Webinar: A Novel Cell Selective Lentiviral Platform for in vivo CAR-T Engineering

Targeted lentiviral vectors are reshaping CAR-T manufacturing by enabling selective gene delivery to defined T-cell populations with greater speed and less complexity. In this webinar, Miltenyi Biotec explores a novel PV-pseudotyped LVV platform that supports efficient ex vivo and in vivo CAR-T generation, robust tumor cell depletion, and a promising path toward safer, scalable, and more accessible immunotherapies. Click here to learn more.

FOCUS ON MANUFACTURING

Mastering Biotech's Insourcing/Outsourcing Trade-Offs

Here's a case for the biotech hybrid model, one that relies on a crack team of internal core talent complemented by broad reliance on external vendors. Consider how to optimize resources to drive your drug development program toward success.

Key Considerations When Transitioning Research To GMP Production

Navigate the move from flexible research to rigid manufacturing protocols. Explore how historical safety standards and strict regulations protect patients and build trust.

Next-Generation CRISPR Approaches

By providing essential components like nucleases, gRNAs, and HDR templates, a reliable CDMO facilitates a seamless transition from discovery research to clinical trials and beyond.

AI And Digital Maturity In Contract Development And Manufacturing

Learn how CDMOs are navigating digital maturity, where AI is driving real operational gains, and why sponsor expectations are accelerating the push toward digital readiness.

Built‑In Quality For Audit‑Ready Manufacturing

Pre-approval success depends on integrating traceability and contamination control into daily workflows. Avoid regulatory delays by ensuring your manufacturing process is inherently compliant.

Rapid Path To FDA Approval For Gene Replacement Therapy

See how one family managed to get an investigational gene replacement therapy manufactured and approved by the FDA so their daughter could be dosed just 14 months from her diagnosis.

Enhancing Stability With Frozen Starting Materials

Fresh starting materials introduce variability and fragility, but frozen inputs create predictable, scalable workflows that improve consistency and support smoother early‑phase development.

A CRDO Method To Faster Biologic Development

A science‑driven CRDO model accelerates biologic development by combining expert formulation, analytics, and partnerships to reduce risk and improve outcomes. Consider the benefits of a collaborative approach.
