Course Overview

The Cell and Gene Therapy (CGT) sector has experienced a number of scientific and commercial successes and is set to grow considerably over the coming years. Through ground-breaking science and innovation, the industry is providing treatments and cures for diseases that were once impossible to overcome. Although promising, due to their nature CGTs are challenging to develop, manufacture and gain regulatory approval for.

This course will provide you with a practical understanding of regulatory challenges, manufacturing concerns and clinical trial preparation for CGTs. Using case studies and relevant examples, the course will improve your understanding of the regulatory landscape and provide you with approval routes for your product. In addition, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of the principal difficulties in delivery and shipping, applying GMP in manufacturing and getting ready for clinical trial.
