FORMULATION VIDEOS
The clinical promise of mRNA therapeutics and vaccines is clear, but compared to monoclonal antibodies or viral vectors, their novelty also brings new challenges to the manufacturing process.
It goes without saying that achieving cell-specific delivery is the most often discussed challenge facing the RNA-LNP field near- and long-term. However, as these three LNP experts share in this Advancing RNA Live clip, they have a whole list of additional R&D and CMC priorities we must address/accomplish to improve RNA-LNPs’ efficacy in personalized and gene therapy approaches.
In this segment, Russell Johnson, VP Formulation Research for RVAC Medicines, and Aalok Shah, Director of Formulation & Drug Delivery, Strand Therapeutics, discuss which ongoing industry efforts to improve LNPs and the RNA/mRNA cargo they're watching closely that could help the RNA industry move beyond hepatic delivery.
Explore the future of nucleic acid and nanoparticle-based therapeutics, including mRNA, CRISPR, and gene editing, as experts discuss innovative solutions for complex health challenges.
