How a global network provides a genuine advantage.

When a client gets an opportunity to expand rapidly, it takes a global partner to pull it off without a hitch. That’s what happened when Isabelle’s client received approval for a second indication for a drug that Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Patheon business was making. She knew manufacturing volume would go up. Fast. Her fear was that the two sites currently making the product couldn’t handle the increased volume. So, she tapped into the power of her global team, and in partnership with the client, conducted multiple trials simultaneously across Thermo Fisher’s global manufacturing network. As a result, they found a third site that met the client’s regulatory filling specifications, and most importantly, met the growing patient demand.
