Structural complexity of biological drug products presents an analytical challenge in terms of early detection of aggregation and/or degradation. In the present study, Raman and Raman optical activity (ROA) were evaluated for their sensitivity to detect heat-induced molecular instability in an Immunoglobulin G4 subclass therapeutic monoclonal antibody present in its formulation matrix. The therapeutic antibody was subjected to heat stress at 50 degrees C and was analyzed at various time points up to 1month. The current results suggest that Raman and ROA are sensitive to early-stage detection of heat-induced instability of the antibody, in which significant changes could be observed at 1week of stress. ROA could provide early detection of the subtle differences at the tertiary structure level in a heat-stressed monoclonal antibody and Raman/ROA spectra could provide early detection in secondary structural changes as well.
