AI in Pharma Manufacturing: Pragmatic steps to implement data science in GMP manufacturing

Tuesday, May 21, 2024 • Duration 23:00

Aizon is on a mission to integrate modern computing into the complex arena of GMP manufacturing processes in life sciences.

In the latest episode of the PharmaSource podcast we sat down with Claus Abildgren, Chief Revenue Officer at Aizon, and David O’Gara, Strategic Advisor to Aizon to understand how artificial intelligence can make an impact on manufacturing in the highly-regulated industry.

“Our goal is to evolve the industry by taking pragmatic steps towards enhancing manufacturing performance through practical applications.” says Claus. “We aim to optimize the current capacity of manufacturers and utilize artificial intelligence to anticipate and mitigate the risk of adverse events with predictive capabilities.”

When producing drug products under stringent GMP conditions, “ensuring quality is fundamental. This includes securing data integrity and maintaining comprehensive audit trails—key aspects of deploying technology in a highly regulated environment.”

Leveraging the data generated at a plant leads to identifying opportunities for yield improvements, thereby ensuring high-quality production, delivered on time and at reasonable costs. says David.

“Automated quality reports can significantly reduce the workload for quality organizations and production plant chemists.”

Deploying this technology, especially at CDMOs and for their sponsors, can yield substantial returns, particularly with high-value molecules where even a 1% improvement can have a remarkable impact on return on investment.

How Pfizer CentreOne unlocks the power of Pfizer experts for CDMO partners

Tuesday, May 14, 2024 • Duration 45:35

Pfizer CentreOne is an “altogether different kind of CDMO”. Unlike a pure play contract development and manufacturing partner, they don’t own their own plants and pharmaceutical development centres.

Ahead of CDMO Live 2024 we sat down with Tom Wilson, VP of Global Contract Manufacturing at Pfizer CentreOne, to discuss how their integrated business model sets them apart from other contract manufacturing partners.

Pfizer CentreOne offers a comprehensive range of services including small molecule API, solid oral dose, sterile injectables, biologics, and cell & gene therapies.

“Pfizer spends over a billion dollars every year to maintain our global network of 38 plants.” says Tom.

“When we bring a client partner on board, they get access to the same manufacturing work centres, scientists, and analysts that Pfizer uses for its products. We have robust ways of controlling intellectual property, ensuring we’re protecting our clients and our own IP.”

“Pfizer’s main mission statement is ‘time is life’. We bring that patient centricity to our CDMO practice. Clients are usually surprised that we’re not talking immediately about our technology, but instead about their patient’s journey, then how can we help make a difference.”
