Clinical API Manufacturing

Reliable manufacturing of drug substances for clinical trials is critical for any pharmaceutical company, but it can be particularly challenging for small and emerging organizations if they lack the in-house expertise, capacity or scale needed as the demand becomes greater in later phases.

At Cambrex, our flexible clinical manufacturing services can supply the clinical trial drug substance materials you need to meet your changing demands. We work closely with your team to understand the clinical development plan and to provide a nimble and flexible clinical manufacturing solution. Our highly trained operations team collaborates closely with our process chemists and process engineers, who accompany the process into the pilot manufacturing facility to ensure smooth transfer to later-phase clinical batches through commercial launch.
