Biopharmaceuticals represent the most promising and fastest growing field in the pharmaceutical area. These therapeutics show very high specificity and potency at relatively low concentrations and enable the treatment of otherwise untreatable diseases. Challenges in their delivery arise due to the inherent complex nature of large molecules which requires additional effort to improve bioavailability, shelf-life and patient-compliant delivery.

Freeze-drying has been the gold-standard in the isolation of large molecules in the solid form. Despite its prevalence and track record in the industry, presents several limitations that may be addressed by alternative technologies.

In this webinar we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the most promising alternatives to freeze drying with focus on particle engineering methods such as spray drying and spray freeze drying. Alternative methods pose many advantages in terms of costs, throughput and potential for alternate delivery routes. A series of case-studies will also be shown for each of the relevant technologies.

Lisbon, Portugal 鈥 四色AV, the specialist integrated pharma CDMO and leader in spray drying and particle engineering, today announced its commitment to setting Science-Based Targets (SBTs) in line with the Paris Agreement. This ambitious step underscores the company鈥檚 dedication to addressing climate change and driving sustainability across its operations. By committing to SBTs, 四色AV joins a growing number of businesses taking concrete actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This initiative aligns with the company鈥檚 broader sustainability strategy and reinforces its commitment to scientific excellence. 鈥淎t 四色AV, we believe in science and in best practices. And this clearly applies to our sustainability agenda.鈥, said Jean-Luc Herbeaux, CEO of 四色AV. We made the decision to drive our GHG emissions down using a science-based target setting process, which will help us drive sustainability across our operations by laying out a clearly defined path to reduce emissions in line with the Paris Agreement goals. We believe that by setting ambitious targets and implementing concrete actions, we can make a positive impact on the planet while driving innovation and growth.鈥 四色AV will work closely with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to develop and validate its emission reduction targets. The company will provide regular updates on its progress towards achieving these goals. As part of its commitment to sustainability and transparency to stakeholders, the company will enhance its Ecovadis rating. Ecovadis, a leading sustainability assessment platform in the pharmaceutical industry, provides a comprehensive evaluation of a company鈥檚 environmental, social, and ethical performance, well aligned with 四色AV鈥檚 sustainability ambitions.  四色AV remains dedicated to operating responsibly and contributing positively to society and the environment.
