Supercharge your clinical Treg workflow with GMP-compliant cell sorting and manufacturing platforms

3d illustration T-Cells

Regulatory T (Treg) cells’ ability to suppress immune responses has made them a promising target for immunotherapy in a number of clinical applications, including the treatment of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after haploid stem cell transplantation (HSCT), management of autoimmune diseases like Type 1 diabetes, and many others.

A prerequisite for such applications of Tregs is the ability to effectively isolate and enrich them from donor material, as well as to expand them efficiently to obtain clinically relevant cell numbers in a GMP-compliant manner. Both are processes that many laboratories find challenging.

This webinar was recorded on 11 May 2021.

What will you learn?

  • Common challenges in the isolation and expansion of Tregs in clinical settings
  • How to achieve GMP-compliant isolation of CD4+CD25+CD127dim/- Tregs utilizing multiparametric cell sorting
  • How to obtain clinically relevant numbers of Tregs with an automated, GMP-compliant enrichment and expansion platform

Who may this interest?

  • Preclinical investigators working in translational settings of adoptive cell therapies
  • Commercial and academic entities running clinical trials with adoptive cell therapies
  • Flow cytometry core facility managers
