mRNA Vaccines


Overview: WuXi Vaccines’ services for mRNA therapeutics and vaccines

 

WuXi Vaccines offers extensive capabilities and capacity in the development and GMP manufacturing of mRNA therapeutics and vaccines. Our highly-trained and expert team offers end-to-end services, starting from plasmid DNA manufacturing to the production and release of the final mRNA vaccine product under GMP conditions. We have dedicated GMP facilities, including a microbial-based manufacturing facility equipped with fermenters of up to 300 L scale for plasmid DNA production, up to 50L mRNA IVT reaction along with multiple vessels and purification equipment to cover a wide range of reaction volumes for mRNA transcription and purification. Our DP manufacturing capabilities include state-of-the-art mRNA-LNP production systems and robotic aseptic filling systems. All of our services are built upon our exceptional in-house CMC development and manufacturing capabilities and expertise, driven by our commitment to executional excellence and adherence to world-class quality systems.

 

Integrated end-to-end services from sequence to IND

 

Key services include:

 

  • Sequence optimization Process development:
    • Plasmid DNA: E. coli fermentation, cell lysis and purification
    • mRNA: In Vitro Transcription (IVT) including co-capping or post-capping options, purification
    • LNP: encapsulation, UF/DF, fill/finish
  • Tech transfer and scale-up
  • cGMP manufacturing: DS (mRNA) and DP (mRNA-LNP)
  • Comprehensive analytical development and QC testing capability
  • Full CMC and Regulatory support

Bulk Vaccine Process Development and Manufacturing
