Protein Sciences / Pfizer Pearl River NY

Lease of Pfizer’s 78,000 SF biologics drug substance facility in Pearl River, NY by Protein Sciences to manufacture its Flublok® influenza vaccine

The Challenge

Protein Sciences engaged PharmaBioSource Realty to identify facilities to support its biologics drug substance capacity requirements for the manufacture of its novel influenza vaccine, Flublok®.

The Solution

PharmaBioSource Realty identified a suitable facility on Pfizer’s Pearl River, New York campus available for lease. The 78,000-square-foot facility housed a 2,000L fermenter that could support Protein Sciences’ Baculovirus Expression Vector System (BEVS) production. A multi-year lease was executed.

Services provided by the PharmaBioSource Realty team:

  • Site identification
  • Facility evaluation
  • Lease negotiation

The Results

With modifications to the facility and equipment, the site was brought online in just 10 weeks. This saved Protein Sciences millions of dollars and years of time to market over constructing a new facility.
