Webinar | Challenges of developing ADA and concentration (PK or PD) assays for lysosomal transgene enzymes

博客 - One of the biggest challenges faced by the bioanalytical sector is the lack of a true reference material. As a result, in most assays, an alternative commercially available therapeutic (for example, an enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) product) can be used as a surrogate for the transgene enzyme. This webinar discusses approaches taken in order to monitor the concentration of the expressed transgene product and any associated immunogenicity.

How To Build a Comprehensive Response to Client Needs as a CRO

博客 - As a CRO, meeting client expectations can be an ongoing challenge. What can organisations do to make sure their research is as effective and efficient as possible? In the Autumn 2022 issue of European Pharmaceutical Contractor magazine, the leadership team from Alliance Pharma reviews what CRO organisations can do to make sure their research is as effective and efficient as possible while meeting the ongoing challenge of their customer's expectations.

Challenges of developing an ADA assay for bispecific antibody therapeutics and ADA characterisation

博客 - Bispecifics (Bs) are biopharmaceutical products that bind to two different targets (epitopes). These are mainly two types: IgG-like (antibodies Abs) and non-IgG-like which include Bites (bispecific T-cell engager) and DARTs (Dual-affinity Re-targeting Antibody).

Development and validation of an immunogenicity assay for detection of anti-AAV antibodies

博客 - Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) are small viruses that infect humans and some other primate species. The AAV is transformed from a naturally occurring virus into a delivery mechanism for gene therapy.

A method to measure anti-vaccine antibodies

博客 - An antibody assay was required to detect and quantify IgGs produced against a vaccine. This was required to measure the efficacy and reliability of the vaccine.

AMS Sandwich Celebrates 10th Anniversary

博客 - Analytical and Materials Science (AMS) Sandwich Team recently celebrated their 10th Anniversary in an event marking Discovery Park’s 10th Anniversary. AMS Sandwich was founded in 2012 at Discovery Park – Kent’s largest science and innovation park situated just outside of the historic town of Sandwich. The team, initially comprising a few members, was formed with the aim of plugging a gap identified in the ‘Materials Science’ area of pharmaceutical development.

The next chapter in Nitrosamine Testing

博客 - Based on industry feedback following the recent requirements regarding risk assessments of marketed products, a significant amount of small molecule related APIs, possibly 30%+, have been shown to have the potential to form active related nitrosamines

Presentation Slides - The Importance of Good Experimental Design for Extractable and Leachable Studies

博客 - AMS Science Lead Mike Ludlow explains the importance of good experimental design for extractable and leachable studies.
