Sumario: | Engineered T cell therapies have shown significant clinical success. However, current manufacturing capabilities present a challenge in bringing these therapies to patients. Furthermore, the cost of development and manufacturing is still extremely high due to complexity of the manufacturing process. Increased automation can improve quality and reproducibility while reducing costs through minimizing hands-on operator time, allowing parallel manufacture of multiple products, and reducing the complexity of technology transfer. In this article, we describe the results of a strategic alliance between GSK and Miltenyi Biotec to develop a closed, automated manufacturing process using the CliniMACS Prodigy for autologous T cell therapy products that can deliver a high number of cells suitable for treating solid tumor indications and compatible with cryopreserved apheresis and drug product. We demonstrate the ability of the T cell Transduction – Large Scale process to deliver a significantly higher cell number than the existing process, achieving 1.5 × 10(10) cells after 12 days of expansion, without affecting other product attributes. We demonstrate successful technology transfer of this robust process into three manufacturing facilities. |
