Points to remember for ancillary materials of gene therapy products are:

  • Chemical-based transfection reagents, cell culture media, process enzymes are examples of ancillary materials utilized in the manufacturing process
  • The quality of ancillary materials can affect the final Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product safety, potency and purity
  • It is vital to qualify ancillary materials used in the manufacture of gene therapy products
