Integrated with pilot plant for early-stage synthesis and for non-GMP scale-up, the facility will add fit-for-purpose GMP capacity of up to 700 kg annually, with room for future expansion. This scale, combined with advanced environmental controls including ISO Class 8 clean rooms and RH-controlled areas, is designed to meet the stringent requirements of complex oligonucleotide building block production. Customer engagements are already underway, with audits planned in the coming quarters. Kilo lab validations and modified nucleotides are in progress, with GMP-grade PMO and LNA amidite validations expected to commence in CY26. Vivek Sharma, Executive Chairman, Cohance Lifesciences, said: 'Oligonucleotides are a fast-emerging therapeutic class, and innovators are seeking integrated, cost-efficient partners with scalable GMP capacity. This facility is a high-impact strategic investment that complements our pilot and scale-up assets, positioning Cohance to deliver with speed, quality, and flexibility while expanding our role in next-generation therapeutics.'
