GC Biopharma US Team to Present Clinical Symposium on GC Biopharma's patented CEX Technology Manufacturing Process at IgNS 2023 Annual Conference
Fort Lee, NJ - GC Biopharma's GC5107, a new 10% liquid glycine-stabilized IVIG currently pending FDA approval, is manufactured through a unique patented technology. Dr. Alan Huber, Director of Medical Affairs for GC Biopharma USA, and Dr. Gil Bu Kang, General Manager of GC Biopharma's Research and Development Center, will be presenting: "Cation Exchange Chromatography: An Effective Means of Removing FXIa from a 10% IVIG Preparation" at a live clinical symposium at the IgNS Annual Conference being held in Denver, CO from Oct. 5 – 9, 2023.
Factor XIA has been identified as a root cause for increasing the Thrombotic Embolism Events (TEE) rate in patients on IVIG formulations. The clinical symposium will review how GC Biopharma's CEX Chromatography process has additional manufacturing steps and employs a ceramic-based resin to reduce FXIa activity and antigen to below detection limits in GC5107.
GC Biopharma is committed to improving lives while focusing on patient safety. Establishing an effective means of removing FXIa from IVIG preparations has been a long-standing goal for the company. This novel manufacturing process demonstrates GC's commitment to further improve safety for patients who rely on IVIG therapy.
