“Lilly is creating and testing neutralizing antibodies that target the viral spike protein that SARS-CoV-2 uses to gain entry into host cells. These treatments are specifically designed to treat COVID-19 and require specialized people — such as scientists and engineers — and nearly 300,000 square feet of manufacturing space, 40 miles of piping, 50 processing vessels, and several controlled environments such as cleanrooms to manufacture.
It can take up to 90 days to manufacture a single batch of the active pharmaceutical ingredient and drug product for a neutralizing antibody for COVID-19. This is due to the highly complex manufacturing processes, with carefully controlled conditions and numerous quality and safety checks.” Source: Eli Lilly
