Foreword

Biotherapeutics are driving a remarkable healthcare revolution, propelling medicine into new frontiers and transforming the landscape of patient care. These advance­ments build on decades of success with monoclonal antibodies and are being further guided by technological innovations catalyzing novel therapeutic modalities. In par­allel, important fundamental scientic discoveries are shedding new light on bio­chemical processes underlying human disease and illuminating new targets for therapeutic intervention. It is an exciting time for biotechnology, a spirit that the authors have captured in the current volume, which eloquently describes both the current state of affairs and the advancements in bioprocess engineering related to biotherapeutic development.
Biotherapeutics discovery, development, and manufacturing take a village, including academic researchers who make seminal scientic discoveries, entrepre­neurs who start biotechnology companies based on this knowledge, venture capital­ists who fund these companies, pharmaceutical companies who provide expertise and resources throughout, and regulatory agencies which oversee clinical trials and approvals. A thriving ecosystem relies on stakeholders throughout the value chain, where lines and roles are becoming blurred, particularly as contract organizations become more prolic and enable outsourcing of activities that have historically been infrastructure and resource heavy. However, despite all of the advancements made and partnerships forged, the cost of developing drugs is still prohibitively expensive and the timelines excruciatingly long. Researchers in academia and industry have created tools to accelerate early-stage drug screening and character­ization efforts, yet signicant bottlenecks and costs exist with manufacturing drug candidates at scale, especially for new therapeutic modalities.
Several chapters of this volume are devoted to innovations in biotherapeutics manufacturing including scalability of DNA synthesis, cell culture technologies, and considerations related to more complex therapeutics beyond monoclonal anti­bodies such as multi-specic and fusion proteins, drug conjugates, gene therapies, vaccines, and engineered cells. Complementing the discussion are chapters focused on data analytics, bioinformatics approaches for assessing developability, and regu­latory considerations which are a key part of the manufacturing landscape.

included are deep dives on some of the twenty-rst century’s most exciting topics under the broad theme of synthetic biology, which is enabling researchers to lever­age engineering principles to construct new biological systems, molecules, and organisms with specic functionalities.
A convergence of scientic breakthroughs, technological advancements, and interdisciplinary collaboration has propelled biotherapeutics to the forefront of modern medicine. While innovations in biotherapeutics development and manufac­turing discussed in this volume are a glimpse into the extraordinary progress being made in this dynamic eld, as personalized medicine and targeted interventions continue to shape how we approach and conquer disease, it is imperative to foster continued investment in research, development, and regulatory frameworks that ensure the safety, efcacy, and accessibility of these transformative therapies. Thus, I highly recommend this book to those desiring education in these key areas.

Limitless possibilities are unleashed with continuing advances in biochemical discovery applied to human health. Within the context of the 2019 Covid pandemic, we witnessed an industry galvanized with a single purpose to pursue new medicines and vaccines to bring an end to the outbreak. While many of the approaches used were based on established technologies, we also saw disruptive solutions imple­mented with RNA technologies, scale-out strategies, and delivery solutions that have far-reaching applications.
Vaccines once again demonstrated the transformative nature of their application in providing a route out of the pandemic. Indeed, vaccination is considered one of the most successful public health interventions of all time and has undoubtedly resulted in preventing millions of deaths. But those applications are not limited to vaccines and have far-reaching potential in the eld of therapeutics, including cell and gene therapies, with the promise of treating chronic or acquired diseases. To date, we have seen the licensure of several gene therapies, against beta-thalassemia, lymphoma and leukemia, inherited retinal disorders, and cerebral adreno­leukodystrophy. These are examples of early successes, but there are countless oth­ers that do not reach the end-point, whether for reasons of cell-specic targeting or durability of response; understanding this will be critical to advancing the eld.
Our comprehension of cancer and novel mechanisms to identify, target, and kill these cells has also led to the development of bi- and tri- specic antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates. The complexity of these new molecules, from their design, stability, expression, and purication, should not be underestimated. While antibodies have historically benetted from platform processing, these new entities require a degree of customization not previously witnessed.
For the biochemical engineer or process scientist, the eld has become a much more interesting world, both in the challenges and the tools they must utilize to deliver the promise of tomorrow’s medicines. Tools such as synthetic biology and Crisper technologies allow a degree of cellular manipulation and editing for the

identication of new drug targets, biomarkers, and identication of mechanisms leading to drug resistance. In all these tool sets unlock novel strategies for the treat­ment of infectious and non-infectious diseases. However, with such novel advance­ments, the regulatory framework will have to be negotiated and the role of our scientists will be to collate the data required to license these approaches, and a voice of advocacy in driving their adoption, thus the need of developing true expertise in the eld.
Perhaps the most weighted consideration in any development plan is the cost of goods. Considering which market these products will launch and how to best achieve distribution to maximize utility is a key aspect of any target product prole. While rst-generation vaccines may have achieved the lowest cost possible; multi­product, multi-valency vaccines increase these costs. The problem is further com­pounded in the therapeutic space, especially in cell therapies where the process is affected by high labor costs and low volume production. There are two possible strategies that could be executed in a complimentary manner—operating in a glo­balized manner to take advantage of localized distribution chains and labor costs, or to create manufacturing solutions that break the economies of scale model. It is possible that a little of both will be required, which means that tech transfer and regionalization will still be critical to successful execution.
I recommend this book to those in academia and industry in the translational sci­ences and process engineering. It covers a wide range of pertinent topics described above while giving the reader a focused context of current technologies and future trends, and I commend the authors on an excellent summary of an array of dif­cult topics.

The biopharmaceutical industry has seen rapid advancements over the past four decades, dating back to the development of recombinant insulin. The signicant change and progress in that time has been breathtaking, and the editors and authors of this volume have captured recent advances in the eld which both capture our past and simultaneously look forward to future advancements.
This volume highlights the wide variety of modalities that are currently being developed within the industry. The authors begin with a discussion of the optimiza­tion and continued development of protein-based biotechnology products (mAbs, bi-specics, etc.) and focus on concerns around cellular output and process intensi­cation. This is critical, for as a more mature industry we need to deliver on the hope of biotechnology products in a global, equitable manner. Subsequent chapters review novel therapies including AAV-based gene therapies, CAR-T, ADCs, and mRNA-LNPs, emphasizing the continued evolution of modalities. This diversity of products demonstrates an expanding toolkit of potential therapeutics with which to address unmet medical needs, as well as it shows that, as a eld, we can both con­tinuously learn and apply expertise and talents to new compounds. In addition to highlighting developments in the creation of novel products, there are several

Foreword
chapters on areas which compliment the discussion of biotechnology product and process development, specically oligonucleotide synthesis, advances in bio­conjugation, informatics, regulatory strategies, continuous manufacturing, and technical transfer all of which are required for thoughtful development and imple­mentation of biopharmaceutical products.
One aspect that this volume highlights is the continued intersection of protein chemistry, cell biology, process engineering, and analytical characterization that is required to develop these complex compounds and their scalable and controlled manufacturing processes. While these disciplines were combined at the initiation of the eld of biotechnology, the level of sophistication and understanding of produc­tion cell biology (metabolism, genetics, optimal growth, and expression conditions) has expanded signicantly providing us with condence that these products can be produced at lab scale, as well as at production scale, in a manner that is predictable and sustainable. The principles and experiences associated with scale-up of mono­clonal antibodies, developed over the past 30years, can be applied to modalities which are still emerging such as potential CRISPR-based therapeutics for gene edit­ing. Again, as technologies evolve, so do therapies, enabling patients to slowly migrate, for example, from the management and treatment of hemophilia-based dis­orders with Factor VIII and Factor IX to potential AAV-based cures. The modalities are remarkably different but the fundamentals of molecular design, cell culture, process design, and manufacture of aseptic injectables are the same.
Looking forward, we can be assured that there will be challenges with new modalities as well as increased scale and production of existing products. With these challenges, however, we can be condent that the foundation of biology, chemistry, and engineering described in this volume will enable continued success in the development and implementation of novel therapies for patients across the globe.

Preface

Drug development in the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industry entails discovery, pre-clinical and clinical development and market launching of the drug under regulatory constraints. The previous two volumes (Process Chemistry in the Pharmaceutical Industry—1999 and 2008) by one of the authors (Gadamasetti) were dedicated to the development of the drug substance (active pharmaceutical ingredient), and in particular, the introduction of biologics (monoclonal antibodies) development to the process technologists and process development community in the pharmaceutical industry made a signicant impact and has been an eye-opener for some of the readers. Given the explosive growth of biologics around the turn of the millennium on the need-basis of the technologies and the applications to address the patient population demands, it became relevant to discourse the need to under­stand and share the information on biologic drugs, bioprocessing and the bioengi­neering in developing the biologic drug to bring it to patients. The editors sense the compelling need to share the various aspects of technologies and the process of biologic drug development, CMC regulatory aspects and the pathways to bring the biologic drugs to patients to minimize the pain and suffering and maximize the outcomes.
The genesis and the devastating rapid spread of the pandemic in 2019 have chal­lenged the global scientic community outlook to embrace and adapt the methods for the speedy development of vaccines to bring them to the patient population and the paradigm shift of speedy discovery and the development has once again proved the strength of unity among the researchers, developers and manufacturers alike, in addressing the challenges with sense of urgency, globally.
The work in this volume embraces the inclusivity of various disciplines to jointly undertake the problem-solving issues in discovering and developing the need-based biological medicines to market the drugs for alleviating the pain and suffering of the patients. The topics and subject material were deliberately chosen to cover a wide range of topics by global expertise: synthetic biology, oligo nucleotides and DNA synthesis, CAR-T and CRISPR technologies and applications, biosimilars, biopro­cessing, process engineering, gene therapy and vaccines, fusion proteins,
