CAR T-Cell Therapy PROCESS

  • Sample extraction: Patient peripheral blood is obtained.

  • Sample testing: After the sample source meets the quality standards, enter the Grade C clean workshop for purification.

  • PBMC isolation: PBMC was isolated from peripheral blood

  • T cell sorting and activation: Nanomagnetic beads were applied to separate and activate T cells in the PBMC.

  • Lentiviral transduction: CAR T cells were prepared by transduction of the corresponding titer of T cells.

  • Sample testing: Samples are tested for microorganisms, lentiviral transduction rate, and cell subsets during culture.

  • Sub-amplification: Cells were sub-amplified and generally cultured between Day10 - Day14.

  • Preparation: The qualified cells are configured as biological agents, and they will be distributed to clinical practice after all the quality inspection meets the standards.

Technology Transfer Package

  • Chemistry, manufacturing, and quality control of CD19-CAR and BCMA-CAR-modified autologous T cell production under GMP standards.

  • Chemistry, manufacturing, and quality control of CD19-CAR and BCMA-CAR-related DNA plasmids under GMP standards.

  • Chemistry, manufacturing, and quality control of CD19-CAR and BCMA-CAR lentiviral vectors under GMP standards.
