Overview
Peptide manufacturing combines chemical synthesis, purification, and quality control under GMP conditions to produce pharmaceutical-grade products.
Manufacturing Approaches
- SPPS: Solid-phase peptide synthesis for shorter peptides
- Recombinant: Expression systems for larger peptides
- Hybrid: Combining synthetic and recombinant fragments
- Cell-free: Emerging in vitro translation methods
Scale Considerations
- Milligram to gram scale: Research and clinical supply
- Kilogram scale: Commercial launch quantities
- Continuous manufacturing: Emerging for cost reduction
Key Challenges
Impurity control, aggregation prevention, and maintaining consistency at scale remain critical manufacturing challenges.
