Drug Development – Developing Biologics for Respiratory Delivery

We bring you an informative on-demand drug development webinar, focusing on developing biologics for respiratory delivery. With drug discovery programmes increasingly focused on biological drug substances for both respiratory and systemic targets, the need to develop effective solutions for nasal and inhaled delivery is becoming increasingly vital for the industry. In this workshop, we will discuss the challenges and solutions alongside examples from real-world projects. Biologic and DNA-based modalities such as oligonucleotides, proteins, antibodies, and a range of other complex…

Benefits of Hollow Fiber Filter Cell Expansion

This webcast features: Stuart Gibb, PhD, Scientific Strategy Lead, Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies. Cell therapy requires cells to be healthy and active throughout the entire manufacturing process for optimal endpoint efficacy. A key part of this process is cell expansion. The Quantum Flex hollow-fiber filter technology provides an effective cell culture environment to provide ready access to fresh media, waste removal, and gas exchange over micrometer distances and works with suspension and adherent cell culture. In this environment, we…
