In recent years, the field of gene therapy has witnessed remarkable achievements and advancements. These breakthroughs have brought us even closer to unleashing the full potential of gene therapies. Catalent gene therapy experts discuss all aspects of gene therapy commercialization in depth.
In this fireside chat, George Buchman, Ph.D., Vice President, Pre-Clinical and Process Development, Catalent Cell & Gene Therapy and Thomas VanCott, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer, Combined Therapeutics, explore how a complete platform approach to fast-track AAVs can enhance quality and efficiency.
Learn how the right process, clonal HEK293 cell line, and range of off-the-shelf plasmids, along with qualified analytical methods supports a robust supply chain for the development and manufacture of AAV vectors, and the reduction of timelines to clinical evaluation.
In this webinar, experts will discuss the evolution of protocols associated with induced pluripotent stem cell generation and differentiation.
Summary: One significant challenge in the manufacturing of cell and gene therapies is the production of high quality plasmid DNA (pDNA). pDNA is a critical raw material for advanced therapeutics including mRNA and viral vector-based cell and gene therapies and vaccines.
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) enable availability of next-generation cell therapies for broader patient population at a faster turnaround time for a variety of disease areas. Catalent iPSC expert Boris Greber discusses the use of iPSCs as starting materials for cellular therapies, including the concept behind a universal platform for iPSC-based therapies.
