The success of cell and gene therapies relies not just on approvability but on affordability and accessibility. Innovative manufacturing, automation, and digital tools are key to expanding patient access and ensuring commercial viability.

Cutting-edge cell and gene therapies have sparked ideas for new payment models that could reshape affordability and access to life-changing care.

Decentralized manufacturing could transform cell therapy delivery by reducing delays, costs, and logistical hurdles to improve patient outcomes.

Autologous cell and gene therapies show promise but face barriers such as high costs, limited access, and payer concerns over long-term effectiveness.
