Make Way for Advanced Therapies – Why Manufacturing Could be Coming to a Hospital Near You
Manage episode 507787372 series 2994360
In our last episode, we explored the manufacturing strategies that will be key to scaling advanced therapies. Now, we turn our focus to the UK, where new regulatory frameworks and regional collaboration are changing how therapies reach patients.
Stuart speaks with leading experts about the evolution of regulation, the role of the MHRA, and why decentralized manufacturing could unlock faster, more flexible access to treatments. He also hears how Cambridge is preparing to become a regional hub for manufacturing, and what this shift could mean for patients across the East of England and beyond. Together, these perspectives reveal how regulation, clinical insight, and patient needs are converging to shape the next chapter of cell and gene therapy in the UK.
