Scalable Novel Engineered Capsids: From Platform Manufacturability to First-in-Human

9:00 am - Wednesday 24th February 2027

  • Demonstrating that a novel engineered capsid can be manufactured on existing platform processes with productivities and yields comparable to AAV9 and confirmed at 500L clinical scale
  • Building the capsid access and tech transfer infrastructure that lets partners move quickly: established master cell banks and rep-cap plasmid at CDMOs, plus low-friction material transfer pathways for academic, foundation, and industry programs
  • Constructing an FDA-informed, MOA-driven CMC and preclinical package for a human receptor-targeted capsid to support regulatory filings and first-in-human dosing
