???????????????? ????????: AZ makes $1Billion In Vivo Cell Therapy Acquisition ?? AstraZeneca has strengthened its cell therapy portfolio with the $1B acquisition of EsoBiotec ($425M upfront), a cutting-edge clinical Belgian company pioneering in vivo immune cell engineering. ?? EsoBiotec’s ENaBL platform uses targeted lentiviruses to engineer immune cells directly inside the patient’s body, enabling faster, off-the-shelf treatments for liquid/solid tumours and autoimmune through a simple IV injection. ?????? ???????? ?????????????????????? ??????????????: - Further validates the role of in vivo cell therapies. - Demonstrates AZ commitment to expanding its cell therapy portfolio. - In vivo therapies COULD offer quicker access to treatments, showing promise in making them more accessible and cost-effective for patients. Ultimately, it's exciting to see large pharma making its second CT acquisition in a week, with AstraZeneca emphasising the exciting future of cell therapies. This steady momentum is a strong endorsement of CGTs What a great way to start the week everyone! #celltherapy #oncology #biotech #CGTweekly
Thanks for sharing this news. In vivo therapies could be major step forward in making innovative oncology and immune therapies more scalable, efficient, and patient-friendly - ultimately improving access. Looking forward to seeing how this technology evolves to benefit more patients.
Thanks for sharing, Spencer. This signals a bold leap towards faster and more accessible treatments.
Thanks for sharing, Spencer!
Not only is it one of the very few cell therapy M&A deals in the last 12 months, it is also the 5th-largest announced, acconrding to our databases at PharmCube. Here's to more exciting news in the sector!
I am curious to learn more about in vivo use of Lentiviruses on cell therapy! How do we control the integration and copy numbers?
Any other list of companies doing in vivo Cell therapy ? Spencer Knight or J Valencia S ? A list would be hugely appreciated ??
Which big pharma do you think of ? Last week ?
Smart analysis
Interesting! Thanks for sharing Spencer Knight .
