Biosimilar Drug Development and cGMP Support from Cell Line Engineering through Clinical Supply Packaged with our Analytical Solutions Support
Rising healthcare costs will continue to drive the demand for affordable biosimilar therapeutics. As the regulatory frameworks globally are complex, it is increasingly important for contract organizations to provide the expertise regarding the technology and processes essential for optimized biosimilar development.
The presentation will discuss the current scientific challenges developing biosimilars with special emphasis in the importance of stable, high performance cell lines, clone selection and process development and how to leverage expertise in large molecule analytical services to generate highly similar biosimilar molecules.
The webinar will be split into two sections, the first focusing on cell line engineering through utilization of the GPEx® technology platform, and an example applying iterative analytics to yield a clone and a manufacturing process yielding a highly similar biosimilar protein.
The second part of the webinar will discuss the application of physicochemical, structural and functional (bioassay & ELISA) strategies, among others, to the full biosimilarity characterization lot comparability testing as well as subsequent lot release and stability testing, of biosimilar therapeutics.
For anyone involved with the development, manufacture and/or release of biosimilar therapeutics, this webinar will provide vital insights as to how we may be able to work with you in your efforts to develop and produce biosimilar therapeutics, making the challenges more predictable, robust and efficient.
