Topic: Supply chain optimization of a CAR-T therapy
When the first autologous CAR-T therapies made their market debut and secured commercial approval, they ushered in a slew of supply chain challenges. Manufacturers, treatment centers, and logistics providers grappled with these hurdles as they transitioned from initial shipments to a well-fortified global supply chain. A multitude of refinements were crucial in ensuring the process was reliable, stable, and cost-effective.
In this exciting presentation, Hans-Peter Scherzer, will explore how we responded to these challenges, including:
- The rigorous testing of the logistics process in real-world conditions
- How we put into use an intelligent shipping container with an extended qualification period How our equipment — including the outer shell of the shipping container — underwent enhancement based on user feedback
- How we continually adjusted regulatory and import processes to align with an ever-evolving regulatory framework
- How we developed and implemented a standardized system for communication flow and information exchange
- These measures have played a pivotal role in optimizing the delivery of CAR-T therapies on a global scale. Learn more about the event or register now
