CAR T-REX Consortium brings together experts in Cell and Gene therapies for General Assembly at CiQUS, Universidade de Santiago de Compostela (Spain)
📢 Press Release Available Partners from CAR T-REX recently met at CiQUS - Center for Research in Biological Chemistry and Molecular Materials, Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, Spain, for the first in-person meeting. The CAR T-REX consortium brings together a multidisciplinary group of internationally recognised experts and companies across Europe and Israel. The project started in June 2023 and runs for 4 years. CAR T-REX aims to build novel auto-regulated genetic circuits controlled by microRNAs in immune cells, employ a novel high-performance non-viral gene delivery platform (TraffikGene®), select and benchmark the best-performing circuits in preclinical settings, as well as execute GMP-like manufacturing runs for the final CAR T-cell product. Overall, the CAR T-REX consortium expects to lay the foundation of an improved technology with potential for significant scientific and societal impact. Marisa Juanes from CiQUS highlights: "Welcoming the CAR T-REX consortium to CiQUS was a remarkable experience. The assembly not only highlighted the collaborative spirit among our distinguished members but also set the stage for groundbreaking advancements in CAR T-cell therapies." Rui A. Sousa, CEO of Stemmatters & Coordinator, adds: “The General Assembly of the CAR T-REX project facilitated important scientific discussions to maximise the impact of the consortium to tackle the treatment of solid tumours. During the next phase of the project, we will be working together to integrate the partners’ technology and expertise into the development of a novel CAR T-cell therapy.” Check out the full press release on the CAR T-REX project’s website 👇 https://lnkd.in/d9_5nqJm #pressrelease #partners #collaboration #cartrex #innovation #cartcell #celltherapy #solidtumours #cancer #CGT #pathfinderopen #EIC #horizoneurope
