GreenLight Biosciences and Samsung Biologics have completed the first commercial-scale engineering run under the companies’ mRNA production partnership: ahead of a COVID-19 vaccine booster clinical trial due to start later this year.
Germany has made a series of contracts with vaccine manufacturers to reserve mRNA manufacturing capacity in the country as part of its pandemic preparedness plans.
Having built up its mRNA expertise with its COVID-19 vaccine, Pfizer now sets out its strategy for the future. “Going forward, we plan to continue to capitalize on the leadership we have built in both mRNA R&D and manufacturing."
This month saw BioCina officially open its new biologics manufacturing facility in Adelaide, Australia, flagging it as the only TGA, EMA, Health Canada and US-FDA approved commercial facility of its kind in the country.
