What you will discover...
In the last few years the gene and cell therapy field has boomed. The FDA has approved the first hand full of cell and gene therapy products and more than 800 active investigational drugs are in review.
Based on a recent Alliance of Regenerative Medicine report, this field has experienced a total 32% growth from 2014 with +36% in North America alone.
With increases in development and investment in this field, gene therapy companies will increasingly be looking at manufacturing and commercialization of their therapies.
Let’s take a closer look at the road to manufacturing and focus our discussion to addressing primary questions:
- what are key common pitfalls in scalability? ;
- what to look for in each unit operations of intended scale? ;
- what are the key critical factors to successful manufacturing? ;
- process design to address regulatory requirements.
