This collaboration enables clients to integrate with Scorpius’ program management team and quality system while preparing to transfer a research cell bank (RCB) to the Company’s facilities in San Antonio, TX, for further biomanufacturing work. In addition to full-scale cell line development services, Celltheon offers Scorpius clients services in antibody discovery, variant screening and development, and comparability studies.

Jeff Wolf, CEO of Scorpius, commented, “We are excited to collaborate with Celltheon, a partner that shares Scorpius’ mission to deliver responsive, high-quality, flexible services to early-stage biotechs and academic researchers. This partnership allows our clients to secure their supply chain and intellectual property by working with Celltheon, a California-based company, and then transferring their high-expressing, stable cell line to our state-of-the-art GMP facility in Texas to continue manufacturing.”

“We look forward to helping Scorpius clients overcome their early development challenges so they can seamlessly move to GMP activity. Together, Celltheon and Scorpius are committed to ensuring that the next generation of biotherapeutics get to patients faster and more affordably,” added Divya Goel, VP of Business Development and Board Member at Celltheon.
