Integrated solutions for GLP-1 and peptides

The rapid growth of GLP-1 and peptide-based therapies is reshaping the pharmaceutical landscape, driven by increasing demand for treatments in diabetes, obesity, and other chronic conditions. As these biologic molecules move toward large-scale adoption, pharmaceutical companies need reliable partners able to support product development, industrialization, and commercial supply. Stevanato Group responds to this evolving market with integrated solutions for GLP-1 and peptides, combining primary packaging, drug delivery devices, assembly equipment, and analytical services to help pharma partners bring safe, scalable, and patient-centric therapies to market.

GLP-1 and peptide key challenges

For pharma companies aiming to satisfy the surging demand, the choice of delivery mechanism and delivery partner will have implications for supply chain capacity and resilience. Optimizing the route to market for a GLP-1 & Peptides device requires assessment and resolution of risk in areas including drug containment and device specification, as well as scaled-up production, assembly, fill and finish, and distribution.

Supply chain security
Significant demand puts pressure on global supply chains, making reliable production and supply continuity essential.
RTU primary packaging availability
Ready-to-Use primary packaging is critical to ensure clinical supplies and support commercial scale-up.
Risk mitigation from development to commercialization
Early assessment of drug containers, device specifications, and process requirements helps reduce risk across the product lifecycle.
Time to market
Speed is a key variable to seize market opportunities in the rapidly growing GLP-1 and peptide therapy space.
Drug product wastage
Minimizing drug product loss is essential, particularly for high-value biologic molecules.
Patient preferences
Pen injectors and autoinjectors - offering fixed or variable dosing and single or multiple injections - can address diverse patient preferences across geographies
