摘要
LCZ696 is a novel treatment for patients suffering from heart failure that combines the two active pharmaceutical ingredients sacubitril and valsartan in a single chemical compound. While valsartan is an established drug substance, a new manufacturing process suitable for large-scale commercial production had to be developed for sacubitril. The use of chemocatalysis, biocatalysis, and flow chemistry as state-of-the-art technologies allowed to efficiently build up the structure of sacubitril and achieve the defined performance targets.
