Development Capabilities
Xenova (formerly Cantab) has an impressive track record of innovation in process development for the manufacture and quality control of products for clinical trials. Our development experience covers a wide range of product types, including recombinant proteins, viruses and gene therapy vectors.

  Key Features.
Well developed project management skills
Our project management skills have been developed and honed over many years to be both efficient and effective.
Clear understanding of regulatory requirements
  Our proven experience, and continuing authorisation, is based on a thorough and close appreciation of a wide range of regulatory regimes.
Upstream and downstream process development
  Available equipment and expertise in fermentation, microcarrier culture, roller bottle culture, cell factories, hollow fibre systems, media optimisation, column  and membrane chromatography screening and development, virus removal technologies  and ultrafiltration. The many patents and patent applications we hold attest to our innovation in these areas.
Analytical and formulation development
We can transfer-in existing assays or develop and validate the assays you need. Our formulation development service has experience of recombinant proteins, live viruses and bacteria.
Documentation development
  We recognise the value of good documentation, which underpins the quality of the product being made, and ensure it is produced to the highest standards.
Effective process transfer
  From client to our development labs, then to our manufacturing facility and also to third party Phase III manufacturing plants. We have direct experience of each of these transfers and have met and overcome their particular problems.
