With the rapid development of cell therapy, its application value in the fields of cancer, blood diseases, cardiovascular diseases, etc. has become increasingly prominent. However, cell therapy drugs have extremely stringent requirements for packaging, and traditional packaging materials often cannot meet their special needs. Cyclic olefin polymer (COP) vials have become an ideal packaging choice for cell therapy drugs due to their unique performance advantages.

Challenges of cell therapy drugs to packaging
Cell therapy drugs usually contain protein components, which are easily adsorbed on the packaging surface, resulting in drug waste and inaccurate dosage. In addition, cell drugs need to be stored in ultra-low temperature environments (such as liquid nitrogen environments) to maintain drug activity. Therefore, packaging materials must meet the following two core requirements:
1. Low protein adsorption: avoid drug waste and ensure accurate dosage;
2. Excellent low temperature resistance: maintain stability in ultra-low temperature environments to ensure drug activity.
How do COP vials meet the needs of cell therapy drugs?
1. Low protein adsorption: COP vials have extremely low protein adsorption characteristics, which can effectively prevent drug components from being adsorbed on the packaging surface, ensuring the accuracy of drug dosage and the stability of efficacy. This feature makes it an ideal choice for protein drugs and cell therapy drugs.
2. Excellent low temperature resistance: COP vials can still maintain excellent physical and chemical stability in ultra-low temperature environments, and can withstand the extreme conditions of liquid nitrogen storage, ensuring that the activity of cell therapy drugs is not affected during storage and transportation.
Application of COP vials in the field of cell therapy
At present, COP vials have been widely used in the packaging of a variety of high-value cell therapy drugs, including:
Immune cell therapy drugs: such as CAR-T cell therapy drugs;
Stem cell therapy drugs: used to repair tissue and organ damage;
Gene therapy drugs: such as drugs used to treat genetic diseases.
Strict quality inspection to ensure drug safety
The production process of COP vials follows strict quality inspection standards, including:
Appearance inspection: transparency, surface finish, no blisters, oil stains, etc.;
Performance inspection: sealing, absorbance, acidity and alkalinity, total organic carbon, etc.;
Biocompatibility inspection: cytotoxicity, skin sensitization, hemolysis, etc.
These inspection items ensure the stability and safety of COP vials during drug storage and transportation, and provide a reliable packaging solution for cell therapy drugs.
COP vials are an ideal choice for cell therapy drug packaging due to their low protein adsorption and low temperature resistance. They can not only meet the special needs of cell therapy drugs, but also provide pharmaceutical companies with safe and reliable packaging solutions, helping the rapid development of the cell therapy field.
