Solutions for mRNA / LNP Bioprocessing

With the proven success of mRNA-based vaccines in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, mRNA technology is at the forefront of transforming the world of medicine. Clinical trials are ongoing to develop both vaccines and therapies to treat infectious diseases and even cancer. 

The development and manufacturing of messenger RNA (mRNA) therapies are impacted by low process yields and scalability challenges. Vaccines based on mRNA containing lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are a promising new platform that has demonstrated high protein expression, robust immune responses, and efficacy in numerous animal studies. Plasmid DNA (pDNA) is a critical redelivery template for mRNA.

Repligen offers solutions that help overcome key challenges in mRNA/LNP, and pDNA manufacturing, with hands-on process and implementation consultation from recognized Gene Therapy, oncolytic and vaccines industry.​
