Turning Hope Into Reality™
Accelerating the development and manufacturing of innovative therapies to bring more treatments to more patients.
Pioneers in Cell and Gene Therapy
Andelyn Biosciences is a gene therapy contract development and manufacturing organization born out of Nationwide Children's Hospital and based in Columbus, OH, where the first FDA-approved systemic gene therapy was discovered and worked on by members of our current team.
What's Behind Our Name?
Our values are founded in our origin story.
The name “Andelyn” is a hybrid of two gene therapy pioneering patients who participated in pivotal Phase I clinical trials at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Andrew received the first U.S. investigational gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy in 2006. Evelyn received an experimental gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy in 2015.
“Andelyn” combines their names, representing all the families who have courageously participated in the research that make today’s gene therapies possible, and inspires our vision of Turning Hope Into Reality™.
Partner with us for the advancement of life-altering genetic therapies for patients, and for shaping a healthier world.
Substantiated by decades of pioneering research, closeness to patients, and the production of over 450 GMP batches of viral vector therapies for rare diseases, along with the origin of a currently approved gene therapy, Andelyn Biosciences is a proven and reliable full-service cell and gene therapy CDMO with deep scientific and manufacturing expertise and a track record of success.
Advancing Discoveries. Manufacturing Cures.
Acknowledging the value of the experience and capabilities developed over the years, Nationwide Children’s Hospital spun off Andelyn as a separate for-profit CDMO in January 2020 to serve gene therapy researchers and developers with dedicated facilities and personnel, tailored to meet the rigorous demands required to bring these critical therapies to the patients who need them.

Plasmid Manufacturing
We manufacture GMP as well as research and toxicology grade plasmids which support pilot, proof-of-concept, dose confirmation and IND-enabling toxicology studies.
Process Development
We use a set of rigorous process development guidelines for process characterization, DoE and QbD principles to establish, implement and improve our clients’ viral vector manufacturing processes.
Laboratory Services
The thoroughness of our analytical development and quality control underpins our commitment to advancing gene therapy, ultimately ensuring the highest quality, safety, and efficacy of our products for those who depend on them the most.
Technology Transfer
Andelyn has extensive experience in both analytical and process tech transfers, including everything from transferring external assays to and moving and installing entire processes across facilities.
AAV Curator™ Platform
Andelyn's AAV Curator™ Platform is built on configurability and ensures the end process is curated to your program's specific needs. Our modular approach uses configurable materials and methods optimized for your process requirements and reinforced with data and analytics.
AAV Curator™ Platform
Your medical indication, patient population, and gene of interest are unique, so the promise of a one-size-fits-all or plug-and-play platform is not so easily realized. Our approach to platforming gene therapy processes from preclinical to GMP manufacturing takes all of the variables into account and evaluates them against your specific requirements.
Our knowledge, expertise, and experience are the content at Andelyn: we evaluate and configure each program with Optimization-By-Design™ in mind. The end result is a refined and tailored manufacturing process curated to meet your exacting specifications.
Configurable
Modular platform with assessment and strategy adapted to each program drives faster optimization.
Optimization Toolkit
QbD guidelines and DoEs with lean, step-wise focus on process understanding maximizes program efficiency.
Data Driven
Historical data leveraged to achieve high yield and high-quality products with predictable performance.
Our Facilities
Our three facilities in Columbus, OH, are meticulously designed to support your project's evolution from concept to reality. We're not just about meeting today's needs but also about anticipating the demands of the future with ample capacity to support our clients today and the ability to expand our operations as needed.
Explore the unique role each of our purpose-built centers plays in advancing gene therapies, setting new industry standards for excellence and partnership.
At Our Core
Our passion for patients and rare diseases stems from our history at Nationwide Children's Hospital and we've carried that spirit of community involvement with us to Andelyn. Many of us have observed patient dosings and seeing them thrive after receiving the life-altering treatments that we have manufactured motivates us all do to everything we can to Turn Hope Into Reality™.
Andelyn is proud to be in the vanguard of the strong and growing biotechnology ecosystem in our native Ohio and we're dedicated to advocating and volunteering for local charities and initiatives that align with our core values.
