What Oligo Manufacturing Risks Are We Underestimating?Earlier this year, I attended the OPT Congress, where I had the great fortune of meeting consultant Marc Lemaitre. I recently sat down with Lemaitre for a follow-up interview to gauge some of the evolutions he’s been watching within the CMC landscape for oligo development. Here, he digs into the shifts in quality he’s noted, pointing out some of the potential pitfalls we may encounter in our manufacturing that could stand to impact the overall quality of our oligos.

What Baby KJ Taught Us About mRNA COGSHere, in part 2 of this three-part series, I share a few details that came to light about the COGS behind Baby KJ’s therapy production. Obviously, we know why it’s important to keep these figures in mind as we move forward; but I particularly liked Strauss’ reminder that it’s our job to “think systematically about how we’re going to create a safety net of sustainable, accessible product that can be widely distributed at an affordable cost.”

![Sartorius CIM HIP Plasmid Process PackTM, CIMac pDNA]( "In-Process Control Of pDNA Production On CIMac™ pDNA Analytical Column")
As the demand for plasmid DNA (pDNA) based gene therapy and vaccines increases, large-scale, cost-effective, and reproducible pDNA production is required. The key to success is a real-time in-process control method that ensures a high percentage of supercoiled pDNA in the final product. Read how the CIMac™ pDNA Analytical Column allows the monitoring of degradation products (open circular and linear pDNA), the removal of impurities (RNA), and ensures that each production step yields the amount of supercoiled pDNA anticipated.
