The global prefilled syringe market is estimated to reach $6.9bn by 2018. This figure is reflective of manufacturers striving to improve their technologies to meet the increasing number of biologic drugs reaching the market. The rising demand for prefilled syringes is driving the manufacturers to introduce improvements in technology and with the focus still on the safety for the user, innovation improvements for device development and ease of use for the patient are key areas to be addressed.
SMi’s leading prefilled syringes conference will focus on a number of hot talking points that will no doubt cause controversy and debate and on reflection open the floor to discussion in our breakout sessions. In addition, with a new competitive market just around the corner for biosimilars we look at this new session for 2015 in addition to the vision and benefit of lyophilisation in a prefilled syringe.

• What worked
(Existing Actions)
Pharma companies
sometimes use mono-layer
plastic containers to prevent
the below problems, but all
of them don’t have enough
oxygen barrier.
• What could’ve been
improved?
(Existing Problems for Glass
Container
- Breakage
- Heavy Weight
- Difficulty of disposal
- Protein Adsorption
- Inorganic Extractable, etc.
• Moving forward, what would
you have done differently?
(Future actions)
Some antioxidizing agent
might be used for injectable
drugs.

• What worked
(Existing solutions by suppliers)
Some supplies provide mono-
layer plastic containers
instead of glass, but all of
them don’t have enough
oxygen barrier.
• What could’ve been
improved?
- Oxygen Barrier
• Moving forward, what would
you have done differently?
(Our solutions)
- We developed an oxygen
absorbing polymer.
- We also developed 3 layers-
