US Requests Production Plans For Ebola Drug ZMapp

2014-10-19 06:10:57| Biotech - Topix.net

U.S. officials have asked three advanced biology laboratories to submit plans for producing the experimental Ebola drug ZMapp, which ran out after it was given to a handful of medical workers who contracted the disease in West Africa, government and lab officials said on Friday. The "task order" issued on Thursday by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority asks that detailed plans, including budgets and timetables, be submitted by Nov. 10. Separately, Amgen Inc said on Friday that it will help create production lines for ZMapp using mammalian cells, a more traditional technique than the tobacco plants used to produce previous doses of ZMapp.
