Cincinnati Children’s Applied Gene and Cell Therapy
Cost $60,000,000
Size 110,000 SF
Since 2003, the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC) Translational Core Laboratory (TCL) has played a critical role in advancing research innovations into patient care, with expertise in manufacturing and testing cell and gene therapy clinical trials. Building on TCL’s success, CCHMC is now developing an Applied Gene and Cell Therapy Center.
The new center will be located at a renovated auto parts distribution facility in Sharonville, Ohio. The upgraded warehouse will include a Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) facility designed to meet FDA CFR Title 21 requirements, supporting the production of innovative drugs and biologics for clinical trials. These therapies will target cancer, blood disorders, and genetic conditions. Part of the building will house the Applied Gene and Cell Therapy Center, while the remaining space will function as a supply chain distribution hub for Cincinnati Children’s three hospitals and over 40 additional locations.
Scope of the project includes:
- Program of Requirements (POR)
- User Requirement Specifications
- Process Flow Diagrams
- Conceptual Architectural Floor Plans
- Equipment Plans
- MEP System Narrative
- Building Code Analysis
- Conceptual Grade Cost Estimate
