Clinical Trial Production and Supply

Using our in-house manufacturing facilities and equipment, we have the ability to manufacture your drug product and medical devices for use in development studies and clinical trials.

In addition to our extensive development manufacturing facilities, we have separate GMP manufacturing facilities for dry powder inhalers (DPIs), pMDIs and nebulizer medical devices, and we have further capability to handle biological molecules.

A dedicated manufacturing team operates our GMP manufacturing facilities and equipment, which are relevant-to-commercial scale and meet all required EHS, quality and regulatory standards.

With GMP spray drying, powder blending and filling, as well as DPI device assembly, choose Phillips Medisize as your partner for dry powder development programs—from early development through all clinical phases of development to small-scale commercialization.

Spray Drying

With development and GMP spray drying capabilities providing batches from 1 g to 10 kg, you can be confident in scale-up with comprehensive process understanding and controls.

Powder Blending

Our powder blending capabilities offer flexibility based on the needs of your formulation up to 30 kg batch size:

  • High shear
  • Low shear (tumble blending)
  • Mechanofusion

Capsule and Blister Filling

Volumetric, dosator and fill-to-weight technology

Device Assembly

Semi-automated device assembly up to 1 million devices per year

Case Study

Substitutable DPI Manufacturing

Opportunity

For a substitutable DPI drug product for the US market, we manufactured the drug product for a partner through the entire drug product development cycle: from laboratory-scale batches for development to pilot-scale clinical batches to commercially representative bio-equivalence batches.

Solution

The bio-equivalence batches were manufactured at a 30 kg blend scale, with each blend being filled into over 30,000 blister strips and assembled into inhalers using components molded from multi-cavity tools that had been installed at a contract manufacturing organization. The FDA reviewed the manufacture of these batches and was satisfied that the manufacturing equipment, processes and controls were fully representative of those used subsequently at the partner’s commercial manufacturing site.
