The criticality and specialized handling needed for each shipment requires seamless execution of a vein-to-vein supply chain throughout the journey, and the manufacturers of these complex therapies must also consider the reliability, quality and cost effectiveness of any solution.

To control and direct the power of a patient’s immune system in order to fight disease is both ground-breaking as well as complicated. While the success of cell and gene therapy strives to become more mainstream and is increasingly the focus of researchers, the longer-term potential requires exploration. Researchers and manufacturers must translate the progress of cell and gene trials into broader programs targeting larger populations. Scalability and manufacturability are two challenges that the industry faces.
Nevertheless, before commercialization, cell and gene therapies encounter many other challenges as they progress towards their goal. The criticality and specialized handling needed for each shipment requires seamless execution of a vein-to-vein supply chain throughout the journey, and the manufacturers of these complex therapies must also consider the reliability, quality and cost effectiveness of any solution.
Join Darren Dasburg, Global Head of Cell Gene Services, Marken and Jeff Stone, Senior Director, Global Program Management, Marken in a live webinar on Thursday, March 19, 2020 at 9am EDT (1pm GMT).
