This agreement comes ahead of entering into an anticipated master services agreement for the development and manufacture of FibroBiologics' master cell bank, working cell bank, and fibroblast-based spheroids to be utilized in clinical trials.
To help advance FibroBiologics' fibroblast-based therapies into the clinic, Charles River will conduct feasibility studies on FibroBiologics' cell manufacturing processes within its facility. Additionally, contingent upon entering into a master services agreement, Charles River would serve as the contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) responsible for producing drug products for certain FibroBiologics' clinical trials.
