Development of new drugs has become more common in the recent past due to the advances in the medical field in terms of technology, technical know-how and expertise. Whereas there are many processes, protein formulation development is relatively common. However the process is huddled with uncertainty, restrictions and regulatory frameworks that must be observed.
When conducting formulation studies, the aim of the researcher is usually to develop a new drug. This has to be a stable, and also auger with the selective needs of the patients. These are usually incorporated into various forms such as tablets or capsules. Apart from the drug itself, the tablets usually contain other substances which should also be compatible with each other. Hence making them adjustable and efficient to use.
Formulation development is one of the most important steps in developing a protein as a beneficial drug. When developing protein strands that are expected to be of precise stability, the resource usage may be overwhelming compared to when formulating for other pharmaceuticals. This is the case since Proteins have such issues as a result of their eccentric complexity.
Sufficient shelf life needs to be determined under conditions to which the product will be exposed in the system of a patient. This however is not applicable as the shelf life of a pure protein strand is hard to achieve. The purification process is tasking and is requisite of a lot of resources, which would render the efforts of creating the drug uneconomical.
Maintaining the integrity of this protein would be difficult, even with the extraction of pure strands. The shelf life would be drastically reduced and the instability of the same heightened. The processes of handling and transportation and delivery would need to be done with extreme caution. However, the strand would have the advantage of having neither chemical nor physical change.
Proteins have complex yet delicate structures characterized by a three dimensional look. When it comes to identifying conditions for their stability, it proves infinitely impossible. When developing the strands for commercial purposes, it is inevitable to have some physiochemical changes. Formulations development focuses on determining potential degradation pathway, assessing the significance of each and optimizing variables to reduce degradation products which are clinically significant.
Safety should always be a concern during the formulation development process. Proper maintenance of this strand will be key to maintain the stature of protein during testing, development, handling and transportation of substance. Appropriate Safety and storage mechanisms should be in place to ensure the viability is preserved.
There exists certain regulations on the testing and safety of personnel as well the samples. These guidelines also outline the necessary steps in collection and storage. They also extend to pre-clinical tests which should always be conducted before the formulation development process.
With these levels of advancement in the process of protein formulations development, regulatory framework limitations, as well as the challenges facing the medics and the process entirely, it is not easy to propagate such experiences to the real world to produce drugs for every need. There must be more research and development towards eliminating such barriers.
