Done Right From DNA to IND

Integrated biologics development from gene sequence to IND-enablingCGMPbatch, one team, one program, fully US-based.

Value

Move to IND with
Clarity and Momentum

Faster path to IND

Parallel development workstreams keep your program advancing, accelerating timelines while maintaining the quality and rigor required for IND submission.

Built for scale from day one

Cell lines, processes, and analytical methods are designed with future manufacturing in mind, so your program is ready for what comes next.

Stronger CMC foundation

Every dataset and document is developed with IND submission requirements in mind from the beginning.

Aligned, integrated execution

One team working across all phases ensures continuity, shared understanding, and
consistent decision-making.

SOLUTION

One Program.
Fully Aligned.

Avid’s DNA to IND solution brings together every CMC development function under one team, in one location, under one quality system.

Cell line development, process development, analytical development, formulation, andCGMPmanufacturing are executed as a continuous program, not disconnected phases. This approach supports consistency, accelerates timelines, and simplifies the path to IND.

DNA to IND FAQs

US-based development supports streamlined communication, alignment with FDA expectations, and reduced logistical complexity.

A typical DNA to IND program takes approximately 12–18 months, depending on molecule complexity, expression system, and development scope. Integrated programs with parallel workstreams can support more efficient timelines.

The CMC section of an IND submission includes details on the manufacturing process, analytical characterization, stability data, cell bank information, and release testing from the IND-enablingCGMPbatch.

A single CDMO supports continuity across development stages, allowing teams to build on shared knowledge and aligned processes. This integrated approach simplifies coordination, supports efficient timelines, and produces a consistent regulatory package.

An IND-enablingCGMPbatch is the first drug substance manufactured under CGMP conditions to support regulatory submission. It provides the release, stability, and manufacturing data required for the IND application.

Yes. Avid supports programs from early development through clinical and commercial manufacturing, allowing for continuity of team, process, and quality systems without the need for tech transfer.
