Piscataway-based biopharma firm, Kashiv BioSciences, has appointed Viet Nguyen as Chief Operating Officer and Arlene Wolny as Senior Vice President of Regulatory Affairs.
Nguyen has two decades of leadership experience, with expertise in building high-performing teams, scaling complex operations, and driving commercial readiness across multiple therapeutic modalities.
Nguyen will oversee manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and engineering across global operations, supporting Kashiv’s next phase of growth and operational scale.
Prior to joining Kashiv, he spent a decade in international leadership roles across Singapore, China, and Switzerland with leading global organizations, including Genentech, Roche, Merck Group, and Bayer Corp.
Wolny brings extensive global regulatory experience in shaping regulatory pathways, navigating complex approval environments, enabling faster development timelines, and ensuring strong life cycle management for approved products. She will manage those duties at Kashiv.
She previously held senior roles at Biocon Biologics, Sandoz, Novartis, and Roche and has worked extensively abroad.
In October, Simtra BioPharma Solutions acquired a 65-acre property nearby Parsippany with more than 300,000 square feet of available space for future development. Plans for this campus include installing at least six additional isolator filling lines.
