West Introduces Daikyo Crystal Zenith® (CZ) Ready-to-Use Nested Vials in Tub at the International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy
CZ's Nested Vials are designed to meet the exterior dimensions of glass standard ISO 8362-1 and offer broad compatibility with various aseptic fill-finish equipment available in the market.
Designed to meet the exterior dimensions of glass standard ISO-8362-1, CZ nested vials are a demonstrated containment solution for cell and gene therapies, radiopharmaceuticals, and sensitive molecules. CZ's attributes, such as maintaining container closure integrity down to cryogenic temperatures, superior functional recovery of viral vectors, low particulate specification (2% USP <788>), break resistance, and low risk of chemical interaction, make it ideal for advanced therapies. CZ vials have demonstrated to be effective in safely storing gene therapy drugs and meeting the packaging demands from preclinical to commercial phases.
"West has been at the forefront of pharmaceutical packaging for over 100 years and is the market leader for containment solutions for cell and gene therapy treatments," said Cindy Reiss-Clark, Chief Commercial Officer at West. "This new offering expands the CZ platform to provide packaging configuration options for flexible filling solutions of sensitive molecules."
