Title : Integrated project Biocompact: Built-in, compact system for the handling and conditioning in sterile environment of injectable drugs derived from innovative biotech research and from chemical-physical molecular studies and analyses ABSTRACT: Goal of the project is the development of innovative solutions to maintaining the chemical-physical characteristics of biomolecules in the entire packaging process that must take place in a controlled, aseptic environment, as per injectable liquid drug production standards. DESCRIPTION: Main project goals: In 2001 the European Council invited the Commission to examine measures aimed at developing biotechnologies and bridging the gap between Europe and more advanced countries in the sector. Biotechnological products derive from high-cost research run by specialist small-medium size labs. The standards of the relevant bodies are extremely strict in granting authorisation for the use of new molecules as drugs. Quickly approving new biodrugs, created by research, will encourage the development of small- and medium-size companies in the sector. Complying with and maintaining the chemical-physical characteristics of biomolecules is therefore vital and the entire packaging process must take place in a controlled, aseptic environment, as per injectable liquid drug production standards. The packaging system aimed at handling these products must meet the following requirements: - Compact size, easy to transport, elimination of line set-up times since the built-in module, already complete with utilities on board the machine, will be supplied already validated and may even be installed in small spaces - Low purchase price and running costs (savings on electricity, water, etc.) - Adoption of ?disposable? dosing systems to avoid cross contamination of products - Adoption of a single SW to ensure repeatability of container washing/sterilisation, product distribution, container closure processes - Rapid operational interventions guided by interactive system - Reduction of environmental impact for disposal of refluent (elimination of wash detergents) - Safety for operators (elimination of chemical sterilisation products). The knowledge acquired in the biotech sector, with the search for new materials that do not yield particles which can be used for conditioning, may be adopted to increase the quality of systems dedicated to the traditional pharmaceutical sector. Contents Content INFO SHEET N°1 : Design and manufacture of a compact module for the packaging of injectable liquids derived from Biotechnological Research. The main characteristics of the new module will include: compact size, low cost and quick set-up times. The main prerogative is to be shipped ready assembled in all its parts including the utilities, after the production process having been validated during the final inspection at I.M.A. The management SW, able to support all the more innovative and efficient liquid filling systems, allows rapid installation. Compared with a traditional packaging line, the module can be made operational much more quickly, allowing biotech labs to produce the first batches of new drugs for on-site experimentation in a very short time. Content INFO SHEET N°2 : Indication of the chemical-physical characteristics of biotechnological molecules for analysing their compatibility with the distribution systems that can be used for packaging them in sterile environment. Experimental verification of the absence of alterations in the structure of the molecular chain of the drug after packaging. Study of new molecules, where applicable, for the creation of innovative drugs able to combat some genetic alterations more effectively. 2 Content INFO SHEET N°3: Study and development of SW specific for the integrated module able to manage the entire production process: container washing/sterilisation, liquid product distribution, vial closure with checking of single operative phases of the entire biotech compact. All solutions aimed at guaranteeing repeatability of processes must be adopted in order to allow the validation of the operating system in compliance with CFR 21-part.11. The management of liquid product distribution must be compatible with all filling systems that may be adopted on the compact for packaging products in compliance with injectable drug production standards (sterile environment, etc.). Other activities compatible with the research programme. Content INFO SHEET N°4: Study and development of innovative “disposable” filling systems for the handling of Biotech liquids to avoid cross-contamination of products to be distributed on the packaging machine. The system must ensure compliance with injectable liquid drug production standards (product sterility, dosing precision, etc.) and allow repeatability of the process in order to obtain validation. Content INFO SHEET N°5: Study and development of new biodegradable materials in the ?disposable? filling system components to increase the safety of the handled product, to facilitate the disposal, after use, of disassembled equipment to safeguard the environment. Certification and traceability of materials used for components. Content INFO SHEET N° 6: Consultancy related to the development and co-ordination of an exhaustive research which considers deep activities of data mining and gives scientific valency and measurable contents of: tests and deepenings about problems and chances showed by the field of the research on biopharmceuticals with regard to the required plants for the production of injectable biopharmceuticals; the identification of the necessary strategies to the fulfilment of plants for distribution process; the evaluation of market impact of community policy for research of policies for sustainable development, in order to plan the R&D activities linked to such strategies.
