Manufacturing

The companies have entered into a strategic partnership for the CMC development and manufacturing of Ansun’s biologics pipeline.

The companies will collaborate on the production of a novel anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunoadhesin in iBio’s FastPharming manufacturing system.

Rapid scale-up to billions of doses requires collaborative, all-out efforts by innovators, their manufacturing partners, and the entire supply chain.

The increased use of single-use bags in biologic manufacturing poses the risk of pinholes and other defects that cannot currently be tested for.

As technology matures, inefficiencies and process limitations in downstream process chromatography are improved.

Facility and equipment design are important, but the team and its experience matter most.

Amid high expectations for a COVID-19 vaccine, biopharma readies production capacity, weighs external pressures.

The facility offers office, production, sampling, and warehouse space and delivers products to all major global markets.

The collaboration includes an integrated program that encompasses formulation development, drug substances, and drug product manufacturing.

In the study, GigaGen presents a novel technology for producing a new class of drug, recombinant hyperimmunes, that may potentially generate new COVID-19 therapies.

CDMO Avid Bioservices will provide development and drug substance manufacturing for Oragenics’ novel COVID-19 vaccine candidate, Terra CoV-2.

EC finalizes agreement to purchase millions of doses of AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine.

Novavax has signed an agreement with the UK government for 60 million doses of a COVID-19 vaccine and a Phase III clinical trial.

The collaboration will increase the supply of the potential treatment to at least three and a half times the current capacity.

The company has made several moves in recent weeks to expand manufacturing capacity and cell line services.

SK bioscience will manufacture the vaccine antigen component for use in the final drug product at its vaccine facility in Andong L-house, South Korea.

The CDMO will offer capacity for manufacturing and distributing COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutics at its Grand Rapids, MI, fill/finish facility.

The companies have agreements to supply its mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine to Japan and Canada, pending regulatory approvals in those countries.

The European Medicines Agency recently approved two European Novartis sites in France and Switzerland for the commercial manufacturing of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell cell therapies.

The award will help a bioanalytics startup commercialize instrument technology for pharmaceutical antibody manufacturers.

The company is working to ensure broad global access to its COVID-19 vaccine candidate, following approval from regulators.

Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline have been selected to supply the US government and the European Union with millions of doses of their COVID-19 vaccine candidate.

The expansion will involve using the facilities’ existing central utilities and labs to supplement its small-scale and large-scale assets.

The therapy, indicated for a rare form of B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, was developed by Kite, a Gilead company, which will manufacture the therapy at its facility in El Segundo, CA.

New therapeutics modalities and the need for greater process efficiency are driving technology development.
