Cell and Gene Therapy Solutions

Developing a cell or gene therapy is a uniquely complex process requiring specialized scientific, regulatory and logistical insights and capabilities. Whether you’re developing a viral (such as AAV) or nonviral-based gene therapy, an adoptive or autologous cell therapy, a stem cell therapy or other type of regenerative medicine, your program will face challenges that can delay or even derail your therapeutic’s development.

Overcome these challenges with the help of the Covance cell and gene therapy team and its coordinated, global capabilities that offers unparalleled technical, regulatory and commercialization expertise. Coupled with our program management, consultation and renowned capabilities in biomarkers and companion diagnostics, you can obtain comprehensive, integrated solutions that address the unique needs of your program.

By working with one CRO partner, you can trim your development timeline, simplify an already complex program and mitigate potential risks inherent to a program split across multiple vendors. In addition, with numerous expedited regulatory review and approval pathways, such as the Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation, a compressed and shortened development program may be possible. Let us help align and optimize your development plan and create a long-term, strategic vision for your program that will accelerate your cell and gene therapy’s development.

Staying ahead of the curve in the dynamic field of cell and gene therapies requires an ongoing investment in people, processes and technologies. To help ensure your cell and gene therapy programs continue to advance effectively and efficiently, Covance has formed strategic partnerships, made key acquisitions and invested in many impactful innovations to remain at the forefront of cell and gene therapy development.

Cell and gene therapies also require specialized therapeutic and specialty area expertise, in particular for rare diseases, pediatrics, oncology and immuno-oncology.
