Evonik Industries, a German based global leader in specialty chemicals, offers the strength and breadth that comes with working with one of the world’s largest specialty chemical companies. The company covers a large part of the pharmaceutical value chain, from manufacturing of API’s (including HPAPI) and functional excipients to development of drug formulations and specialty manufacturing of drug products.
Evonik’s strong global research laboratory network supports pharmaceutical companies in developing better manufacturing routes for their high value APIs. The company ensures their successful and economic scale-up and secure supply through clinical trials all the way to commercial launch and beyond. The same companies are then helped to develop better and more efficient formulations with advanced drug delivery technologies.
With the acquisition of Birmingham Laboratories (USA), Evonik is able to offer full development and manufacturing services in the area of injectable controlled release formulations. Evonik’s Eudragit and Resomer functional polymer platforms further impart controlled release functionality to sophisticated oral and parenteral dosage forms.
The broad competencies in APIs and drug delivery systems combine to support clients in new ways, including the design and production of antibody drug conjugates (ADCs). This new type of targeted therapy binds an antibody directly to, for example, specific markers at the surface of cancer cells. The ADC is then internalized within the cancer cell and the active ingredient released exactly where it is needed, thus reducing side effects and widening the therapeutic window.
