Notes to Editors:
Angel Biotechnology Holdings plc is a full service contract
bio-manufacturing partner to biotechnology and pharmaceutical
companies worldwide. Angel specialises in advanced biologics
including biopharmaceutical proteins and cell therapies, such as
cellular vaccines and stem cells. At present, Angel's products are
principally used in pre-clinical studies and clinical trials with a
view to becoming the contract manufacturer of choice on a
continuing basis.
Drug development companies outsource their biopharmaceutical
manufacturing requirements to Angel to reduce their own capital
requirements and enable them to develop products more rapidly. In
addition, Angel provides complete regulatory services and
documentation to its customers while its manufacturing processes
adhere to the most stringent regulatory requirements. Products are
produced to current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) standards as
required by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and in
facilities that are certified to European standards by the
Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
Its customers range from early-stage biotechnology companies
including ReNeuron plc and US-based Pathfinder Cell Therapy, to
established pharmaceutical companies such as Russian-based Materia
Medica Holdings.
Angel has three facilities: Pentlands Science Park near
Edinburgh where it employs 38 people, a site in Cramlington, near
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, which is expected to employ up to 10 people by
the end of 2012 and our new Angel Biomedical Ltd facility in
Glasgow.
