Crystallization Process Development: Ramping Up Bench-Scale Control for Manufacturing

Case study
Crystallization

Crystallization is an essential element of drug development, whether it is performed during formation of an API or as a means to purify intermediates. Since physical structure and biological activity are directly linked, controlling the physical form of a compound is paramount to a final drug product’s quality and effectiveness. Drug manufacturers must also demonstrate to regulatory authorities that the physical properties and chemical purity of a drug substance are well understood and controlled. Therefore, the development of a robust crystallization process is an integral part of drug development.

Before scientists can manipulate various critical process parameters to yield the optimal result, they must have an in-depth understanding of the thermodynamic and kinetic processes affecting the product material.
