VGXI Announces Expansion of its Manufacturing Facility
The Woodlands, TX (PRWEB) December 15, 2014 -- A leading contract manufacturer of clinical-grade plasmid DNA, VGXI announced today the expansion of its state-of-the-art cGMP manufacturing facility. The expansion will include an additional 3,000 square feet of space, with the primary purpose of building a dedicated, small scale cGMP production plant. Once operational, the second facility will provide greater manufacturing capacity and allow multiple client campaigns to run in parallel. As part of the overall expansion plan, the team at VGXI has already begun installation and preparation of a new 40L fermentor to add to its existing fermentation equipment.
“This is an exciting time for the field of gene therapy and DNA Vaccines. As these technologies mature, more and more companies are moving their products into clinical trials and closer to regulatory approval. The use of an experienced manufacturer to supply high quality and purity plasmid DNA at multiple scales will be an important factor in ensuring both safety and efficacy of these products.” – Christy Franco, Business Development Manager at VGXI
Having earned the Vaccine Industry Excellence Award for best CMO in both 2013 and 2014, VGXI is already positioned as an industry leader. The 3,000 sq ft expansion will enable the company to continue to meet the growing global demand for DNA-based pharmaceuticals.
