This opinion paper seeks to introduce a disruptive model to accelerate product and process development in the biopharmaceutical industry, especially for vaccines. This model is based on the minimum valuable product and process (MVaP&P), a new concept that allows for adaptation and acceleration, which would enable agility in the way biopharmaceuticals are developed. This article discusses how the MVaP&P approach would make it is possible to discipline and structure biopharmaceutical development to achieve a phase-appropriate and strategy-aligned product in the fastest time possible.
