The demand for Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) to treat diseases continues to grow, and, for many patients, ATMPs represent the last treatment option. As a result, it is crucial for manufacturers to produce and deliver these therapies in a timely manner while ensuring they meet all required safety and efficacy standards.
With the introduction of new manufacturing and testing methods, such as automation, decentralized models, and rapid testing; adopting a risk-based approach for testing and releasing ATMPs is no longer optional—it is essential.
This webinar will examine the potential risks involved in enabling just-in-time or real-time release of ATMPs. We will assess each stage of an example traditional autologous manufacturing process and identify potential risks and the factors that could allow for more efficient, timely release of these therapies.
While the webinar will focus on autologous manufacturing as an example, the insights shared can also be applied to other manufacturing methods.
The views and opinions expressed during the webinar are those of the presenter and do not reflect those of Adaptimmune or its affiliates.
