Solid-State Delivery and Stabilization of Therapeutic Proteins Using Freeze-Drying Technology

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Protein-based therapeutics, including monoclonal antibodies, cytokines, enzymes, and vaccines, have transformed the landscape of modern medicine, addressing previously untreatable diseases with high specificity and minimal off-target effects. Biologics constitute a rapidly expanding segment within the pharmaceutical market, propelled by progress in the fields of genetic engineering, engineered DNA technologies, and hybridoma approaches. Among the blockbuster protein therapies are adalimumab (Humira[[sup]]®[[/sup]]) for autoimmune illnesses and trastuzumab (Herceptin[[sup]]®[[/sup]]) for breast cancer (Walsh 2014; Strohl 2018).
