A Hybrid mAb Manufacturing Model With John Glasspool
Post-operative venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a serious and prevalent post-operative risk that has several contributing factors. John Glasspool, CEO at Anthos therapeutics, is on a mission to address the issue—and a host of other cardiovascular and metabolic conditions—with monoclonal antibodies that inhibit coagulation Factor XI and its activated form XIa. On this episode of the Business of Biotech, Glasspool discusses the advantages and challenges of the hybrid manufacturing approach at Anthos, and how its strategy has enabled phase 1 and 2 clinical studies that have demonstrated an 80% reduction of the rate of VTE in post-operative total knee arthroplasty patients compared to the standard of care (enoxaparin).
