Gen­er­a­tion Bio snaps up Boston area plant as it rolls out a man­u­fac­tur­ing process it thinks will be a game chang­er

Gen­er­a­tion Bio is look­ing to move the field of gene ther­a­py in­to the fu­ture, and thinks it has a man­u­fac­tur­ing process in place that will al­low enough scale for broad dis­ease in­di­ca­tions. Now, all it needs is a plant to put those large-scale am­bi­tions in­to ac­tion.

Gen­er­a­tion signed a lease on a new 104,000-square-foot fa­cil­i­ty in Waltham, MA, set to be­come op­er­a­tional in 2023. The fa­cil­i­ty will be avail­able for pre­clin­i­cal and clin­i­cal de­vel­op­ment for its lead he­mo­phil­ia A pro­gram.
