Expert comparator product testing
Ensuring your product meets market standards
Establishing the comparative performance of a drug product is a pivotal step in its development journey. Whether you’re entering a competitive therapeutic class or seeking to improve on an existing treatment, proving that your product meets or exceeds the performance of alternatives already available on the market is critical to regulatory approval, clinical success, and patient trust. But performing comparative assessments like these is far from straightforward. From ensuring analytical equivalence and bioavailability to interpreting complex datasets, comparator product testing demands a combination of technical precision and strategic insight.
The Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing (BPT) network of laboratories provides robust comparator product testing for new and existing pharmaceutical products in terms of quality, safety, and efficacy.
We’ve successfully tested more than 100 marketed drugs across various therapeutic areas, from anti-inflammatories and antidepressants to antiretrovirals and metabolic disorder treatments.
