Abstract Annually, influenza virus infects millions of people worldwide. Vaccination programs against seasonal influenza infections require the production of hundreds of million doses within a very short period of time. The influenza vaccine is currently produced using a technology developed in the 1940s that relies on replicating the virus in embryonated hens’ eggs. The monovalent viral preparation is inactivated and purified before being formulated in trivalent or tetravalent influenza vaccines.
The production process has depended on a continuous supply of eggs. In the case of pandemic outbreaks, this mode of production might be problematic because of a possible drastic reduction in the egg supply and the low flexibility of the manufacturing process resulting in a lack of supply of the required vaccine doses in a timely fashion. Novel production systems using mammalian or insect cell cultures have emerged to overcome the limitations of the egg-based production system. These industrially well-established production systems have been primarily selected for a faster and more flexible response to pandemic threats. Here, we review the most important cell culture manufacturing processes that have been developed in recent years for mass production of influenza vaccines.
Representatives from Elanco Animal Health will be on hand to officially open the doors to its new autogenous poultry vaccine facility in Winslow, Maine, on Wednesday, May 3, 2017 at 1:30 p.m. The first of its kind for Elanco, the new state-of-the-art facility is dedicated solely on manufacturing customized, high-quality inactivated vaccines for the poultry industry that will assist in the prevention of unique disease challenges and protection from food safety issues that can’t be addressed with commercially available vaccines. “Elanco autogenous vaccines are different than commercial vaccines,” explains Milson Gondim, Vice President of Vaccine Operations Manufacturing for Elanco.
“We manufacture these vaccines using flock- specific serotypes not found in commercial vaccines, which gives us the ability to provide poultry producers with disease prevention and food safety solutions unique to their specific operation.” According to Tim Hopson, Elanco Poultry District Sales Manager, the new dedicated autogenous facility reflects Elanco’s on-going commitment to meet customers’ needs long term. “The poultry industry needs solutions that go beyond one size fits all,” says Hopson. “The new facility here in Winslow reflects our commitment to providing our customers with the solutions they need to be productive, sustainable and profitable for years to come.” In addition to autogenous vaccine production, the Winslow facility is also the only location in the U.S. That produces commercial live and inactivated poultry vaccines for Elanco. “So, whether our customers require a commercial vaccine or one that is customized, this new facility will enhance Elanco’s ability to meet their needs,” says Gondim.
