Presentation: Cultivating Innovation:  Evolving Cell Line Development for Next-Generation Biotherapeutics 

Séverine Fagète, PhD
Geneva Site Head & Vice President, Mammalian CLD

May 4th, 2026 | 17:30 
Room: Sydney, Level 2, Congress Center Basel 

 
Session Overview 

Advanced cell line development is critical to the success of biotherapeutic development, requiring high productivity, stability, and consistent performance from early stages through commercial manufacturing. Building on the Selexis® SUREtechnology™ foundation and CHO-M™ cell line, we have evolved our TranspoEase™ platform to enhance efficiency and flexibility. Our in-house engineered transposase drives improved integration and higher titers, while our Biselect multi-selection strategy ensures optimal chain pairing and strong expression of complex, multi-chain molecules without added vector design complexity. We also integrate developability assessment early in the workflow to support smarter candidate selection and reduce downstream risk. Looking ahead, we are redefining safety standards with the development of the first viral-free host cell line on the market—setting a new benchmark for next-generation biomanufacturing.
