PranaX, a Houston, USA-based biotech specializing in exosome-based regenerative therapies, has appointed Phillip Maderia as its new chief executive as it seeks to expand its pipeline and establish a stronger foothold in the biopharmaceutical market.
Mr Maderia, who previously led the exosome manufacturing business at Swiss contract development and manufacturing organization Lonza (SIX: LONN), brings over 30 years of experience in biopharmaceutical manufacturing.
At Lonza, he oversaw the construction of the company’s first large-scale GMP exosome manufacturing facility and managed a $12 million operation. His tenure also included securing the intellectual property of Codiak BioSciences, a pioneer in exosome therapeutics that faced financial challenges despite its early leadership in the field.
