Drugs for cancer treatment of animals are subject to high quality standards and are manufactured under cleanroom conditions. This was the case with the company PetBioCell, a laboratory producing cancer therapies for dogs, cats and horses. For this purpose, industry service provider WISAG built a new modular cleanroom laboratory within just four weeks.
This module was installed at the Veterinary Clinic of Dr Thomas Grammel in Osterode am Harz, Germany in September.
PetBioCell was founded in 2012 and provides veterinary clinics like that of Thomas Grammel with the possibility of manufacturing cancer drugs. Currently, about 100 cancer patients per year are supplied with autologous vaccines, i.e. individually made for each patient. For the laboratory operator, the new cleanroom solution offers a decisive advantage. ‘To ensure high product quality and professionalism in the manufacture of medicines, a high-quality cleanroom was a prerequisite,’ says Simon Greaves, CEO of PetBioCell and son of the veterinary clinic owner.
