Cell and gene therapy is one of the growing divisions of the healthcare industry. The growth in the clinical adoption of advanced cell therapy is one of the major factors raising the demand for personalized medicines. In addition, the growing demand for cell therapy and the promise it holds further raise the requirement for MES solutions. It is seen that cell therapy is moving from a manual-oriented lab environment to identifying production scale principles to make the process more robust and error-free with reduced costs. In the cell therapy process, MES can help automate the tracking of the patient’s blood cells through the system and thus offer significant valuable insights for the treatment been manufactured. Furthermore, electronic verification of the process negates human error and can improve a lab's throughput. In addition, the MES solution can also help reduce risk by alerting operators about problems that could have catastrophic consequences. Several market players are also providing MES solutions, particularly for cell and gene manufacturing. For example, POMS Corporation provides POMSnet MES. The MES solution helps regulate industry deliveries such as genealogy, material management, and equipment tracking (instruments, safety hoods, centrifuges, and more). Also, the electronic batch record execution helps manufacturers deliver cell therapies faster by streamlining the production workflow with a cloud-based MES.
There is also an increasing number of collaborations between key solution providers of the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry’s ecosystem for developing advanced solutions for cell and gene therapy product manufacturing. In January 2022, TrakCel, a supplier of cellular orchestration solutions for the cell and gene therapy industry, collaborated with Korber for software integration. The collaboration resulted in a functional integration between TrakCel’s OCELLOS and Korber’s PAS-X. It is expected to allow both companies' cell and gene therapy customers to effectively share data detailing manufacturing events and milestones such as starting checks, fill and finish, and product release; and provide full traceability and audit logs. Thus, the growing application and adoption of MES by the market players in cell and gene therapy manufacturing is expected to create an opportunity for the growth of the manufacturing execution system in life sciences market during the forecast period.
