Formulation and Process Development Strategies for Manufacturing Biopharmaceuticals (eBook)

A real-world guide to the production and manufacturing of
biopharmaceuticals

While much has been written about the science of
biopharmaceuticals, there is a need for practical, up-to-date
information on key issues at all stages of developing and
manufacturing commercially viable biopharmaceutical drug products.
This book helps fill the gap in the field, examining all areas of
biopharmaceuticals manufacturing, from development and formulation
to production and packaging.

Written by a group of experts from industry and academia, the
book focuses on real-world methods for maintaining product
integrity throughout the commercialization process, clearly
explaining the fundamentals and essential pathways for all
development stages. Coverage includes:

* Research and early development phase-appropriate approaches
for ensuring product stability

* Development of commercially viable formulations for liquid and
lyophilized dosage forms

* Optimal storage, packaging, and shipping methods

* Case studies relating to therapeutic monoclonal antibodies,
recombinant proteins, and plasma fractions

* Useful analysis of successful and failed products
