Under a license agreement, Biopredic will leverage Preci’s expertise and production capacity in sourcing primary hepatocytes, and combine with its own IP and know-how in cell pooling. The partnership will provide DMPK researchers access to large batches of high-performing suspended pooled hepatocytes with extended longevity from multiple donors.
The future of biotechnology holds immense promise, with continued advancements driving innovation and progress across various sectors. From gene editing and synthetic biology to biopharmaceuticals and beyond, the possibilities are endless. By staying informed, collaborating with industry leaders, and leveraging cutting-edge technologies, we can harness the power of biotechnology to address some of the most pressing challenges facing humanity.
"In a medical first, we have now dosed our first patient in a clinical trial using their own lymph nodes as living bioreactors to regenerate an ectopic organ," said Dr. Michael Hufford, Co-Founder and CEO of LyGenesis. "This therapy will potentially be a remarkable regenerative medicine milestone by helping patients with ESLD grow new functional ectopic livers in their own body. If our study is successful and we obtain FDA approval, our allogenic cell therapy could enable one donated liver to treat many dozens of ESLD patients, which could help to tilt the current organ supply-demand imbalance in favor of patients."
The relationship between pharmaceutical companies and CDMOs is fundamentally collaborative, fostering an environment of innovation. By partnering with a CDMO, pharmaceutical firms can access a wide array of technologies and expertise that might otherwise be beyond their reach.
Serum Detect is developing diagnostic tests, using standard liquid biopsy samples, that complement and enhance existing screening techniques for early detection of cancer.
