The State of Biologics Testing 2026
The success of modern biologics depends not only on groundbreaking science but on the robustness, speed, and credibility of the testing programs that support them. Across the industry, long established testing paradigms are being re-examined as new modalities emerge, regulatory agencies promote innovation and animal reduction, and development timelines continue to compress.
Charles River publishes The State of Biologics Testing 2026 to help document and interpret this moment of change. Based on Charles River’s deep involvement in biologics testing worldwide, and informed by interviews with leaders across biopharma, quality, and regulatory functions, the report captures how organizations are navigating the transition—from traditional compendial methods to advanced technologies, digital tools, and risk-based approaches.
This report is intended to inform discussion and decision making, not to prescribe solutions. Produced in collaboration with GEN, it reflects the collective voice of an industry adapting to new scientific and regulatory realities.

RFK Jr. claims his calendar is publicly available. We’ve been trying to get it for a year
WASHINGTON — Health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday pointed to his “publicly available calendar” as an example of his commitment to transparency and to beat back unfavorable reporting.
But no such calendar, detailing who Kennedy meets with or how he spends his time, has been released by the administration. STAT has been asking the Department of Health and Human Services for Kennedy’s calendar for more than a year, via Freedom of Information Act requests and emails to the press office.
