Cell culture media is a foundational component of any biotherapeutic manufacturing workflow, crucial for maintaining cellular health and viability, maximizing titers, and supporting high product quality. As such, building a biotherapeutic manufacturing process with an optimized basal medium and feed system is vital to achieving optimal results and accelerating the speed-to-market of your product.
However, the process of finding the most suitable basal medium and supplementation
strategy can be challenging, as it requires balancing many key cell culture process
variables to achieve specific technical goals within budget and time constraints.
This guide will provide an insight into each development stage and offer best
practices to help you achieve your project goals on time and within budget.
ImvivaBio’s off-the-shelf CD19/BCMA CAR-T cell therapy CTA313 kept 88% of evaluable patients with refractory lupus in DORIS remission at Month 12, according to longer-term phase 1 data presented at ACR Convergence 2026.
Beam’s base-edited cell therapy met its primary endpoint in the BEACON trial, and a U.S. biologics license application is planned as early as year-end.
Full phase 3 OASIZ-301 results show both dosing regimens of Amgen’s CD40L antagonist fusion protein dazodalibep reduced systemic disease activity in Sjögren’s disease at Week 48. The every-four-weeks dose also improved patient-reported dryness.
FDA grants RMAT and Fast Track designations to AbelZeta’s CD20/CD19 bispecific CAR-T prizlon-cel in relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma, Larimar Therapeutics completes a BLA seeking accelerated approval of nomlabofusp for Friedreich’s ataxia, and Merck’s GLP-1/glucagon receptor agonist efinopegdutide meets its primary endpoint in a phase 2b MASH trial.
