Development of a High Yielding Bioprocess for a Pre-fusion RSV Subunit Vaccine
Maxcyte Electroporation helped researchers at the NIH to engineer DG44 cells for a challenging co-expression of two proteins in a respiratory virus vaccine candidate. The resultant clone exhibited high protein stability and expression, producing a 10-fold boost in potentially therapeutic antibodies in just 14 days.

CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) engineered T/natural killer (NK)-cell therapies can result in durable clinical responses in B-cell malignancies. However, CAR-based immunotherapies have been much less successful in solid cancers, in part due to “on-target off-tumor” toxicity related to expression of target tumor antigens on normal tissue.

In the next 5–10 years we could see cellular-based pharmaceuticals, or cell therapy, meeting the unmet medical needs of thousands of people. How this therapy will meet these needs depends on the ability of researchers and manufacturers to successfully and cost effectively manufacture and deliver engineered cell-based therapeutic products that are safe and exhibit enhanced potency with resulting durable, meaningful clinical efficacy.
