Since the #BIOSECURE Act was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives at the beginning of this year, the speculation and concern over its potential impacts have sent shockwaves through the #biopharma industry. With emerging #biotechs comprising 80% of the investigational drug pipeline, 65% of these companies working with overseas #CDMOs, and 80% of all APIs consumed in the U.S. being manufactured overseas, the concerns surrounding the impact this may have on drug development and supply as a whole are apparent. These concerns highlight the dire necessity to not only build up #domestic manufacturing capacity in order to mitigate against potential drug shortages, as was seen in the first half of 2024, but also the imperative for emerging biotechs to reshore their manufacturing before potentially losing out on federal funding, threatening life-saving drug programs. In our latest blog, we take a look at the potential impacts of the BIOSECURE Act on emerging biotechs, the advantages of prioritizing domestic biologics manufacturing, and how this could particularly threaten access to small-scale production. To learn more about how Wheeler Bio, Inc. is deploying our purpose-built Portable CMC® platform to ameliorate these concerns and provide a rapid, flexible, and cost-effective path to the clinic, visit wheelerbio.com or reach out any time to [email protected] to speak with our team!

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐃𝐌𝐎 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭? There is a fundamental mismatch between the needs of drug innovators and the services provided by conventional CDMOs. This ingrained misalignment is what led to the conception of Wheeler Bio, Inc. Considering venture-backed biotechs account for around 80% of all programs in the investigational drug pipeline, these companies require CDMO services that are flexible, efficient, and align with their goals for the success of their programs. At Wheeler, we recognized the scarcity of these attributes in the CDMO industry and the impact this has on the overall therapeutic pipeline. In order to solve these needs and thereby ensure more advanced therapeutics reach patients in need, we rebuilt the conventional CDMO model in favor of innovators through: ▶ 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥: Uniting specialists into a one-stop-shop, ameliorating the CRO-CDMO trench and building a clear path from Discovery to IND. ▶ 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬: Low-cost entry, no scope creep, access to early CMC data, and unmatched flexibility. ▶ 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦: Greater speed, reduced risk, enhanced predictability, and an intense focus on antibody and antibody-like modalities. ▶ 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬: Right scale manufacturing, flexible ballroom suites, and state-of-the-art technologies. ▶ 𝐀𝐥𝐥-𝐢𝐧-𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠: Predictable cash burn, no surprise costs or budget creep.
