The vaccine industry has undergone a revolution in technology resulting in a variety of novel therapeutic platforms that accelerate development and significantly reduce the duration of process optimization and scale-up. However, challenges in maintaining efficacy and improving process robustness remain. In this presentation, we present a comparison of these novel technologies, discuss key considerations for manufacturing, and share selected case studies for platforms such as virus-like-particles, viral vectors, plasmid DNA, and mRNA platforms.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- Benefits of platform technologies in vaccine development
- Key considerations when deciding between platforms
- Vaccine pipeline analysis and selected case studies
