Commercialization is a tough road to navigate even for the most established bio/pharmaceutical therapies. But as cell and gene therapies (CGTs) continue to form roots and make a splash worldwide—but specifically in the US—commercialization forms its own version of standardization and best practices.
In this exclusive interview with Pharmaceutical Executive, Lung-I Cheng, vice president of CGT, Cencora (formerly AmerisourceBergen), discusses:
1) defining CGT commercialization strategies and foundational knowledge—and the best music metaphor
2) what he wishes companies knew about commercialization strategies
3) common knowledge gaps of CGTs
4) how CGT developers can overcome key challenges, including those related to patient access, regulatory requirements, and market access
5) how planning for allogeneic cell therapies differs from autologous cell therapies and gene therapies
6) how companies can demonstrate CGT value as more products enter the development pipeline (and competition intensifies)
7) when to start planning a CGT commercialization strategy
8) predictions for the CGT market in five years
