Faster pipeline progression is discussed by Catalent expert at European Antibody Congress 2012

Part of the event’s Monoclonal Antibody Track, the panel discussion will follow the presentation of a partnership case study on Pritumumab by Mark Glassy, Chief Executive Officer of Nascent Biologics, Inc., and will examine how the collaboration was established and the skill set brought by each company. The session will go on to discuss the benefits of developing pipelines in this manner, factoring on timescales, cost and scientific expertise. It will conclude by looking to the future and how such relationships can help to take more products through the clinic to the market.
