ATMP

Advanced Therapy
Medicinal Products

Background and challenges

ATMP is the short name for Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product and translates into « advanced therapy medicine ». It is therefore a category of medicines that includes gene therapies, cell therapies and tissue therapies.

ATMP treatments are very sophisticated and require complex biotechnological manufacturing processes to support the patient’s needs. This represents a massive challenge in the life sciences sector related to production, quality control and regulatory affairs.

The regulatory requirements combined with the long development time of these innovative therapies result in high production costs and thus impact the cost of the final product. How can we improve the development steps to support an effective treatment that changes patients’ lives drastically?

Why choose pI Life Sciences

We employ highly qualified consultants in all the ATMP production life cycle dimensions. Our experts in process development, manufacturing, quality control, regulatory affairs, and quality management can work with you to build or upgrade your manufacturing and product control strategy.
