It is important to understand critical aspects of the CMO's capabilities. Only by auditing certain key areas can the sponsor be assured of the quality of the materials produced.
Contract manufacturers must plan for increased analytical resources in development and quality control.
The Center for Molecular Immunology (Havana, Cuba) has been working on a novel cancer immunotherapy targeting the epidermal growth factor (EGF). The vaccine is composed of a chemical conjugate of EGF and a carrier protein (rP64k), designed to trigger an anti-EGF antibody response. The results of studies of molecular characterization, immunogenic activity, and clinical data are presented here.
When you don't know the answer to a question, ask an expert. If the question is really big, ask more experts. If you have a collection of difficult questions, run a poll of many experts. That, in effect, was the impetus for Eden Biodesign to survey 670 BioPharm International subscribers with questions as to what will be the development mechanism to achieve safe, effective, and cheap new medicines.

Gene fusion tags can improve the yield and solubility of many recombinant proteins. This article discusses the most popular fusion tags and the proteases used to remove them, with special reference to recently introduced technologies.
The disadvantages of the traditional vaccine regime (prime plus boost) have spurred the development of single-shot vaccines. This article describes the development and manufacture of a prototype single-shot vaccine that uses microspheres made from cross-linked modified dextran polymers for controlled release of the antigen.
This article describes a quick method for evaluating lifecycle costs for single-use systems against their more conventional stainless-steel counterparts.
Vaccine process development is complex, and so are the documents required before clinical trials begin. Technical writers and editors can effectively coordinate the timely authoring, reviewing, and auditing of regulatory documents, minimizing filing delays.
Understanding the impact on process performance.
Process-modeling tools can ensure smooth tech transfer.
Can disposables reduce your facility's environmental footprint? We have compared the environmental footprint of a traditional biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility using fixed-in-place stainless steel equipment, and a facility implementing disposable technologies for cell culture, solution mixing and hold, product hold, and liquid transfer.
An alternative approach to traditional Protein A schemes is comparable in overall efficiency, product recovery, and quality.
