaged combination product</em> consists of “two or more separate products packaged together in a single package or as a unit and comprised of drug and device products, device and biological products, or biological and drug products”. (1) These device products can range from delivery devices, to bandages, to antimicrobial swabs. Understanding the regulations around such a wide range of devices can be challenging; drug companies often look to the device manufacturer/provider for guidance when filing.

Primary container systems for storage and delivery of protein and peptide drugs (i.e., biologics), including vials and prefillable syringes, are typically made of glass or polymer, and include an elastomeric component (stopper or plunger). Proteins adsorb to most surfaces. Generally, the resultant loss of drug is not an issue since the amount adsorbed is on the order of 2-10 mg/mL, or not more than approximately 5 µg per 2 mL vial, or 13 µg per 5 mL vial.<br />
