There are many different criteria for selecting a CDMO for your mRNA products. Arcturus’ Qian Ruan explains that a product’s stage of development and the specific needs inherent to that phase of development should be an important guide for companies today, especially given the expansion of the outsourcing sector and the wide range of capabilities.
Optimize mRNA development by learning key strategies for process refinement, critical component identification, and in-process analytics to enhance therapeutic production.
In this snippet, panelist Alex Aust (with the help of several live attendee commenters) tackles a particularly tricky question: Are our outsourcing partnerships producing high quality products today, and what are the most common root causes of batch failures?
Advancing RNA panelists Alex Aust, Qian Ruan, and Andy Geal share their thoughts on the ways in which outsourcing firms are approaching mRNA development today, as well as why outsourcing — as opposed to building a GMP facility — remains critical for (x)RNA biotechs today.
