Single-Use Systems in Sterile & Biomanufacturing

Objectives

The aim of the event is to bring you up to date with the latest developments and possible applications of SU Systems. One important aspect besides overcoming technical issues is ensuring the quality of single-use systems.

Background

Single-use systems have become established in biotechnology and are increasingly used in sterile pharmaceutical manufacturing. Reasons include significantly lower costs compared to stainless steel systems, and reduced expenses for cleaning and cleaning validation. Additionally, time-to-market can be shortened due to the elimination of construction activities and faster scale-up. For ‘small batch products’ and ATMPs, there are sometimes no other solutions available. SUS is also increasingly being used in the production of clinical material.

Regulatory requirements for single-use systems are becoming more defined, but true harmonization is still lacking despite industry efforts. Challenges beyond GMPs include extended delivery times for single-use equipment, reduced raw material availability, and high dependence on suppliers. These and other topics will be addressed at the Single-Use Systems Conference and discussed with experts from authorities, pharmaceutical manufacturing, single-use suppliers and universities.
