Small molecule manufacturing covers two distinct stages: active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) synthesis and drug product (DP) formulation. API work involves multi-step chemical synthesis, from kilo-lab through pilot-plant to commercial scale. Drug product work transforms the API into tablets, capsules, injectables, or other dosage forms.
Process chemistry is where projects succeed or fail. Look for CDMOs with strong route scouting and process optimization capabilities. A good CDMO can improve yields by 20-40% during scale-up, saving months of development time. Crystallization expertise is particularly critical for controlling polymorphic form and particle size distribution.
How does your CDMO handle potent compounds? Many oncology and hormonal APIs require OEB4 or OEB5 containment. Not every small molecule CDMO has the engineering controls for sub-microgram exposure limits. Verify containment capabilities early -- retrofitting is expensive and slow.
