| Summary: | Intra-experimental factor setting shifts in intensified design of experiments (iDoE) enhance understanding of bioproduction processes by capturing their dynamics and are thus essential to fulfill quality by design (QbD) ambitions. Determining the influence of process history on the cellular responses, often referred to as memory effect, is fundamental for accurate predictions. However, the current iDoE designs do not explicitly consider nor quantify the influence of process history. Therefore, we propose the one-factor-multiple-columns (OFMC)-format for iDoE planning. This format explicitly describes stage-dependent factor effects and potential memory effects as across-stage interactions (ASIs) during a bioprocess. To illustrate its utility, an OFMC-iDoE that considers the characteristic growth phases during a fed-batch process was planned. Data were analyzed using ordinary least squares (OLS) regression as previously described via stage-wise analysis of the time series and compared to direct modeling of end-of-process outcomes enabled by the OFMC-format. This article aims to provide the reader with a framework on how to plan and model iDoE data and highlights how the OFMC-format simplifies planning, and data acquisition, eases modeling and gives a straightforward quantification of potential memory effects. With the proposed OFMC-format, optimization of bioprocesses can leverage which factor settings are most beneficial in which state of the mammalian culture and thus elevate performance and quality to the next level. |
