Current and future issues in the manufacturing and development of monoclonal antibodies

Kozlowski, Steven, Swann, Patrick·2006·Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews

Abstract

Despite a slow beginning, monoclonal antibodies have had many successes over the past decade. It is important that these successes continue, bringing more products for more indications to market. Although manufacturing is not the most common cause of product failure, product quality issues can delay antibody development. Manufacturing has depended on the triad of process validation, process control and product testing. Applying product knowledge proactively to manufacturing (quality by design) may allow greater flexibility and maintain or improve product quality. An integrated approach to biological characterization is an important aspect of product knowledge. Greater product knowledge also facilitates development in other disciplines. Independent of manufacturing strategy, there are a number of regulatory hurdles in initial and ongoing antibody development. These are described to help prevent unnecessary delays.

  • Current best practice relies on three pillars: selection of appropriate starting and raw materials with a low risk of adventitious virus; testing of cell banks and in-process materials to ensure they are free from detectable viruses; and incorporation of steps to remove and inactivate potential undetected adventitious and endogenous viral contaminants during purification.

    “The lessons of the past have led to the current best practice, which relies on three pillars: the selection of appropriate starting and raw materials with a low risk of containing adventitious virus; testing of cell banks and in process materials to ensure they are free from detectable viruses; and finally, the incorporation of steps to remove and inactivate potential undetected adventitious and”
  • Virus-risk mitigation for biopharmaceutical manufacturing uses three complementary approaches: preventing virus entry by selecting low-risk starting and raw materials and utilizing manufacturing controls; testing of in-process materials to ensure they are free of virus and enable lot rejection; and clearance of virus by inactivation and/or removal from the product.

    “As noted above, virus-risk mitigation for biopharmaceutical manufacturing uses three complementary approaches: 1) preventing virus entry by selecting low risk starting and raw materials and utilizing manufacturing controls, 2) testing of in process materials to ensure they are free of virus and enable lot rejection and 3) clearance of virus (inactivation and/or removal) from the product 9,14 .”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
