Follow on Google News | Novozymes Biopharma collaborates with Almac in Drug Manufacture and Targeting TechnologiesBy: Novozymes Biopharma Novozymes and Almac have a solid history of cooperation in peptide and small molecule conjugation projects. The formalisation of this collaboration offers drug developers the immediate benefit of continuity of service provision through the stages of clinical development -delivering efficiencies in time and internal resource, whilst increasing the chances of clinical success. Clients will also benefit from extensive experience in product and service provision to the pharmaceutical industry with access to a comprehensive level of both technical and regulatory support. Novozymes’ Recombumin® Flex technology will be the focal point of this collaboration. Novozymes has modified the amino acid sequence of human albumin to increase its receptor affinity, providing novel properties including improved half-life extension and drug targeting. This technology naturally complements Almac’s expertise in peptide and small molecule manufacturing, and can also be allied to its world-class protein conjugation technology offerings. As a result, clients will be able to successfully use Almac’s technology to link Recombumin® Flex to their drug products as part of one contract service offering. “By working alongside Almac, we are confident that we will be able to create more opportunities for developers seeking to benefit from the Recombumin® Flex technology.” Denis Geffroy, VP Business Development for Almac stated: “This alliance has clear benefits for companies involved in both drug development and delivery technologies: Both Almac and Novozymes Biopharma will be exhibiting at CPhI WorldWide: Almac in Hall 4.2 L08, and Novozymes Hall 6.2 62E47. ### About Novozymes Novozymes (http://bit.ly/ With over 700 products used in 130 countries, Novozymes’ bioinnovations improve industrial performance and safeguard the world’s resources by offering superior and sustainable solutions for tomorrow’s ever-changing marketplace.
