Benefits of rapid CAR T manufacturing coming into focus

Plus: the Orphan Drug Act at 40, non-compete agreements, and the battle against misinformation

January 24, 2023 1:56 AM UTC

New manufacturing systems for CAR Ts aren’t just about speed, Executive Director for Biopharma Intelligence Lauren Martz said on the latest BioCentury This Week podcast. Martz and colleagues discuss the safety, efficacy and access benefits from rapid manufacturing platforms, and how these systems are set to change the way CAR T cells are delivered to patients in the near term.

BioCentury’s editors also analyze the state of incentives for orphan drug development as the Orphan Drug Act turns 40, how the FTC’s non-compete proposal could have unanticipated effects for biotech, and what solutions former FDA commissioners are proposing to battle misinformation about science.
