Practical steps for innovating pharmaceutical manufacturing

Innovation in pharmaceutical manufacturing is accelerating, driven by the need for greater efficiency, flexibility and product quality.

As new technologies and materials are introduced, polymeric excipients such as PLGAs along with packaging system and product contact materials are playing an increasingly critical role in product safety and performance.

From single-use technologies to complex polymer-based container closure systems, manufacturers must carefully evaluate how materials interact with drug products. Extractables and leachables (E&L) have become a key consideration, with the potential to impact product stability, efficacy and regulatory compliance if not properly managed.

Polymer-based excipients, including lactide-glycolide and lactic acid-glycolic acid polymers (PLGs and PLGAs, collectively referred to as LG polymers), play a vital role in enhancing controlled drug release, delivery and bioavailability particularly in long-acting injectable (LAI) formulations. While these excipients offer multiple benefits, the industry faces challenges in excipient selection due to naming differences, formulation complexity, and raw material variability.

In this webinar, industry experts shared practical steps for advancing pharmaceutical manufacturing while embedding robust packaging strategies and E&L risk assessments into development and production. Attendees will gain insight into how a proactive, integrated approach can help minimise risk, streamline approvals and support successful product lifecycle management.

What you will learn:

• Drive manufacturing innovation while maintaining control over product–packaging interactions
• Integrate extractables and leachables (E&L) assessments early in development
• Select and qualify packaging materials and container closure systems with confidence
• Address challenges associated with single-use systems and polymer components
• Align innovation strategies with regulatory expectations for E&L and packaging
