Pfizer opens gene therapy facility in NC for early-stage production

16th December 2021

Pfizer opened a new complex in Durham. It's an 85,000 square foot site which is part of an overall $800 million investment in three gene therapy facilities in the state. The plant replaces and updates a smaller site in nearby Chapel Hill. Fifty employees from that plant will move to Durham, soon to be joined by 40 new hires. The net effect will be a quadrupling of clinical manufacturing capacity. Source: Fierce Pharma 16/12/2021
