TECHNOLOGY TRENDS IN THE

DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIAL-

SCALE MANUFACTURING OF CELL AND

GENE THERAPIES

he cell and gene therapy industry has now exceeded 1000 clinical

trials and annual global financing increased 40% YOY to over $10B

(ARM 2018 Q3 Report). As the industry continues its monumental ex-

pansion, developers much find newmethods to scale their supply chains

to control costs, speed and reproducibility. Meanwhile new regulations

and standards are increasing pressure for more controlled processes, val-

idation and risk mitigation. Raw material documentation, supply chain

redundancy and closed manufacturing systems are key aspects to en-

abling the next wave of therapies. This talk will showcase some of the

latest trends in the industry, emerging technologies and best practices

that start early in development to enable robust, sustainable operations

and commercial success.
