Date:9/4/2012

LIONVILLE, Pa., Sept. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- West (NYSE: WST), a leading global manufacturer of components and systems for injectable drug delivery, today announced an agreement with Janssen Biotech, Inc. to collaborate on the development and manufacturing of an innovative self-injection product. The technology, developed by Janssen Biotech, has been specifically designed to meet the needs of patients by facilitating easier self-injection of pharmaceutical and biologic drug products. West will market the new injection technology under the name SelfDose™ (http://www.selfdose.com/).

West will be responsible for co-developing and handling the commercial scale-up and manufacture of the product, and will have the ability to offer the SelfDose injection technology as part of its expanding portfolio of self-injection technology platforms. The SelfDose injection technology complements West's ConfiDose® and SmartDose® injection technologies, and offers a solution for improved manual injection.

Providing the best solution to the challenges of packaging and delivering today's sensitive and complex biopharmaceutical products requires not only an effective drug container, but also a delivery system that can enable safe, effective and reliable delivery of the medication, especially when the administrator may be a patient. The SelfDose injection technology can help meet these challenges.
