CDMO Made Scientific held the grand opening of its new 60,000ft2 cell therapy GMP manufacturing facility and headquarters in Princeton, NJ.
The opening marks the completion of a $12 million initial investment in facility upgrades, equipment, and business system digitization, strengthening Made Scientific’s position in the cell therapy sector and commitment to building long-term manufacturing capacity to support the next generation of cell therapies globally, according to Syed T. Husain, chairman and CEO.
A second phase of expansion has already been announced, and the company is expected to grow its workforce with more than 100 additional skilled professionals, he added.
“Today is more than a ribbon cutting. It is a clear signal of our commitment to this incredible industry and to this region,” said Husain. “This facility is a testament to our dedication to supporting the next generation of cell therapy innovators for clinical-to-commercial manufacturing, all under one roof. With a globally compliant infrastructure, high-throughput GMP capacity, and a world-class team built for precision and speed, we are here to help our partners bring transformative therapies to patients with confidence and efficiency.”
The Princeton facility includes five ISO 7/Grade B cleanrooms, in-house quality control labs, and dedicated process and analytical development capabilities. It also incorporates advanced digital infrastructure, including Oracle NetSuite® for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Veeva Systems for Quality Management (QMS), Autolomous AutoloMATE® for Electronic Batch Records and Manufacturing Execution (MES), and LabVantage® for Laboratory Information Management (LIMS), ensuring end-to-end program visibility and operational rigor.
As part of its broader expansion, the event highlighted Made Scientific’s recent announcement of an additional 12,000ft2 build-out of GMP manufacturing cleanroom space, which reportedly will meet FDA and EU Annex 1 compliance standards and include high-throughput and automated manufacturing technologies. Once fully operational, the expansion will increase capacity by up to 2,000 additional batches per year to support late-phase and commercial programs, noted Husain.
