A Guide to Formulation, Scale-Up, and Manufacturing of Polymeric Microspheres for Long-Acting Depot Injections

Microsphere or microparticle depot injections are complex drug formulations that combine an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) with a bioresorbable polymer such as PLGA. Microsphere-based injections enable the sustained release of APIs over prolonged periods of time, varying from weeks up to several months.

This webinar, co-presented by Powder Systems Ltd (PSL) and Lubrizol Life Science Health (LLS), will cover microsphere development from start to finish, including early-stage considerations through scale-up and GMP manufacturing. Key topics include:

• The history and current state of microsphere depot injections
• How selecting the right polymers, manufacturing techniques, and downstream processing methods help streamline production
• Advice for overcoming common challenges in microsphere development and manufacturing
• A discussion on sterile fill/finish and characterization considerations for long-acting injections

Whether you are new to the field of microspheres or currently developing a long-acting injectable product, you will benefit from the combined experience of PSL and LLS. Register today to learn more about this exciting area of the pharmaceutical market.
