Tailored Viral Vector Solutions to Overcome Manufacturing Challenges

Scalability

Exothera leverages industry-leading platforms, including scale-X™ bioreactors from Univercells Technologies and iCELLis® bioreactors from Pall Corporation, ensuring predictable and seamless scale-up from R&D to GMP production.

  • Fixed-Bed Bioreactors: Ideal for adherent cell culture, enabling high cell density and productivity.
    • Adherent platform: From 10m² up to 600m²
  • Stirred-Tank & Wave Bioreactors: Single-use suspension bioreactors for flexible and scalable viral vector production.
    • Suspension platform: From 10L to 200L and even up to 2000L

Efficiency & Cost-Effectiveness

Our advanced bioreactor platforms are designed to optimize yield while reducing footprint, time, and cost. The scale-X™ technology enhances process intensification, enabling higher productivity with lower operational costs. Our stirred tank platform provides the scalability and flexibility needed to efficiently meet clinical and commercial demands, without compromising on quality or cost control.

Product Quality & Consistency

We integrate state-of-the-art purification and analytics to ensure high-quality viral vector production. Our robust single-use downstream processing (DSP) solutions—including chromatography, filtration, and formulation—help maintain the highest purity and potency for your therapy.

 

Regulatory & CMC Support

Navigating regulatory pathways can be complex, but our team is here to support you. Exothera provides comprehensive CMC consulting to facilitate regulatory submissions and increase your therapy’s chances of approval.

We also offer

  • GMP banking services, including MCB, MVS, WCB, and WVS
  • Stability studies on Drug Substance and Drug Product
  • Fill & Finish capabilities
  • Storage solutions for your product
  • Ability to work with HQ Grade or GMP Plasmid
