Rapid development and deployment of high‐volume vaccines for pandemic response

Abstract: Overcoming pandemics, such as the current Covid-19 outbreak, requires the manufacture of several billion doses of vaccines within months. This is an extremely challenging task given the constraints in small-scale manufacturing for clinical trials, clinical testing timelines involving multiple phases and largescale drug substance and drug product manufacturing. To tackle these challenges, regulatory processes are fast-tracked, and rapid-response manufacturing platform technologies are used. Here, we evaluate th… Show more

“…The only component that needs to be changed in this process when switching to the production of a new vaccine is the DNA template based on which the RNA is synthesised using the T7 RNA Polymerase enzyme. The creation of a DNA template has been achieved within days after determining the genetic sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus [ 26 , 41 , 42 ]. The DNA template can be produced at large scale as plasmid DNA using well-established Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) fermentation-based processes [ 43 , 44 , 45 ] or by using enzymatic processes, such as the doggybone™ developed by Touchlight Genetics Ltd., U.K [ 46 , 47 , 48 ].…”

“…Information regarding mRNA and saRNA vaccine production processes and costs was obtained from the scientific literature [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ], patent databases [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ], from GMP grade material suppliers, such as TriLink BioTechnologies Inc., San Diego, CA, USA and Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Germany. In addition, details regarding the configuration of the production process was obtained by active involvement of the authors in RNA vaccine production process development activities [ 25 , 26 , 27 ] and by discussing with contract manufacturing experts from TriLink BioTechnologies Inc., San Diego, CA, USA and Centre for Process Innovation Ltd., Darlington, UK. Information regarding mRNA DS amount per dose was obtained from clinical trial databases [ 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 ] and the scientific literature [ 11 ].…”

“…[1] We are sure there are many of you who have worked long hours to innovate your manufacturing and processing systems to cope with the challenges of COVID-19 and we would welcome articles and commentaries on how advanced manufacturing can play a role in our collective response. In this issue of JAMP we share a commentary on the rapid manufacturing of vaccines as our contribution to understanding how our community might respond to COVID-19, [2] and we would like to encourage you to consider other ways in which our manufacturing systems will change in response to the pandemic. However, much as there is a need to address the short-term disruptions caused by a pandemic, and to understand how research can respond to create advanced manufacturing and processing systems with flexibility and resilience in the future, we also need to continue to push forward with efforts that provide new foundations for those features and we have curated articles that we hope fulfill that goal.…”
