Fully continuous biomanufacturing platform
• Genzyme developing a continuous integrated platform
− Technical results are promising
− But can we justify the platform from a business perspective?
− And can we use economic modeling to guide development?
2
Economic drivers for the continuous platform
CAPEX
Universal platform
OPEX
Risk
Omni-product facilities Common work force Flexible infrastructure
Step reduction
Smaller facilities
Simpler process
Volume reduction
Smaller facilities
No scale-up
Single-use tech
More automation
Faster build times
Reduced turnaround
Increased complexity
Less labor
Steady state
High-productivity
Consistent operation
Smaller facilities
Closed process
Steady quality
Media requirements
• Can we quantify these advantages and disadvantages?

Financial valuation methodology
•
•
•
•
Estimate CAPEX/OPEX using BioSolve software
Estimate platform dev costs and lay out a future product timeline
Predict discounted cash flows for legacy & continuous platforms
Calculate financial indicators (e.g., NPV) and make assessment

Facility estimates: CAPEX and OPEX
• Use BioSolve software package
− Define process (unit ops, scaling rules, assumptions)
− Calibrate cost data (equipment, materials, labor, etc.)
− Benchmark against previous internal and external projects

• Create a hypothetical product timeline with various mAb
and enzyme product launches
• Calculate NPV for two scenarios
− Legacy platforms (fed-batch and microcarrier perfusion)
− Universal continuous platform
• Compare NPVs to estimate value of new platform

• Different product launch scenarios can be investigated
• Continuous platform competes in a variety of scenarios

Conclusions
• Infrastructure in place for economic modeling of future
platforms
• Preliminary analysis shows strong, quantifiable business
drivers for continuous platform
− We will continue to revisit and improve assumptions
− Additional sensitivity analyses
− Expand comparisons to other platforms (e.g., disposable FB)
• Process development guidance
− Cell density and CSPR are influential upstream parameters
− Similar parameters will be found for downstream process
