abstract: High throughput process development (HTPD) is established for time- and resource- efficient chromatographic process development. However, integration with non-chromatographic operations within a monoclonal antibody (mAb) purification train is less developed. An area of importance is the development of low pH viral inactivation (VI) that follows protein A chromatography. However, the lack of pH measurement devices at the micro-scale represents a barrier to implementation, which prevents integration with the surrounding unit operations, limiting overall process knowledge. This study is based upon the design and testing of a HTPD platform for integration of the protein A and low pH VI operations. This was achieved by using a design and simulation software before execution on an automated liquid handler. The operations were successfully translated to the micro-scale, as assessed by analysis of recoveries and molecular weight content. The integrated platform was then used as a tool to assess the effect of pH on HMWC during low pH hold. The laboratory-scale and micro-scale elution pools showed comparable HMWC across the pH range 3.2-3.7. The investigative power of the platform is highlighted by evaluating the resources required to conduct a hypothetical experiment. This results in lower resource demands and increased labor efficiency relative to the laboratory-scale. For example, the experiment can be conducted in 7 h, compared to 105 h, translating to labor hours, 3 h and 28 h for the micro-scale and laboratory-scale, respectively. This presents the opportunity for further integration beyond chromatographic operations within the purification sequence, to establish a fit-to-platform assessment tool for mAb process development.
