metabion and BioSpring join forces on therapeutic oligonucleotides

Two of the leading independent German manufacturers of nucleic acids are joining forces on special projects to better serve the growing oligo therapeutic market and assist the discovery path with a seamless supply of Custom GMP grade therapeutic oligonucleotides. 

November 11 2025

The long road of custom oligo therapeutic medicine discovery, beginning at research to final therapeutic product, is often hampered by the inability to reliably source oligonucleotides in varying quantities from a single, seamless source of production. This gap can be crippling to projects and create uncertainty for the future of promising drug development plans. 

By integrating metabion at the early stages of therapeutic oligonucleotide development and transitioning to BioSpring for scale-up and commercialisation, customers benefit from a structured and uninterrupted workflow. The collaboration allows early-stage innovators to begin with metabion’s focused support in candidate screening and lead discovery seamlessly moving into BioSpring’s robust infrastructure when the project demands it — ensuring continuity, reliability, and speed from the start.

The experience, including regulatory support, and industry leading production capacities of the two independent companies offer this unique compliment to meet the R&D, Clinical & Commercial Phase target market of Germany, Europe and worldwide.
