全球領先的開放式生物制藥技術平臺公司藥明生物（WuXi Biologics, 2269.HK）今日宣布，其從事疫苗合同定制研發生產（CDMO）服務的子公司藥明海德已經與一家全球疫苗巨頭達成戰略合作伙伴關系，簽署了長達二十年的疫苗生產供應合同，將在愛爾蘭新建一座疫苗專用生產基地服務全球市場，該合同總金額約30億美元。
根據該合同，藥明海德已經著手在愛爾蘭新建一座集疫苗原液、制劑、工藝放大、質量控制（QC）實驗室于一體的工業化生產及供應基地，專門生產該客戶的創新性疫苗以供應全球市場。該生產基地預計2022年投入運行。
2019年11月，藥明海德宣布投資2.4億美元建設疫苗原液及制劑廠等生產基地。該基地將位于藥明生物愛爾蘭園區內，毗鄰藥明生物正在建設的全球領先生物制藥“未來工廠”生產基地，后者預計將于2021年投入商業化生產。
藥明海德是藥明生物與位于上海的海利生物（股票代碼：603718.SH）共同成立的合資企業，致力于打造全球疫苗行業領先的一體化能力和技術平臺，提供疫苗合同定制研發生產（CDMO）服務，賦能全球疫苗行業研發和生產。
“此項戰略合作開創了疫苗行業全新合作模式，對藥明生物、藥明海德乃至全球疫苗產業而言都具有歷史性意義。由于生產工藝高度復雜、分析檢測方法繁多以及法規標準嚴格，疫苗生產難度頗高，生產過程中的工藝質量控制對確保產品質量也至關重要。此次與全球疫苗巨頭達成戰略合作伙伴關系，獨家生產一款創新性疫苗并供應全球市場，進一步彰顯了藥明生物、藥明海德領先的技術優勢和全球高標準質量體系。”藥明生物首席執行官兼藥明海德董事長陳智勝博士表示，“疫苗CDMO業務是藥明生物發展的新增長點之一，該項目的啟動將推動疫苗業務進一步助力公司持續高速增長。藥明生物將攜手藥明海德繼續通過健全強大的全球供應鏈網絡，賦能合作伙伴生產高質量治療性蛋白藥物及疫苗產品，造福全球病患，保護人類健康。”
