Abstract

Conventional manufacturing of protein biopharmaceuticals in centralized, large-scale single-product facilities is not well-suited to the agile production of drugs for small patient populations or individuals. Solutions for small-scale manufacturing are potentially more nimble, though previous systems are limited in both process reproducibility and product quality, owing to complicated means of protein expression and purification1–4. We describe an automated bench-top multi-product manufacturing system, called Integrated Scalable Cyto-Technology (InSCyT), for the end-to-end production of hundreds to thousands of doses of clinical-quality protein biologics in about three days. We also demonstrate that InSCyT can accelerate process development from sequence to purified drug in 12 weeks. We produced hGH, IFNα-2b, and G-CSF using highly similar processes on InSCyT and found that the purity and potency of these products is comparable to that of marketedreference products.
