About This Meeting

Abstract:

Viral vectors are increasingly being used in clinical trials for gene therapy applications. Manufacturing of safe and efficacious clinical-grade virus relies on a scalable and cost-effective production process.  This presentation will cover resins and techniques used in the development of processes that can be used in the manufacturing of safe and efficacious clinical-grade virus.  We will cover novel affinity and ion exchange-based purification steps and step alternatives, including core bead technology and membrane formats.
