The site features approximately 400,000 square feet of dedicated commercial-stage biologic pharmaceutical manufacturing capacity with space to expand over time, allowing flexibility as BeiGene’s pipeline continues to mature. The facility adds to BeiGene’s late-stage research and clinical development capabilities, which have enabled the Company’s fast rise to global oncology leadership. BeiGene has built one of the industry’s deepest and most compelling oncology pipelines, addressing 80 percent of the world’s cancers with innovative modalities such as targeted degraders and antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), in addition to monoclonal antibodies and traditional small molecules. The new facility builds on BeiGene’s existing capabilities, enabling the Company to produce at scale, thereby reducing costs, ensuring supply chain resiliency, avoiding global disruptions, protecting capacity and rapidly adapting to the latest innovative modalities.
“I am excited to welcome BeiGene to Hopewell Township. BeiGene’s new cutting-edge pharmaceutical facility represents a significant investment in our community’s future. The life-saving medicines made right here in Hopewell will not only enhance global cancer treatment, but will also create good-paying, high-tech jobs and strengthen our local economy,” said Hopewell Township Mayor Courtney Peters-Manning. “We look forward to the company’s continued success in Hopewell Township.”
