Despite the effectiveness of anti-retroviral therapy (ART) in significantly improving health, quality of life and reducing mortality among HIV-positive individuals, new research shows that persistent infections may be due to the ability of the virus to take refuge in distinct subsets of immune T cells.

Since then, the breadth and scope of the study has been expanded twice to investigate additional models for increasingly complex studies that aim to better inform decision-making at an earlier stage of drug discovery, gain deeper mechanistic insights to refine in vivo study assay design and reduce requirements for animal models.

Autologous therapies are characterized as a circular supply chain; the patient’s own sample starts the supply chain, and it is then subjected to ex-vivo modifications with the resulting therapy administered back to that same patient. What are the general differences in the supply chain of CGT vs. traditional clinical trials?

According to a recent review published in Nature , as of April 2022 almost 1,800 active cell therapy clinical trials were listed in ClinicalTrials.gov, a 33 percent increase from 2021. The rapidly expanding landscape of cell therapy trials has put an operational strain on many clinical sites due to limited resources and infrastructure. “In

However, over the last few decades, it has been widely accepted that interaction between the tumour and host immune response plays a critical role in regulating tumour biology and hence its progression. The number of new cases recorded between 2016 and 2018 was 375,400, with 167,142 deaths caused by cancer between 2017 and 2019.

Current research is focused on designing CRISPR-enhanced CAR T cells that are resistant to immunosuppressive cytokines such as transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) 2 , programmed cell death protein (PD-1) 3 , or other negative T cell regulators 4 (CTLA-4, LAG-3, and TIM-3), thus improving anti-tumour functions.

A life-changing moment came for Dr. Leaving academia for industry is a route that academic scientists and professors did not traditionally pursue in the past due to perceived differences in skillsets, experiences and even associated stigmas. The journey first starts with the decision to make the switch. Key Moments.

Dr Amber Miller, Flow Cytometry Scientist, Fortis Life Sciences, says flow cytometry techniques can help our understanding of cancer associated fibroblasts but there is still work to be done. CAFs are critical regulators of desmoplasia characteristic of this cancer, yet they are poorly characterised. Elyada et al.
