This article deals with the identification and characterization of process-related impurities of trans-resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene), which exhibits several health benefits, including cancer prevention. During the synthesis of the bulk drug resveratrol, three new impurities were observed. The impurities were detected using the high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method, whose area percentages ranged from 0.05 to 0.3%. A systematic study was carried out to characterize them. These impurities were isolated by preparative HPLC and characterized by spectral data, subjected to co-injection in HPLC, and were found to be matching with the impurities present in the sample. LC-MS was performed to identify the mass of these impurities. Based on their spectral data (IR, NMR, and Mass), these impurities were characterized as 2-benzyl-5-[(E)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethenyl]benzene-1,3-diol [Impurity-B], 3-(benzyloxy)-5-[(E)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethenyl]phenol [Impurity-C], 5-{(E)-2-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]ethenyl}benzene-1,3-diol [Impurity-D). These compounds are not reported earlier as process-related impurities.

In this study, a new reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography method using two detectors was developed for the analysis of degradation and process impurities of ivabradine in pharmaceutical preparations. A PDA detector set to 285 nm wavelength and a QDa detector set to positive scan mode were used in the method. In the developed method, the separation process was carried out in a Zorbax phenyl column with a gradient application of a 0.

Characterizing and mitigating factors that impact product immunogenicity can aid in risk assessment and/or managing risk following manufacturing changes. For follow-on products that have the same indication, patient population, and active product ingredient, the residual immunogenicity risk resides predominantly on differences in product and process related impurities. Characterizing differences in innate immune modulating impurities (IIRMI), which could act as adjuvants by activating local antigen presenting cells (APCs), can inform the immunogenicity risk assessment potentially reducing the need for clinical trials.

Harmonizing unit operations in the downstream process of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has a high potential to overcome throughput limitations and reduce manufacturing costs. This study proposes a streamlined clarification and capture (S-CC) process concept for the continuous processing of cell broth harvested from a connected bioreactor. The process was realized with a fluidized bed centrifuge connected to depth and sterile filters, a surge tank, and a multi-column chromatography (MCC) unit.

Early-phase manufacturability assessment of high-concentration therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) involves screening of process-related risks impacting their translation into the clinic. Manufacturing a mAb at scale relies on cost-effective and robust approaches to derisk manufacturability parameters, such as viscosity, conformational stability, aggregation, and process-related impurities. Using a panel of model anti-IL-8 IgG1 mutants, we investigate upstream and downstream processability, phase behavior, and process-related impurities.

Background: Pegfilgrastim is a long-acting recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor biologic that is indicated to reduce the incidence of infections, manifested by febrile neutropenia, in patients receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs and to increase survival in patients acutely exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation. Due to the high cost of biologic therapy and the scarcity of biosimilar alternatives, there is an unmet medical need for targeted biologics.
Objective: This comparative analytical investigation aimed to confirm the similarity of biosimilar Stimufend® (pegfilgrastim-fpgk) to reference product Neulasta® (pegfilgrastim).
