SYDNEY,Sept. 13,2024 --Aurora Biosynthetics,a pioneering advanced RNA therapeutics manufacturing company,announced its official launch. This heralds a new era in RNA therapeutics manufacturing across the Asia-Pacific region. Aurora Biosynthetics is poised to meet the surging demand for advanced RNA-based therapies by providing a complete end-to-end solution for Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) production of plasmid DNA (pDNA),messenger RNA (mRNA),and lipid nanoparticles (LNP).
Strategic Collaboration with the NSW Government,RNA Australia and Myeloid Therapeutics
Aurora Biosynthetics reflects a strategically important,public-private partnership between the New South Wales (NSW) Government,RNA Australia and Myeloid Therapeutics,a leader in RNA immunotherapies. This collaboration combines cutting-edge RNA manufacturing capabilities with strong support from the NSW Government,supporting Aurora's rapid build,scale-up and robust entry into the global RNA manufacturing market.
The NSW Government committed AU$200 million in support of the RNA ecosystem in Australia,and it accepted the construction costs associated with building this state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. The facility is co-located on Macquarie University,in Sydney,NSW,in a location that uniquely positions Australia to make gains across the RNA field,including fostering collaboration with leading academic researchers and ensuring access to a highly skilled workforce.
Comprehensive RNA Manufacturing Capabilities
Aurora Biosynthetics is uniquely positioned to provide a fully-integrated RNA manufacturing solution that will enable product creation,development and commercialization,including:
GMP Plasmid Production: Essential for supporting cell and gene therapies,as well as mRNA production
GMP RNA Production: Specializing in the production of RNA
GMP Lipid Nanoparticle Production: Offering LNP encapsulation for mRNA and other active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) using the latest technologies
Fill-Finish Services: Providing final formulation and fill-finish capabilities for clinical trial and commercial use
This comprehensive suite of services enables Aurora to offer a streamlined,one-stop solution that reduces complexity and accelerates time-to-market for its collaborators and clients.
Vision for the Future
