TECH TALK: A Proven Dual Virus Spike Approach for Efficient Viral Clearance Studies

Heather Horne, Director, Program Integration
Wednesday, March 4 | 5:10 PM
Theatre 5

 



Session overview

Viral clearance studies are essential for biopharmaceutical safety and regulatory compliance. However, traditional single-virus testing is slow, costly, and resource-intensive. Discover how KBI Biopharma and Texcell North America developed a proven dual virus spike approach to streamline these critical studies.

This approach reduced viral spiking study timelines by 50%, equipment and material costs by 28%, and material requirements by approximately 30% compared to traditional testing. By removing barriers that slow drug development, this method helps biopharmaceutical developers bring treatments to patients faster and more efficiently.
