In-Use Stability of SB12 (Eculizumab, Soliris Biosimilar) Diluted in Saline and Dextrose Infusion Solution after an Extended Storage Period.

The infusion stability of SB12 after extended storage (5 ± 3 °C for up to 3 months, then 30 ± 2 °C/65 ± 5% RH for 72 h) was demonstrated for longer periods and at higher temperatures than what is stated in the EU and US labels of the reference product. The physicochemical properties, biological activity, and subvisible particles of in-use SB12 diluted in 0.9% NaCl and 0.45% NaCl were maintained under the described conditions and for all tested containers. However, instability was observed for the diluted SB12 in 5% dextrose. These results may reduce the workload of clinical staff and minimize drug waste from treatment delays without any loss in product quality and biological activity.
