Biologics Formulations

Roquette provides integrated solutions designed to address key challenges in biologics formulation, helping scientists and manufacturers ensure product stability, efficacy, and compliance. Each excipient plays a critical role in overcoming formulation and process hurdles commonly encountered with protein-based drug products. 

Optimize Biologics Formulations with Roquette’s Advanced Excipients 

Roquette offers a versatile portfolio of GMP, compendia-grade excipients developed to ensure the stability, safety, and performance of final biopharmaceutical formulations. Whether protecting sensitive biologics from degradation or maintaining isotonicity and integrity during processing, Roquette’s excipients for biologics formulation deliver consistent reliability for injectable and lyophilized formats. 

With proven solutions such as KLEPTOSE® HPB Biopharma and HP Biopharma hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin low endotoxin grades, and NEOSORB® sorbitol, PEARLITOL® mannitol, and LYCADEX® dextrose monohydrate Biopharma grades, Roquette supports formulation scientists in achieving robust stability, process compatibility, and global regulatory confidence. 

Addressing Key Challenges in Biologics Formulation

 

Comprehensive Stabilization of Biologics 

Roquette’s excipients deliver broad protection against thermal, light/UV, agitation, and formulation stress, helping preserve the three-dimensional structure of sensitive biomolecules. By maintaining stability under various process and storage conditions, these excipients help extend shelf life and support reproducibility in biopharmaceutical production. 

Mitigating Aggregation and Instability

Protein aggregation and particle formation remain key challenges in biologics formulation. KLEPTOSE® HPB and HP hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin stabilizers mitigate these effects by reducing molecular interactions that lead to instability. Combined with polyol-based stabilizers such as sorbitol and mannitol, Roquette’s portfolio helps maintain protein solubility and activity throughout the formulation process. 

Supporting Lyophilized and Injectable Formats

Formulating for lyophilized and injectable biologics requires a precise balance of bulking, isotonicity, and cryoprotection. Sorbitol, mannitol, and dextrose monohydrate Biopharma grades help protect biologics during freezing, drying, and reconstitution. These excipients enable consistent cake structure, rapid dissolution, and easy administration, ensuring product reliability from manufacturing through final use. 

Regulatory Confidence and Global Compliance 

All Roquette biopharma-grade excipients are produced under good manufacturing practice (GMP) conditions and listed in major global pharmacopeias, providing confidence for regulatory submissions worldwide. Each material is fully traceable and supported by comprehensive technical and quality documentation, ensuring regulatory alignment and market readiness across international territories.
