Two Steps to Improve Chances of FDA Approval and Maximize Exit Valuations
Two Steps to Improve Chances of FDA Approval and Maximize Exit Valuations Very few promising life science discoveries actually result in an approved FDA product. But once your portfolio company clears significant discovery, safety and clinical milestones, there are a few straightforward steps they can take to improve the chances of regulatory approval and maximize their exit valuation down the line. These initiatives [...]
Maximize Exit Valuations and Mitigate Risks in Your BioPharma Portfolio
Maximize Exit Valuations and Mitigate Risks in Your BioPharma Portfolio R&D discoveries and clinical efficacy remain the key drivers of success in biopharma portfolios. But there are trends that are increasing the impact that manufacturing – and related data management – have on portfolio company valuation and liquidity options. The near universal reliance on contract manufacturers (CMOs) and the FDA’s focus on data [...]
Technology Transfer: Shifting the Paradigm to Dynamic and Persistent Process Knowledge Sharing
The goal of technology transfer is defined in ICH Q10 as “[the transfer of] product and process knowledge between development and manufacturing and within manufacturing sites to achieve product realization. This knowledge forms the basis for the manufacturing process, control strategy, process validation approach and ongoing continual improvement.” Successful technology transfer is reliant on a few key variables including robust process characterization and communication [...]
