Presenter: Aleš Štrancar
Event: Genetic Vaccine Development for Infectious Diseases Summit
Date: May 20, 2021
Abstract:
- Developments in gene therapy and threat of pandemics requests novel technologies to allow for efficient manufacturing of very large biomolecules and nanoparticles within short time.
- Convective Interaction Media with open channel structures resulting in no shear forces allows for fast and very efficient manufacturing of mRNA, pDNA, Adeno and other VLP based Covid vaccines.
- Ultra-sensitive DNA assay and fast in-process control using PATfix systems are introduced for production of safer Covid vaccines.

Event: ASGCT 24th Annual Meeting
Date: May 13, 2021
Abstract
Adeno associated virus (AAV) is the leading vector in the field of gene therapy because of its low toxicity, good overall safety profile, and ability to maintain stable expression for long periods of time. It is therefore crucial to develop a robust and high efficiency platform for its manufacturing.
Therapeutic applications of AAV-based gene therapy vectors require the process and product related impurities to be removed, as they represent serious safety threats as well as burden the economics of manufacturing.

Gene Therapy for Rare Disorders Europe 2020 (digital event)
Bullet points:
- Buffer optimisation and proper column ligand selection (CIM QA, CIM PrimaS or new CIM EF) allows for >90% full capsid production
- Introduction of Specimen allows for production columns checking before use
- Using ultracentrifuge with set of HPLC detectors allows for prompt orthogonal verification of the full capsid purity
