WuXi Biologics (2269.HK), a leading global Contract Research, Development, and Manufacturing Organization (CRDMO), announced that two of its manufacturing facilities in Wuxi — Drug Substance Facility 2 (MFG2) and Drug Product Facility 1 (DP1) — together with its Drug Product Packaging Center (DPPC), have received GMP certification from Brazil's Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (ANVISA). The certification positions WuXi Biologics to provide end‑to‑end commercial manufacturing services — covering both drug substance and drug product — for an anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody used in cancer immunotherapy.
Based on the five-day inspection, MFG2, DP1 and DPPC successfully passed ANVISA's assessment with zero findings. The inspection results demonstrate WuXi Biologics' robust quality management system, mature GMP execution, and efficient cross-functional collaboration, while verifying the company's comprehensive capabilities to support client needs for global commercial manufacturing and supply.
