RNAi Vs. mRNA: Two Therapies, Two CDMO Strategies

The biotech industry is often described in grand dichotomies such as innovator vs. generic, small vs. large molecule, or clinical vs. commercial. These differentiators influence development and manufacturing, CDMO selection and outsourcing strategies. There are also nuanced pairings, such as mRNA vs. RNAi.

Bridging The Disconnect: Commercial Clarity Will Define The Future Of CDMOs

As the cell and gene therapy sector emerged, large CDMOs ventured into the sector as if it were an easy extension of their biologics or small molecule business. It’s not. And that lack of understanding has created an industrywide bottleneck.
