Through partnerships, Terumo's CDMO business supports pharmaceutical companies in the design, manufacturing and regulatory approval processes of combination products.

通过合作,Terumo的CDMO业务支持制药公司在组合产品的设计、制造和监管审批流程。由于生物制药主要以注射剂形式给药,因此开发适合药物特性适用的容器和递送装置,以及无菌灌装技术的重要性日益增加。

These devices globally support pharmaceutical companies in resolving drug-related challenges and enhancing the value of pharmaceuticals..
