(Photo: Business Wire) The cell therapy manufacturing process is estimated to include upwards of 40 manual touchpoints, increasing opportunities for errors and contamination that can lead to failure and delay potentially life-saving treatment for those who need it most. The CTS Cellmation Software, powered by Emerson’s DeltaV™ Distributed Control System (DCS), connects Thermo Fisher’s cell therapy instruments within a single, user-friendly interface, reducing the number of manual touchpoints required. By establishing an automated workflow across multiple stages of cell therapy manufacturing, CTS Cellmation Software helps enable traceability, repeatability and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance with secured data connectivity. “As our biopharma partners continue to expand their cell therapy pipelines, CTS Cellmation Software enables digital integration of unit operations, helping to ensure reproducibility, traceability, and data security required for scaling cGMP manufacturing processes,” said Betty Woo, vice president of cell, gene and advanced therapies at Thermo Fisher Scientific. “This new software offers a fully validated, off-the-shelf automated solution to digitally connect and control Thermo Fisher fit-for-purpose instruments, ultimately helping deliver these potentially transformative medicines to patients more efficiently.” Thermo Fisher is committed to streamlining manufacturing for cell therapy developers and all cell therapy platforms currently in development will also align with and connect to this digital, automated framework. At present, CTS Cellmation Software connects core Thermo Fisher Scientific cell therapy instruments, including solutions from our Gibco CTS portfolio. These instruments, along with their supporting consumables and software products enable GMP-compliant, closed system manufacturing.
