Webinar series Protecting Parenteral Drugs: Addressing Industry Concerns and Solutions for Ensuring Drug Integrity and Patient Safety
Webinar | January 12, 2023

Datwyler will host a series of 5 webinars in 2023 focused on educating the industry on proven and reliable parenteral packaging solutions that protect drug integrity and ensure patient safety.

  • Webinar 1
Jan 23, 2023
Protecting Parenteral Drugs - Webinar series 1/5

In this webcast, the importance of a patient-appropriate BL & GF profile and the importance of optimization for efficacious drug-delivery will be discussed.

10 a.m. (EST)
(#)Anchor Webinar 1/5
(#)Anchor Understanding Break-loose & Glide Force Behavior in Prefilled Syringe Systems

Prefilled syringes (PFS) are effective drug-delivery systems that are patient-friendly and conserve drug product. Though these systems offer clear advantages as a drug delivery platform, their designation as combination products offer additional regulatory challenges. As a combination product, the mechanical functionality of the syringe-elastomer system is an important consideration. An element to consider is the break-loose force (BL) and gliding force (GF) profile.

In this webcast, the importance of a patient-appropriate BL & GF profile and the importance of optimization for efficacious drug-delivery will be discussed, in addition to:

  • Factors that affect BLF & GF profiles

  • Force exertion considerations for different patient populations

  • Strategies for elastomer selection to optimize BL&GF profiles for consistent performance

(#)Anchor Key Learning Objectives
  • Know the challenges faced by pharmaceutical companies when producing a PFS system

  • Understand how the interplay between elastomer, barrel, and silicone impacts functional behavior like the BLF & GF

  • Gain insight into interactions at the elastomer/ barrel interface and discuss elastomeric options that can help to improve consistency with BLF & GF curve

(#)Anchor Who Should Attend
  • Quality/regulatory personnel in parenteral drug delivery

  • Formulation scientists and packaging engineers

  • Device development engineers and managers

  • Technical functions surrounding drug delivery systems

  • Extractable and leachable experts

  • Procurement professionals
