Summary

The number of new peptide-based therapeutics is rising, and more peptide generics are entering the market. There is an opportunity to improve output and harness the benefits of microwave-assisted solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) in manufacturing. Scaling the synthetic process from the research scale to production scale can be a challenge, particularly in heavily regulated environments.

Automated microwave-assisted SPPS instrumentation can generate production scale peptide active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). This is done by the highly reproducible synthesis of multiple batches at hundreds of millimoles with the same benefits as small scale, all while retaining current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) compliance. Modern instrumentation is equipped with features like audit trail tracing, user permission setup and documentation to ease adoption into a regulated facility.

Join this webinar to learn about scaling up the synthesis of research scale peptide-based therapeutics to production in a cGMP environment.
