-Ascend Advanced Therapies nombra a John Chiminski como presidente y a Karen Flynn como directora independiente

ROCKVILLE, Md., 5 de marzo de 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ascend Advanced Therapies (Ascend), un socio de desarrollo de terapias avanzadas de genes a GMP, anunció hoy el nombramiento de John Chiminski y Karen Flynn como miembros no ejecutivos de su Junta Directiva. John será presidente de la Junta y EW Healthcare Partners ha designado a Karen para que esté en la junta de la empresa como una de sus representantes. Su liderazgo y su profunda experiencia en la industria serán fundamentales a medida que Ascend desarrolle sus capacidades y se posicione para el crecimiento.

John Chiminski aporta más de tres décadas de liderazgo en servicios de atención médica y farmacéutica. Fue consejero delegado de Catalent de 2009 a 2015, luego presidente y consejero delegado de 2016 a 2022, y presidente ejecutivo hasta junio de 2023. Bajo su liderazgo, Catalent se convirtió en una CDMO de nivel 1 global, amplió sus capacidades y aumentó significativamente su impacto en el ecosistema de desarrollo y fabricación de productos farmacéuticos y biotecnológicos. Actualmente es miembro de la junta directiva de QuidelOrtho (QDEL) y es asesor sénior de Abingworth.

"Ascend se encuentra en un momento crucial de su crecimiento y estoy emocionado de apoyar al equipo mientras construimos una CDMO de terapia génica de clase mundial", dijo Chiminski. "Con la estrategia, la inversión y la excelencia operativa adecuadas, Ascend está bien posicionada para ser un socio líder en terapias avanzadas".

Karen Flynn aporta más de tres décadas de experiencia comercial y operativa al directorio de Ascend. Más recientemente, fue presidenta interina de BioModalities en Catalent. Antes de este cargo, Karen ocupó los cargos de directora comercial y presidenta de Biologics en Catalent. Antes de su cargo en Catalent, se desempeñó como vicepresidenta sénior y directora comercial de West Pharmaceutical Services, y también asumió el cargo de presidenta de su negocio de sistemas de envasado farmacéutico. Actualmente, es miembro de las juntas de Quanterix Corporation (QTRX), Sotera Health Company (SHC), Stevanato Group y Germfree Laboratories, una empresa de cartera de EW Healthcare Partners.

"Con la adición de ABL, Inc. a finales de 2024 y la inversión de EW Healthcare Partners, la red Ascend puede respaldar a los clientes de terapia génica, oncolíticos, vacunas, inmunoterapia y gobierno en todas las etapas de desarrollo hasta el llenado/acabado", afirmó Flynn. "El desarrollo de procesos, la optimización y las futuras capacidades de control de calidad de GMP en Munich (Alemania) se complementan con las instalaciones de GMP en Alachua, Florida, y la sede de la empresa en Rockville, Maryland. Esta es una oferta de clase mundial diseñada para respaldar a los clientes a largo plazo".

"Estamos entusiasmados de dar la bienvenida a John y Karen a la junta directiva. John y Karen aportan un liderazgo tremendo, experiencia estratégica y conocimiento de la industria que ayudarán a dar forma al futuro aquí", afirmó Mike Stella, consejero delegado de Ascend. "Su asesoramiento y amplia experiencia serán fundamentales a medida que sigamos fabricando terapias avanzadas y ampliemos agresivamente las capacidades de la empresa".

Ascend se especializa en el desarrollo y la fabricación de terapias génicas rentables y de alta calidad. Tras la asociación con EW Healthcare Partners, que aportó su empresa de cartera, ABL, Inc., a fines de 2024, Ascend ofrece capacidades ampliadas de fabricación comercial, desarrollo de procesos, y análisis en múltiples instalaciones en EE.UU. y Europa.
