The Plan workflow

Define the climb before the team leaves base camp.

Plan is where every Summit program is shaped — the molecule scrutinised, the quality attributes argued, the control strategy built, and the Plan of Action prepared. Risk doesn't get added later. It's modelled from the first sequence.

Liability assessment

Find every liability in the molecule before the molecule finds you.

Summit Insights can read heavy and light chain variable-region sequences, identify CDRs, and surface sequence-based liabilities that drive CMC risk — including deamidation, isomerization, oxidation, glycosylation motifs, aggregation flags, and immunogenicity indicators. Every finding shown here is mapped to a specific Kabat-numbered residue and tied to a CQA concern.

  • Current view is intentionally scoped to VH/VL variable domains
  • CDR hotspots are annotated with Kabat numbering and liability mechanism
  • Findings connect to CQA concerns that can feed the program risk register
  • Constant-region and full-structure assessments remain separate app surfaces

One liability finding. Every downstream surface updated automatically.

Automatic risk amplification

One finding ripples through the whole program — without anyone re-keying it.

A liability isn't just a row in a spreadsheet. Summit propagates it: into the affected CQAs, the CPPs that drive them, the activities needed to control them, and the timeline impact that follows. The Plan of Action reshapes itself, with every change attributable to its source.

  • Liabilities auto-bind to CQAs via mechanism mapping
  • CQAs amplify into the CPPs and unit operations that govern them
  • Activities are added, extended, or flagged based on residual risk
  • Risk register, scoring, and timeline are kept in lockstep — always
