SUMMARY:Chemoenzymatic Ligation: A New Frontier in siRNA Manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:The current oligo manufacturing paradigm relies on solid-phase synthesis\, a process heavily reliant on organic solvents/raw materials. However\, siRNA manufacturers—both biotechs and CDMOs—are in the process of starting a slow but important manufacturing transition away from solid phase synthesis toward enzymatic production\, starting with enzymatic ligation for siRNA products. This will be a closer look at the current state of affairs for enzymatic ligation—where advancements have been made\, as well as where the pain points are in building this into current processes.

SUMMARY:Beyond Standard Approaches: Integrated Thinking for Complex FIH Programs
DESCRIPTION:While platform approaches can effectively expedite standard programs\, innovators often confront molecules with unique challenges and unanticipated technical hurdles. These programs require a team that has not only the technical depth but also the experience to anticipate the distinct risks and opportunities embedded in each molecule’s story. Success depends on seeing beyond the immediate scope of work and viewing the molecule’s life holistically linking early development decisions to later-stage outcomes ensures that scientific insight transcends functional boundaries. \nThis webinar covers real-world examples where deep expertise\, integrated thinking\, and cross-functional collaboration came together to transform complex challenges into innovation opportunities. Rather than focusing on platforms or capabilities\, the session highlights how integrated\, systems-level thinking streamlines decision-making and reshapes development trajectories for even the most unconventional First-in-Human programs.

SUMMARY:Qualified eSignature in Electronic Consent Systems - A Primer for Clinical Trial Professionals
DESCRIPTION:Electronic consent (eConsent) systems have proven to add value to patients\, sponsors\, and sites. However\, varying regulations across regions and countries can impact implementation of eConsent solutions and dilute the benefits. How can clinical trial professionals adapt a global approach to eConsent rollouts that accounts for these differences? \nJoin IQVIA Technologies for an informative webinar on electronic signature (eSignature) technology for eConsent. We’ll delve into global regulatory scenarios and options for meeting eSignature requirements in each scenario\, including the benefits and limitations of: \n– Print to sign\n– Simple or Electronic Signature (SeS)\n– Advanced Electronic Signature (AeS)\n– Qualified Electronic Signature (QeS) \nLearn what to look for in eConsent solutions to ensure you’re prepared for every trial.

SUMMARY:Four Common Pitfalls to Avoid in UF/DF Setup and Scale-Up
DESCRIPTION:Ultrafiltration/Diafiltration (UF/DF) processes that look robust at the development scale often expose critical weaknesses during scale-up or tech transfer—resulting in capacity constraints\, excessive manual intervention\, delayed timelines\, or manufacturing risk. In many cases\, these issues trace back to early UF/DF decisions that seemed reasonable at the time but didn’t fully account for scalability\, system design\, or cross-functional alignment. \nIn this webinar\, we’ll break down four of the most common—and costly—pitfalls in UF/DF setup and scale-up\, including poor filter sizing and membrane selection\, overreliance on manual operations\, system design limitations\, and breakdowns in communication between Process Development and MSAT teams. Through practical examples drawn from downstream workflows\, we’ll show how these pitfalls emerge\, why they persist\, and how they impact process robustness and manufacturing success. \nAttendees will leave with practical strategies to design more scalable UF/DF processes\, reduce manual burden\, improve system selection\, and strengthen PD–MSAT collaboration—helping teams avoid late-stage surprises and enabling smoother tech transfer to manufacturing. \n   ~ Avoid scale-up surprises with membrane selection strategies that are fit-for-purpose\n    ~Reduce manual burden and operational risk by understanding when automation and system design choices matter most for robust\, scalable UF/DF operations\n    ~Enable smoother tech transfer by improving alignment and communication between Process Development and MSAT teams early in process design

SUMMARY:Bridging Discovery and CMC with Rapid Pools
DESCRIPTION:The rapid growth of complex antibody modalities—including bispecifics\, multispecifics\, Fc-fusions\, and emerging formats—has widened the gap between discovery-stage expression systems and manufacturability. Transient expression\, still widely used for screening and optimization\, often fails to reveal architecture-driven liabilities such as chain imbalance\, mispairing\, instability\, aggregation\, or poor effective yield. As a result\, promising molecular formats may be prematurely deprioritized based on incomplete expression data\, or advanced with hidden risks that surface only during cell line development and CMC. \nAsimov’s Rapid Pools platform addresses this challenge by enabling high-throughput generation of stable CHO expression pools using a new high-efficiency transposase\, CHO-K1 GS host\, and model-guided vector design. By providing early\, CLD-relevant expression and assembly data\, RapidPools allow protein engineers to directly evaluate the manufacturability of complex architectures during the design phase. This enables informed sequence\, vector\, and chain-balancing optimizations that can derisk differentiated formats that might otherwise be dropped\, while more accurately identifying designs unlikely to scale. \nAttendees will learn how integrating stable expression readouts into protein engineering workflows improves predictability\, reduces late-stage risk\, and expands the viable design space for next-generation antibody therapeutics.
