Description
Lanreotide Acetate Product Overview
Lanreotide is a cyclic octapeptide analogue of the natural hormone somatostatin. As the acetate salt, it is a white to off-white amorphous powder. In water, the acetate salt self-assembles into nanotubes at high concentration, which allows it to form a semi-solid depot without added polymers.
Pharmaceutical companies use it in prefilled syringes for deep subcutaneous depot injections given every few weeks, in endocrinology and oncology. This self-assembly makes the API’s physical properties, acetate content and peptide content particularly important for consistent release.
Because lanreotide is injected, bacterial endotoxins must meet strict limits. Zyntex supplies it from qualified peptide API producers, only to licensed pharmaceutical companies. Related peptide APIs in our range include Goserelin and Ganirelix.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does it form a depot without polymers?
At high concentration in water, the acetate salt self-assembles into nanotubes, forming a gel that releases the peptide slowly after injection.
Who can purchase this API?
It is supplied only to pharmaceutical companies holding the licenses required for API purchase and use in their country.
How can I get a price and documents?
Prices depend on quantity, packaging and destination. Contact us with your required volume to receive a quotation together with the CoA and SDS.
