Lyophilization offers unique properties for delivering critical parenteral drugs. Therefore, developing the formulation and the manufacturing process is challenging. Only through a clear identification of the process and key excipients can a robust formulation be developed and manufactured.
The first session introduces participants to the basics of lyophilization and why we lyophilize drug products. Typical approaches to developing a drug product formulation and lyophilization process development will be discussed.
Next, after a brief review of the basics of lyophilization, participants will be able to dive deep into understanding selection of excipients for formulations, solution formulation development, thermal analysis, and lyophilization formulation development. Participants will then learn how to develop ideal lyophilization process conditions through optimization of primary and secondary drying.
Discussions will then address the first principles of heat and mass transfer in the process. Participants will also learn to establish a residual moisture specification. This will be followed by a demonstration on the use of the freeze-dry microscope by The McCrone Group.
At the end of the course, you will be able to identify analytical techniques that are available to characterize drug products. The final goal of the course is to offer an understanding of the challenges involved in aseptic manufacturing and transfer of lyophilization cycles from R&D to Production.
This intensive training includes a demonstration conducted by The McCrone Group, Inc.
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:
You will be redirected to our secure system.
This course is intended for those who are new to the area of lyophilization as well as those who have a basic understanding of lyophilization technology and would like to learn formulation and process development from a research & development perspective.
The course will specifically benefit those in R&D, formulation, and manufacturing. Managers and supervisors of this personnel will also benefit from this training by learning about the challenges they face.
