  • From "Up & Coming" To "Fully Formed": Maturing Our mRNA Outsourcing Partnerships

    In the first- of this three-part article series, several mRNA execs share their perspectives on the world of partnering in the RNA therapeutics space, assessing first the current state of CDMO partnerships and how they anticipate this critical supportive infrastructure will grow in the years ahead.

  • A "Hot Take" On mRNA Critical Process Parameters

    Bushwacking up a trailless mountain — as many of us may feel we’re doing today with the development of our mRNA therapeutics — is bound to be accompanied by its fair share of drama. These dynamics became increasingly apparent to me as I listened to a presentation unpacking the results of a BioPhorum benchmarking survey on CPPs for plasmid linearization, mRNA drug substance, and mRNA drug product production.

  • End-To-End mRNA DS And DP Manufacturing Processes

    This article demystifies the manufacture of mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles across unit operations for plasmid linearization, drug substance (DS) manufacture, and drug product (DP) manufacture.

  • Making Cancer Vaccines Is Complex; New Platform Guidance Could Help

    FDA's draft guidance on platforms is mostly for established, well-characterized modalities, but it also has implications for the emerging area of personalized medicine.

  • A "Hot Take" on Personalized mRNA Medicines

    mRNA’s small-scale and cell-free production are often-touted benefits in the personalized medicines sphere. But as I reviewed my notes from the BioPhorum ATMP member event, I found myself coming face to face with a difficult truth.

  • What Does FDA's Draft Platform Guidance Mean For CGT Companies?

    Details of the FDA's highly-anticipated platform technology program were released in the form of a draft guidance. Let's explore with a former FDA/CBER regulator.
