  • Publication number: 20240415969
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a stable protein composition containing a surfactant and having less than 400 subvisible particles of 10 microns or greater diameter per container, or less than 10,000 subvisible particles of 2 microns or greater per container. A method of manufacturing such a stable protein composition is disclosed, which includes a unit of operation that removes or decreases an esterase activity that degrades the surfactant. The unit of operation may be hydrophobic interaction chromatography or filtration, mixed mode chromatography, or the like.

  • Publication number: 20240207516
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for overfilling primary packaging components, and drug products prepared according to those methods. The methods may include introducing a volume of a formulated drug substance into a primary packaging component having a nominal volume, where the volume of the formulated drug substance is greater than the nominal volume of the primary packaging component. In some cases, the primary packaging component may be a prefillable syringe.
