"The crisis was a pilot phase during which we learned more about the strength of our systems" 
Interview given by Marie-Liesse Le Corfec, Marketing Director of the BD Medical - Pharmaceutical Systems' portfolio, who leads an internal Task Force in order to coordinate the response and strategy targeting the pharmaceutical industry during the health crisis

While traditional vaccine formulations are commonly stored up to about 2°C-8°C, new vaccine formulations – including those for mRNA – require much colder storage for over a long period of time to ensure drug-product shelf-life and potency. Such low temperatures can induce changes in container dimensions, phase transition - liquid to solid and vice versa - and thermal shock. This could compromise the functional performance of the delivery system and Container Closure Integrity (CCI). BD began its investigation on the impact of deep cold storage on glass PFS as soon as information regarding the deep cold storage requirement for mRNA COVID-19 vaccines became available in 2020.

BD study reveals that glass PFS can be stored at -20°C and -40°C without risk on PFS key product functions, establishing pathway to further assess the stability and performance of drug combination products with PFS in deep cold conditions.

The development of new parenteral biologics with high-volume, high-viscosity formulations (> 1 mL, >15 cP) is triggering the need for devices that can deliver these therapies with the ease, safety, and low injection time required for self-injection. As these formulations come to market, pharmaceutical and biotech companies must make critical device choices from an array of largely unproven options. The attachment discusses how companies can de-risk their device selection as they bring this new generation of high-volume, high-viscosity biologics to market.

The COVID-19 pandemic has lead governments, companies and research institutions to accelerate vaccine development efforts amid geopolitical crosscurrents. Despite an increased understanding of immune responses to infection, research is often hindered by a lack of knowledge of the immune responses explicitly required for protection, or by a lack of approved adjuvants and delivery systems to induce the needed answers. Licensing new vaccines also require a significant financial commitment which also represents a challenge. This webinar will discuss the hurdles that new vaccines must overcome to reduce morbidity and mortality, as well as some of the initiatives that are being attempted to accelerate and scale up the next generation of vaccine development for global disease prevention.

This webinar originally aired as part of CPHI Discover - 17-28 May 2021 Several factors motivate pharmaceutical companies and hospitals to use glass pre-fillable syringes (PFS) for Intravenous (IV) applications. By switching from vials and ampules to a glass PFS, hospitals have the potential to reduce medical errors, improve workflow efficiency and impact ROI for hospital stakeholders. Moreover, data suggests that approximately 92% of hospital stakeholders are willing to use prefilled syringes for multiple drugs. For pharmaceutical companies, transitioning a fixed-dose drug from its vial or ampule format to a prefilled syringe can serve as a differentiation strategy in a market dominated by vials and ampules. This session will examine the benefits and challenges associated with glass formats and will explore BD’s glass pre-fillable syringe with connection performance verified for IV applications.

This webinar originally aired as part of CPHI Discover - 17-28 May 2021 The need to reduce health care costs, improve outcomes, and increase access to remote care are intensifying the focus on patient care delivery in the home setting.

In this webinar, originally broadcast as a part of Pharmapack Europe, Eve-Marie Vaccaro, Global Sales & Operation Planner, and Edgar Bauer, Global Key Account Manager Bausch+Ströbel from BD Medical - Pharmaceutical Systems discuss how VHP sterilization is a viable alternative for ensuring improved patient safety by providing a sterile product application for drug delivery devices, such as pre-filled syringes with temperature or radiation sensitive drug products, that are too sensitive for conventional methods of sterilization. Material selections, device design, properties of the pre-filled syringe, and secondary packaging decisions (shape, materials) play an important role in ensuring the sterilization process is successful. The major things to avoid are known in the industry, but there are more opportunities for proactively preparing for this in advance, during the design phase, when making considerations for the intended sterilization method - for example - thinking about applying the IPCD (internal process challenge device and EPCD (external process challenge device) in good time beforehand. These are key considerations when aiming at short lead-time product-to-market strategy - from sterilization perspective. This presentation looks at these from this viewpoint.

Transitioning drugs from IV to subcutaneous (SC) delivery brings new requirements and impacts program considerations for combination product development. In this session, we identify trade-offs that pharma weighs to de-risk combination product development programs involving large volume subcutaneous (LVSC) delivery. Key issues can include: Understanding the patient experience throughout the injection process with large volume subcutaneous delivery Reducing risk of user variability to gain market confidence in successfully delivering LVSC formulations Leveraging partner capabilities, insights, and data to inform combination product trade-offs and program risks Manufacturability of the combination product including the delivery system and integration into the pharmaceutical operations network Exploring the value of drug delivery technology used consistently from clinical development into commercial use Examples of how these issues can impact a combination product development program may be explored.

Sub-optimal adherence and persistence to treatment continue to be significant challenges for both on-market drugs and investigational products in clinical development. This is especially true for self-administered medications for chronic disease patients, hence driving the need for improved treatment intake monitoring technologies. To answer this need, BD and Biocorp have joined forces to develop a connected version of the BD UltraSafe Plus™ Passive Needle Guard that facilitates the traceability of injections. During this workshop, the speakers will welcome you for an interactive presentation featuring the following topics: • Unmet needs in clinical & real-life settings: the challenge of treatment adherence • The solution: overview of the connected BD UltraSafe Plus™ Passive Needle Guard, technical details and value proposition for different stakeholders • Interactive demo session • Use cases: how the connected BD UltraSafe Plus™ Passive Needle Guard can fit into clinical and real-life practices

As the number of patients managing chronic diseases continues to increase, self-injection solutions play an important role in enabling the shift towards home care. Identification of potential use errors is a critical task during device development to support patient acceptance and usability. The design of these solutions can help overcome some of the usability challenges associated with self-injection, such as injection time limits and risk of premature device removal. As biologic dose volume and viscosity increases, meeting injection time requirements and usability considerations with autoinjectors can be increasingly challenging. During this session, we will discuss device design elements that can impact the hold time of autoinjectors and the resulting usability considerations, such as the gap between second click and actual end of dose. Premature device removal is one example of usability errors that can result from the second click occurring before actual end of dose. Design alternatives to avoid risk of premature device removal during self-administration will be explored including that of the BD Physioject™ Disposable Autoinjector and the BD Libertas™ Wearable Injector.

Human Factors Engineering (HFE) process participates in the product development for a safe and effective use by the end-user population.
