🎯 New Article: Designing Cell Therapy Analytical Programs for Regulatory Success 👉 Featuring insights from Roger Herr, PhD, Director of Analytical Development at Kincell Bio As more cell therapies move through accelerated regulatory pathways, CMC and analytical teams are feeling the pressure of compressed timelines, tighter budgets, and rising FDA expectations. But cutting corners early often leads to costly redevelopment, comparability challenges, and delayed clinical progress. In our latest article, Roger Herr, PhD, shares practical guidance on how innovators can build strong, phase-appropriate analytical strategies that stand up to regulatory scrutiny and support long-term program success. #CellTherapy #AnalyticalDevelopment #CDMO #AdvancedTherapies #Article #Pharmaceutical

Kincell Bio is Proud to co-host this event with Ori Biotech and eXmoor Pharma, The technology and strategy matter; but Gary & Meg’s story is the north star. Thank you everyone who joined us for a meaningful night, and to fellow panelists for candid insights on what it takes to have CGT success.
Earlier this autumn, we curated a panel of industry experts in Boston to answer the question: what does success in CGT really look like? Led by our CEO, Jason C. Foster, the panel “The CGT Success Blueprint: Strategic Collaboration, Best-of-Breed Technology, and Scientific Excellence” featured insightful input from Bruce Thompson, (Kincell Bio), Lucy Foley (eXmoor Pharma), Aaron Vernon (Quell Therapeutics) and Dr. Magdi Elsallab (Mass General Cancer Center). Their key takeaways: 1. Flexibility and control matter. Best-of-breed platforms give developers the freedom to choose the right tools for each step, while protecting critical biology. 2. Commercial success starts early. Early development decisions shape timelines, cost of goods, and investor confidence. Scalability must be built-in from the start, not bolted on. 3. Automation is no longer optional. Reducing variability and labor dependence, while increasing throughput, is essential to reach real-world scale. 4. Collaboration is key. Academic Medical Centers, CDMOs, and therapy developers each play a critical role in building a manufacturing ecosystem that can evolve with the science. We were also honored to hear from Gary Fey and his wife Meg Lindsay, whose powerful story highlighted the real-world impact of CAR T-cell therapy in the treatment of multiple myeloma – and reinforced why we do what we do. Evenings like this remind us why we’re here: to build the systems, partnerships, and technology that will deliver on the promise of CGT 2.0, at scale, and bring advanced therapies to more patients, faster.
