Recombinant adeno-associated (rAAV) vector-based gene therapy has been the focus of intense research driven by the safety profile and several recent clinical breakthroughs. As of April 2021, there are two rAAV-based gene therapies approved and more than two-hundred active clinical trials (approximately thirty in Phase III). However, the expected increase in demand for rAAV vectors still poses several challenges. Discussed herein are key aspects related to R&D needs and Chemistry, Manufacturing and Control (CMC) efforts required to attend this growing demand. Authors provide their perspective on strategic topics for rAAV-based therapies success: scalability and productivity; improved safety; increased process understanding combined with development of orthogonal bioanalytics that are able to identify, monitor and control Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs) during bioprocessing.
基于重组腺相关(rAAV)载体的基因治疗一直是研究的焦点,其安全性特征和最近的一些临床突破推动了这一研究。截至 2021 年 4 月,已有两种基于 rAAV 的基因疗法获得批准,还有两百多项活跃的临床试验(约有三十项处于第三阶段)。然而,rAAV 载体需求的预期增长仍然带来了一些挑战。本文讨论了与研发需求以及化学、制造和控制(CMC)工作相关的关键方面,以满足这一不断增长的需求。作者提供了他们对 rAAV 为基础的治疗成功的战略主题的看法:可扩展性和生产力;提高安全性;在生物工艺过程中,通过开发能够识别、监测和控制关键质量属性(CQAs)的正交生物分析方法,提高过程理解。
