CPhI Monthly Podcast: The opportunities and challenges of providing fill and finish services for mRNA platforms

mRNA (Messenger ribonucleuc acid) technology has been thrust into the limelight in recent months, with the platform proving to be the springboard for two approved vaccines against the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

The complex science around mRNA is very different from that of small molecule traditional pharmaceuticals or traditional biologics such as monoclonal antibodies.

This month we speak to Christy Eatmon, Global SME, Sterile Drug Products, Pharma Services Group at Thermo Fisher Scientific about how CDMOs are providing their manufacturing and fill finish expertise to bring mRNA vaccines to market in as timely a fashion as possible.
