The goal of this meeting is to discuss these issues with a primary focus on:

Challenges associated with large volume injections that either help reduce the number of injections, or actually change the route of administration from IV to SC.
Identification of trends and approaches in manufacturing such as the need for smaller batches, different containers and greater flexibility in fill & finish technologies.
Acquiring knowledge about the most up-to-date approaches related to “Quality” including container/ drug interaction, zero particles, avoidance of stopper movement during air shipment, and much more.

Dear Colleagues,

We continually strive to develop devices that improve upon current standards of safety, provide ease of administration, and offer convenience for the end user. Be it a prefilled-syringe, pen, or auto-injector the industry trend is toward fill& finish of smaller batches and larger volumes that meet the ever-increasing quality requirements that support patient safety.
