Title:

Considerations in using GMP grade Raw Materials when Manufacturing Cell Therapies and Other Biologics

Abstract:

Growth factors are a cornerstone in the intricate landscape of cell therapy manufacturing, playing multifaceted roles essential to produce biologics and other advanced therapeutic medicines. These biomolecules are intricately utilized throughout various manufacturing phases. As growth factors, they stimulate cell reproduction for desired therapeutic compounds as well as differentiate stem cells into cells of interest. After the initial adoption of several cell therapies, focus has become on ensuring manufacturing consistency, quality, and reliability in biopharmaceutical manufacturing. As such, quality control of cell therapies requires a multi-faceted approach for QC of not only the final therapeutic, but also raw materials that go into manufacturing cell therapies. Herein, we explore the different key methods and new assay validation procedures behind GMP product development to ensure a safe raw material for use in therapeutic manufacturing. We also highlight key facets of growth factor ‘grades’ that are associated with different stages of cell therapy manufacturing. As the biopharmaceutical industry continues to evolve and innovate, cell therapy manufacturers need to further emphasize the need for suppliers to ensure these tools are high-quality and provided at the required structure to continue to provide the foundational elements in pursuing improved global healthcare outcomes.
