Cambrex is here to support you in early-phase development. Our development experts apply their ingenuity and skill to address your unique challenges.
Our teams of creative problem-solvers work closely with you to accelerate drug development timelines, optimize processes, and meet regulatory requirements.
We understand that the commercial phase of drug development can be challenging, especially when it comes to manufacturing at scale and meeting changing market demands.
Cambrex is a leading global supplier of more than 70 generic APIs, as well as intermediates and derivatives.
Measuring and describing the properties of a material play an essential role from early development to quality control processes during production. You need material characterization to collect polymorph data showing that your API exhibits the intended behavior. You also need to identify drug product excipients to ensure batch consistency.
While good material characterization will identify and resolve process-related problems, inadequate material characterization can lead to unreliable product quality. This can manifest as inconsistent results during a clinical trial, leading to missed milestone targets from out-of-specification results at release or on stability. In production, this deficiency may require a complete redesign of the process.
The methods used to study and characterize your small or large molecule are complex. At Cambrex, our team of experts has the technical experience to run sophisticated analyses and the expertise to interpret the results. Your molecule is our mission.
Looking for a partner that balances passion with painstaking attention to detail? Speak to one of our characterization experts about how we can help you succeed.
Our material characterization capabilities include:
Characterize loss of mass, phase transitions, melting points, stability and purity analysis using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).
Analyze particle size using laser diffraction to ensure that active and excipient materials maintain expected processing and performance characteristics.
Detect, identify and quantify polymorph impurities (polymorphic screening) in support of process chemistry, API manufacturing, release and stability, using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD).
Test for elemental impurities using redundant inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), with microwave digestion available.
In our latest whitepaper, we dive deeper into the strategic benefits of outsourcing stability storage, provide you with a comprehensive guide on how to select the right partner for your needs, and highlight case studies that showcase real-world examples of pharmaceutical companies that have successfully outsourced stability storage and reaped the benefits.
Performing stability storage in-house can entail significant costs and risks for pharmaceutical and medical device companies, including capital and operational expenditures, compliance risks, and opportunity costs due to capacity constraints. In our recent infographic, we highlight the various costs and risks associated with in-house stability storage.
Outsourcing stability storage to the right partner can help pharmaceutical and medical device companies by saving costs, freeing resources, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Our infographic highlights the advantages of outsourcing over in-house storage, such as faster product development, risk mitigation, flexibility, and access to expert insights and customized solutions.
