Ion exchange chromatography (IEX) is an important analytical technique for the characterization of biotechnology-derived products, such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and more recently, cell and gene therapy products such as messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and adeno-associated viruses (AAVs). This review paper first outlines the basic principles and separation mechanisms of IEX for charge variant separation of biotherapeutics, and examines the different elution modes based on salt or pH gradients. It then highlights several recent trends when applying IEX for the characterization of biotechnology-derived products, including: i) the effective use of pH gradients, ii) the improvement of selectivity by using organic solvents in the mobile phase, multi-step gradients, or by combining ion pairing and ion exchange, and iii) the increase in analytical throughput using ultra-short columns or automated screening of conditions.

Introduction: Fluvoxamine is used in children and adolescents ('youths') for treating obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) but also off-label for depressive and anxiety disorders. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between fluvoxamine dose and serum concentrations, independent correlates of fluvoxamine concentrations, and a preliminary therapeutic reference range (TRR) for youths with OCD and treatment response.
Methods: Multicenter naturalistic data of a therapeutic drug monitoring service, as well as prospective data of the 'TDM Vigil study' (EudraCT 2013-004881-33), were analyzed.

The 21st century has been particularly productive for the biopharmaceutical industry, with the introduction of several classes of innovative therapeutics, such as monoclonal antibodies and related compounds, gene therapy products, and RNA-based modalities. All these new molecules are susceptible to aggregation and fragmentation, which necessitates a size variant analysis for their comprehensive characterization. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is one of the reference techniques that can be applied.
