GlaxoSmithKline Provides an Update on the 3-Stage Validation Approach for Lyophilized Products

LONDON - April 17, 2014 - PRLog -- With the ever increasing cost of pharmaceutical products, the importance of research into the formulation and stability of drugs has never been higher. World renowned companies from all over the globe use research to optimise the synthesis and storage of their products through the process of lyophilisation. Biological products ranging from proteins, vaccines to other injectables must remain effective from manufacture to patient administration.

GlaxoSmithKline will be speaking at this years' Lyophilisation conference (http://www.smi-online.co.uk/2014lyophilisation61.asp) to provide a case study and present the latest advances in the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical freeze-drying field.

Highlights from the presentation entitled: 3-stage validation approach for Lyophilized products, will include:

Technology Transfer: Evaluation of an existing commercial product
Development: Establishing a new lyophilised product
Advancement: Discussion of the latest methods in the freeze-drying field

Lyophilisation 2014 will provide a mix of case study led presentations, panel debates and keynote addresses that have been tailored to an audience of professionals involved in PAT implementation, mathematical modelling, design and scale-up, to optimising and validating freeze drying life cycles. The above is just a snap shot of what will be covered at the event. To download a brochure visit www.lyophilisation-conference.com (http://www.smi-online.co.uk/2014lyophilisation61.asp).
