Viscosity Reduction Platform by Merck
Carrying out intended dosing regimens often require highly concentrated protein formulations that may be too viscous for subcutaneous administration or other routes of administration that are limited by volume. While reducing viscosity with a single excipient can be ineffective or compromising protein stability, Merck/Millipore Sigma’s viscosity reduction platform of new excipient combinations offers a variety of manufacturing and final formulation benefits:
- Efficient viscosity reduction via synergistic excipient combinations
- Platform flexibility with the right solution for your protein
- Maintenance of protein stability
- Well characterized safety profile (prior parenteral in-human applications and toxicological assessment available upon request)
- IP protection for competitive differentiation
The result: subcutaneous administration of protein-based therapeutics to improve patient compliance and help avoid hospitalization.
Enabling subcutaneous formulation of biologics
Merck/Millipore Sigma’s viscosity reduction platform of new excipient combinations enables subcutaneous formulation of highly concentrated protein biologics, bringing together increased concentrations and improved downstream processing. As part of Merck/Millipore Sigma’s industry leading Emprove® Program, all excipients are or will be made available in Emprove® Expert quality to support your clinical development and commercialization helping you to minimize regulatory and quality-associated risks.
