  • Publication number: 20250208103
    Abstract: The present inventions provide a concise panel of chromatography-based stability-indicating methods for evaluating in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA under various conditions, including varying types and degrees of stress conditions, as part of a forced degradation study. The inventions also provide that addition of EDTA to the mRNAs prior to heat exposure reduces the extent of mRNA degradation, that the transcripts are fragmenting via a divalent metal-ion mediated pathway. The inventions also provide the application of the methods to evaluate the critical quality attributes (CQAs) of mRNAs as well as to detect intrinsic process and product related impurities.

  • Publication number: 20250002992
    Abstract: The inventions provide methods for characterizing messenger RNAs (mRNA) and polyadenylation on mRNAs. The disclosed inventions are developed for characterizing mRNA and poly(A) tail length on mRNA samples. These inventions can be used in release testing of mRNA drug substrate (DS) or drug product (DP), and can provide direct read-out of mRNA integrity and poly(A) tail length. The inventions further provide methods of analyzing the condition of mRNAs in samples. Characterized mRNA samples obtained by all of the inventive methods also are part of the inventions disclosed herein.
