Pharmaron’s biologics analytical development team provides both platform and bespoke physicochemical and biological characterization, as well as method services (development, optimization and qualification/validation). Our team has a wide range of antibody, protein and peptide experience and can support biologics development projects of various protein-based modalities.
- Molecule Characterization – Analytical and biological characterization with respect to physicochemical property and potency, from early-stage molecules to development-stage products
- Method Development – Physicochemical method and bioassay development, optimization, qualification/validation, transfer and trouble-shooting and maintain method lifecycle management (following ICH guidelines)
- Process and Manufacturing Support – Comprehensive set of analytical studies to understand process capability (e.g., support PC and PV) and manufacturing trouble-shooting
- CQAs and Control Systems – Defining product CQAs and the control system (e.g., specifications and stability shelf-life) for GMP manufacturing per client needs
- Data Package and Report – Technical reports to meet client needs and generate IND-enabling analytical data package in support of relevant CTD sections in the regulatory filings
- Flexible Service – Integrated analytical service packages and standalone services
Capabilities
Quality Assurance
