What Is Pemetrexed?
Pemetrexed is a antifolate antimetabolite used for lung cancer, mesothelioma. Multi-targeted antifolate for non-small cell lung cancer and malignant pleural mesothelioma. Burrard Pharmaceuticals offers complete technology transfer know-how packages for Pemetrexed manufacturing, including master batch formulas, manufacturing process parameters, stability data, and CTD/eCTD regulatory dossier templates.
Manufacturing Overview
Pemetrexed manufacturing requires GMP-compliant facilities with cytotoxic containment capabilities. The formulation process involves precise compounding, pH adjustment, sterile filtration, aseptic filling, and lyophilization to produce stable powder for reconstitution. All operations require dedicated containment facilities with appropriate personnel protection.
Key Manufacturing Challenges
- Cytotoxic handling requiring dedicated containment facilities
- Lyophilization cycle optimization for cake quality and reconstitution
- Sterile filtration and aseptic filling validation
- Impurity control and degradation pathway management
- Light and/or moisture sensitivity during manufacturing
- Scale-up from lab to commercial production
