mAbs Development and Manufacturing
Upstream. Downstream. Formulation.
Fed batch and intensified processes.
Process Development and Manufacturing
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are manufactured using a templated approach requiring robust, scalable, and regulatory compliant technologies to ensure success across all steps of the workflow from cell line development to formulation and final fill-finish. This template is also applied for biosimilars and with some modifications for antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), bispecifics, and other novel antibody formats.

While the overall bioprocessing workflow is well-established, many technological, analytical, and digital advances can be leveraged across upstream (USP) and downstream (DSP) operations to optimize productivity and gain efficiencies, but also to support closed, intensified, connected, and continuous biomanufacturing.
- Process monitoring, through process analytical technology (PAT), and intensification (e.g. perfusion) of the upstream suite are increasingly applied across different scales from the seed train to production and harvest.
- Productivity improvements in upstream processing are driving process intensification of the downstream workflow to keep pace with higher antibody titers in the feedstream.
- Single use closed processing is being adopted to improve contamination control and facility utilization.
- Biopharma 4.0 principles enabling automated decision making for data-driven intensified and continuous bioprocessing with modular, plug-and-play, connected and digitalized solutions.
- Manufacturing excellence and innovation can be achieved through collaborative exploration and learning. Explore novel modalities or test drive advanced techniques without disrupting your own operations through our global network of non-GMP facilities equipped with scientific experts and high-quality technologies.
Take full advantage of these opportunities to optimize and accelerate your process development and manufacturing. Stay abreast of latest industry trends and compliant with continuously evolving quality control, and regulatory requirements, upskill your workforce, and experience our integrated products, and services as we support the entire drug lifecycle – from preclinical and clinical development through commercial manufacturing of mAbs.
