The OrganaBio method for cultivation of a highly recallable leukapheresis donor pool

OrganaBio and its wholly-owned leukapheresis collection subsidiary, HemaCenter, have designed processes and procedures to curate and maintain a highly recallable donor pool. Access to robust, reliable cellular starting materials is critical to the success of a cell therapy program, and donor recallability is one of the largest challenges facing cell therapy developers who rely on […]
A Comparison of Lymphocytes from Adult Peripheral Blood versus Umbilical Cord Blood

With the rapid advancement of cell therapies, there is a demand for cellular starting materials that are robust, reproducible, well-characterized, and clinically relevant. Many adoptive cell therapies are based on lymphocytes and hematopoietic stem cells. Whether it’s allogeneic CAR-T or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), clinical development and commercial scale up and scale out require a high quantity of high quality cells […]
The Story of T Lymphocytes

Some say that CAR-T (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cell) revolutionized cell therapy and transformed the manufacturing technologies of the industry. Following the approval and success of the CD19 CAR-T, many more tumor-specific molecules are being explored and targeted by CAR technology. The most exciting developments are allogeneic CAR-T which may be easier to manufacture in […]
