Overview

Establishing multi-attribute methodology (MAM) in biotherapeutic process development streamlines the evaluation and monitoring of potential PQAs that are crucial to ensuring quality, safety and efficacy.

Regulatory requirements continue to evolve and expand, increasing the pressure to provide more detailed information on a biotherapeutic. There is a need to reduce the amount of resources required to collect this information, but gain an even deeper understanding of the therapeutic. 

Directly monitor multiple PQAs in single LC-MS assays with MAM solutions designed to address next generation drug development.

Workflow

Enhanced MAM workflow

Embrace the multitasking power of MAM with confident identification of PQAs and unambiguous differentiation of their isomers. Turbocharge your MAM workflows with a faster, more in depth view of your biologic by leveraging the power of electron activated dissociation (EAD) and gain comprehensive characterization at both the intact protein and peptide level from a single injection. A streamlined data flow creates a single software solution connecting peptide mapping results with PQA quantitation and monitoring with compliant-ready software.

  • Detect and flag the presence of unspecified impurities
  • Confident differentiation of isomers
  • Track known variants and contaminants
  • Software templates optimized for peptide mapping and PQA selection
  • Single software solution for PQA definition, monitoring, quantitation, purity testing and reporting
