Facility Considerations When Retrofitting Legacy Sites For ADCs
Antibody-drug conjugate manufacturing requires, among other things, unidirectional flow and air locks for people and materials. Facilities often lack these attributes.
-
In Vivo's Biggest Threat — Comparison To Old Models
In vivo CAR-T is not simply ex vivo without a manufacturing step. It is a different modality that relies on biological systems to regulate outcomes.
-
Managing Supply Chain Risk In Scale-Up And Multisite Trials
Scaling trials across sites can lock in supply risk early. Learn how biologic variability, long lead times, and multisite complexity threaten trials and how to spot warning signs fast.
-
The 5-Layer Fix For AI Failure In Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
The promise of AI is colliding with the harsh reality of data chaos in pharma manufacturing. This article explores why most AI investments fail, and a 5-layer solution.
-
Why Use Total Organic Carbon Analysis For Cleaning Validation?
Total organic carbon analysis is probably the most “fit for use” analytical method to validate cleaning processes, particularly within a science- and risk-based approach.
