Operating in Europe and North America, the company specializes in developing autologous cell-based products, cell banking, and all needle-to-needle good manufacturing practice (GMP) operations. These vary from a validated network of apheresis collection sites to product manufacturing, quality control, GMP storage, Qualified Person (QP), and Quality Assurance (QA) release. SCTbio offers worldwide distribution of drug products for both clinical and commercial sales.[4]
History
[edit]SCTbio was founded on the 1st of July 2021 and is part of the larger PPF Biotech network. SCTbio was initially part of the Sotio group, and SCTbio's CEO, Luděk Sojka, has been part of the PPF Biotech network and Sotio since 2011.[5][6]
On November 1, 2021, Sotio changed its name to SCTbio.[7][2]
Operations
[edit]SCTbio conducts global operations in Europe and the USA. The cGMP cell manufacturing facility is based in Prague, Czech Republic. The GMP facility features over 2,000 square meters of total space, including a total clean room area of 420m² (4,520 sq ft).[8] The company offers the ability to manufacture genetically modified products that require the separation of viral and non-viral components. This physical segregation minimizes any risk of cross-contamination.
