Abstract

Chromatography has been a mainstay in the downstream processing and purification of biopharmaceutical medicines. Until now, this has largely involved the purification of protein products such as recombinant enzymes and monoclonal antibodies using large-scale column chromatography methods. The development of advanced therapeutic medicinal products (ATMP) is heralding in a new era of therapeutics for a range of indications. These new therapeutics use diverse substances ranging from live stem cell preparations to fragments of nucleic acid enclosed in a viral delivery system. With these new technologies come new challenges in their purification. In this chapter, the challenges faced in producing and purifying viral vectors capable of delivering life-altering gene therapy to the patient will be discussed. Current methods of chromatography capable of adaptation to meet these new challenges and advancements that may be needed to increase the purification capabilities for these new products will also be discussed.
