“Our investment in this new capacity broadens Regis’ capabilities and our flexibility to support the growing need for US-based custom pharma services,” said Joe Miller, PhD, chief technology officer at Regis Technologies, in the press release. “The desire to reduce supply chain risk, ensure quality, and maintain intellectual property is driving a surging interest in domestic on-boarding of API development and manufacturing. This timely expansion allows us to meet this demand, enabling our scientists to support additional API projects as our customers advance their novel drugs to market.”
