Contract development and manufacturing organisations (CDMOs) KBI Biopharma and Argonaut Manufacturing Services have formed a strategic partnership to provide biopharmaceutical clients with comprehensive solutions from drug substance to drug product manufacturing.
The collaboration is set to streamline development and cGMP [current good manufacturing practice] processes for their clients.
The partnership will combine KBI’s expertise in drug development and biologics manufacturing activities with Argonaut’s sterile fill-finish operations expertise.
The collaboration aims to support clients in delivering clinical and commercial therapies to patients rapidly and safely.
Biopharmaceutical enterprises are anticipated to benefit from the expedited timelines and scalable manufacturing expertise provided by KBI and Argonaut.
Argonaut founder and CEO Wayne Woodard stated: “We believe this strategic alliance resolves a key issue for biopharmaceutical organisations as it greatly improves the alignment and integration between two complex and critical aspects of drug development and manufacturing.
