Navigating large-volume subcutaneous injections of biopharmaceuticals: a systematic review of clinical pipelines and approved products by Philip Green, Andreas Schneider, Jakob Lange

“…In contrast, non-cancer LVSCs (n = 107), which are typically self-administered monthly, show more significant dosing variability, with < 5.0 mL being the predominant volume range. Furthermore, the study identified a substantial clinical pipeline of potential LVSCs, many of which are being injected at increasingly lower dosing frequencies, suggesting significant future growth in this area. …”
