Carole Delauney warns that sterile injectable manufacturing “is not just fill-finish”—a misconception that can cost biotech companies millions and even derail entire drug development programs. She notes, “This is unfortunately not commonly recognized in the industry, but it is a very important topic.”
Carole Delauney, a sterile injectable manufacturing expert with nearly two decades of technical expertise in contract manufacturing, has worked exclusively in sterile fill-finish since 2008. Her background in sales and business development has positioned her as what she calls a “solution provider” for complex manufacturing challenges.
In a recent podcast, Carole explains why understanding sterile injectable complexity is crucial for CDMOs and biotech companies navigating a market projected to grow from $14.4 billion in 2024 to $33.7 billion by 2035 (Source: Roots Analysis). Her insights reveal critical best practices for avoiding costly mistakes and building successful manufacturing partnerships.
