Five Year Trouble Free Manufacturing For Large Pharma Company
Alkermes, through the merger with Elan Drug Technologies, to become Alkermes plc, has been developing and manufacturing commercial scale solid oral dosage products for over 40 years. The case study below demonstrates a large pharmaceutical contract manufacturing engagement in which there has been five years trouble free supply with OTIF (On-Time-In-Full) consistently >95%.
Process and product improvement initiatives were also delivered, which enabled significant capacity and yield improvements. These improvements resulted in significant cost savings for the partner.
In 2004, we were approached by a large international pharmaceutical company, to supply manufacturing services for a solid oral dosage product. This marked only the second time this large pharmaceutical company sought assistance (pre-launch) from a third party to manufacture a product on its behalf. The Alkermes Athlone Ireland site was chosen as the preferred site to fulfill the expected commercial demands of the product as the launch was being rolled out throughout Europe.
