4SC AG, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company partnered with Patheon, by Thermo Fisher Scientific, whose experienced team helped them overcome active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturing hurdles, leading to a path toward commercial success.
US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements specify that packaging and distribution systems must protect the agent from contamination and damage. In distributing cryogenically frozen advanced therapies, this includes protection from temperature shock.
Global regulatory standards for clinical trials are, simply put, complex. In this case study, learn how one company worked with its partner to overcome the challenge of a protocol based in the US, an investigational medical product (IMP) approved in the EU, and varying QP (qualified person) rules from country to country, to conduct their clinical trial in Isreal.
There is an increased risk of viral contamination in settings where ATMPs are prepared, making it critical to understand the contamination risks and the solutions available to control them.
With our team of packaging experts and extensive cold chain capabilities, this case study discusses the creation a custom packaging and distribution solution to meet this client’s unique needs. Through our partnership, the product was successfully packaged in sufficient quantity and on time for the Phase I trial.
Protein Sciences learned several valuable lessons during the development and final regulatory approval of its recombinant hemagglutinin (rHA) influenza vaccine, Flublok.
Biopharmaceuticals tend to be highly unstable. A pilot formulation study at the early drug substance development stage can make things considerably easier at the manufacturing stage, according to Yunsong (Frank) Li, director of process development at Catalent Biologics, in this Pharmaceutical Technology interview.
Polysorbate-80 (PS-80) is a surfactant commonly used as an excipient to improve API stability. However, degradation of PS-80 can lead to decreased drug potency or stability, and there is inconsistency in the quality and composition of PS-80 provided by different vendors.
Current state-of-the-art continuous manufacturing technologies are being developed and implemented to manufacture a wide variety of products including monoclonal antibodies, recombinant proteins, and other biological modalities. Though upstream fed batch and perfusion bioreactors unit processes are relatively mature, downstream process unit operations are less mature. In this case study, Catalent compared the productivity of purifications running in batch versus continuous mode.
While the potential for advanced therapies to provide curative treatments to patients around the world is very exciting, the pricing strategies and reimbursement models to support this innovation are quite complicated. In this article, I’ll explore the cost vs. price paradigm, through a supply chain lens, highlighting hidden costs and their impact on reimbursement potential.
Organizations need to manage chemicals safely from receipt to disposal along the entire lab-to-plant value chain, ensuring Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) compliance across the enterprise.
This XDR single-use bioreactor is sized for the benchtop, yet allows smooth scale-up to full production.
