Single-use systems have been steadily climbing toward the top of the tools utilized by biomanufacturers for the commercial-scale production of critical therapeutic products. However, COVID-19 created an inflection point for this technology, generating an even greater demand that will shape the market for many years. Yet, with considerable demand comes the need to focus on the key aspects driving growth while discovering the appropriate solutions to the challenges that invariably arise when technologies are being developed and utilized rapidly.
This is our third and final episode of GENcast, where Dr. Ger Brophy, the Executive Vice President of Biopharma Production at Avantor, joins me. We sat down to discuss several essential facets of single-use systems and some ways to help manage risk and decrease the intricacies most often associated with single-use supply chains. Make sure you check out episode one and episode two for more in-depth discussions with Dr. Brophy.

The demand for safe and efficacious biologics has accelerated exponentially in the past several years due to the tremendous success of some of the initial therapeutic offerings in this space. Yet, along with this increased demand comes the need for innovative solutions to improve downstream production workflows. For example, eliminating purification bottlenecks and improving overall yields from chromatography steps can significantly impact the final product’s cost.
In this second episode of GENcast with Executive Vice President of Biopharma Production at Avantor, Dr. Ger Brophy, we dive into some of the challenges biomanufacturers face during downstream purification and how addressing the traditional thinking surrounding chromatography resins, and buffers can be highly advantageous and immensely cost-effective.

The success and applications of cell and gene therapies are seemingly limitless, and economic forecasts project a compound annual growth rate of almost 40% over the next eight years. This rapid expansion is a double edge sword for biomanufacturers of cell and gene therapy products. On the one hand, the tremendous growth is excellent for business. Yet, on the flip side, biomanufacturers are faced with solving the numerous challenges of scaling-up production workflows: from raw material sourcing to supply chain management to adopting new and innovative production modalities. Having a trusted global partner that can help organizations navigate the tumultuous bioprocessing waters of cell and gene therapy production is advantageous and often the key to continued success in the space.
In this GENcast, we sit down with the Executive Vice President of Biopharma Production at Avantor, Dr. Ger Brophy, to discuss some of the precautions and improvements for cell and gene therapies and how manufacturers can address many of the challenges they face. Take a listen!

The drug discovery and development process can be an arduous endeavor. Manufacturers spend considerable resources and money chasing down potential candidate molecules to create a potential new therapeutic—often resulting in abandoning the candidate in the very later stages of development due to minor factors that might have been overlooked at the onset of the discovery process. Thankfully, there have always been those investigators who sought to merge the fields of mathematics and biology while taking advantage of advanced computing algorithms to help inform and de-risk drug discovery decisions and streamline the development pipeline. This mechanistic modeling approach is helping to transform drug R&D projects by giving pharma and biotech companies the vital information they need to make the critical decisions in a drug’s path toward clinical success.
In this GENcast, we sat down with an expert in mechanistic modeling to discuss the specific of this approach and how companies are employing the technology successfully. Jump into the discussion and take a listen!
