Case Study
Sutro BioPharma increases staff efficiency by 33% with 1Platform4® Manufacturing.
The Challenge
Sutro BioPharma in San Francisco, CA, is a clinical stage company that aims to transform the lives of cancer patients through the development and commercialization of an array of biotherapeutic modalities including ADCs and bispecific antibodies. They needed a collaboration engine to connect their late-stage development programs to their GMP manufacturing facility.
The Solution
Sutro BioPharma selected 1Platform4® Manufacturing to accelerate their analytical and process development functions and to be the nexus for reagent inventory and analytical testing activities. Building upon this success, the company asked BioIT Solutions to expand into the clinical stage GMP manufacturing facility. The resulting system acts as a pipeline linking development and clinical manufacturing operations and has increased staff efficiency by 33%.

Faster Method Development
By collecting analytical and process development activities in a combined system, the team has been able to shave 50% of the time needed to develop and validate assays. This speeds time to the clinic and time-to-file.
1Platform4® Manufacturing is flexible and adaptable. Our business continues to evolve and the BioIT team has been able to keep pace. We rely on their software for everything from reagent inventory to lot traceability, experimental monitoring and analytical development, to stability testing. This has allowed us to do more with the existing staff.
