Autolus FIRST LOOK: MHRA certification for manufacturing site
Autolus' manufacturing site, the Nucleus, has obtained MIA and GMP certification from the MHRA, enabling production of global commercial and clinical product supply. We estimate the site to have a capacity of 2,000+ batches per year, sufficient to cover the company's launch in r/r ALL and beyond, while targeting a vein-to-delivery time of 16 days at launch. With ample capacity at launch, we do not expect Autolus to run into the manufacturing or supply issues experienced by other companies during the first CAR-T launches. We reiterate our $ 11 TP and Buy rating.
