Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs), also known as cell and gene therapies, are becoming increasingly common.  However, they’re far more complex than “traditional” biotech products, with sophisticated requirements throughout their supply chains.  

They must be managed with speed and precision, with stringent biosafety requirements and tightly controlled temperatures, all while protecting patient data, as well as the chains of identity and custody.  This must be done through numerous steps and supply chain partners.

Making an ATMP supply chain work requires precise orchestration.  A biopharma company must ensure that all partners and components “mesh” effectively.  

    This webinar will :
     Identify the unique components that make ATMP supply chains so complex
     Show key points where precise orchestration is needed to prepare supply chains for launch and keep them running smoothly
     Provide guidance for decision makers, who must orchestrate supply chains in an environment with evolving regulatory frameworks and few consistent standards
