CAR-T/CAR-NK Cells Generation Service

OverviewServiceWorkflowQuality ControlCustomizationFAQ

Overview

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) technology is redefining cancer treatment by empowering the immune system to specifically target and eliminate tumor cells. By genetically modifying T cells or Natural Killer (NK) cells with synthetic receptors, CAR-T and CAR-NK therapies offer precise tumor recognition, resulting in remarkable clinical outcomes, particularly in hematological malignancies like B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and certain lymphomas. These cell therapies are now considered the fourth therapeutic modality in oncology, joining surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy.

The standard manufacturing process includes the isolation of patient- or donor-derived immune cells, CAR gene integration via viral vectors, clonal expansion under strict conditions, and final delivery back into patients. However, high production costs, complex handling, long turnaround times, and safety concerns such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) or neurotoxicity limit accessibility.

There is, therefore, a growing need in both academic and industrial sectors for reliable, cost-effective, and highly reproducible CAR-T/CAR-NK manufacturing platforms that meet stringent research and preclinical development standards.

FAQ

Q1: Can Creative Biogene help me design a novel CAR construct if I only have a target antigen in mind?

Absolutely. Our team of molecular immunologists and structural biologists will work with you to select or humanize the appropriate scFv or nanobody, design a CAR construct with optimal hinge, transmembrane, and intracellular signaling domains, and ensure compatibility with your target cell type. We also validate the binding efficacy in silico and in vitro.

Q2: What are the quality and reproducibility guarantees for the CAR-T/NK products?

Each cell product undergoes a stringent QC process, including identity confirmation, viability assessment, CAR expression levels, endotoxin and mycoplasma testing, and functionality via cytotoxicity assays. We use standardized protocols and maintain detailed batch records to ensure consistency across replicates and orders.

Q3: How do you ensure biosafety in your CAR-modified cells, especially regarding insertional mutagenesis?

We use third-generation self-inactivating (SIN) lentiviral vectors with enhanced safety profiles, and we test for replication-competent viruses. All vector backbones are rigorously validated for insertional safety. For clinical transitions, we can assist with integration site analysis and additional biosafety evaluations.

Q4: Can Creative Biogene support large-scale production or GMP transition?

Yes. While our core facility supports preclinical-grade production, we work closely with GMP-compliant partners and CDMOs to offer scale-up solutions and regulatory-grade production pipelines. We can provide tech transfer packages and documentation for seamless GMP transition.

Q5: Do you provide support for regulatory documentation or IND filing assistance?

While we do not directly submit regulatory documents, we support clients by providing detailed protocols, batch records, QC results, CMC documentation outlines, and consultative assistance for IND-enabling studies.
