ScaleReady and Bio-Techne (NASDAQ: TECH) have launched G-Rex optimized ProPak™ GMP Cytokines, designed for efficient closed system cell and gene-modified cell therapy (CGT) manufacturing. The product consists of a weldable bag with liquid formulated GMP-grade cytokines (IL-7 or IL-15) for CAR-T and TCR-T cell production. Each ProPak™ contains enough cytokines to dose a 1-liter G-Rex bioreactor at 10ng/mL concentration.
This innovation aims to reduce operating costs and complexity in CGT manufacturing by simplifying the process of acquiring, storing, preparing, and administering critical reagents. The product eliminates the need for cytokine reconstitution, enabling a hands-off ballroom style G-Rex manufacturing approach.
ScaleReady, in collaboration with Wilson Wolf Manufacturing, Bio-Techne (NASDAQ: TECH), and CellReady, has awarded the inaugural G-Rex® Grant of $300,000 to Dr. Steve Feldman of Stanford Medicine's Laboratory for Cell and Gene Medicine (LCGM). The grant will support the development of Stanford's G-Rex platform for CAR-T cell therapy manufacturing.
Stanford Medicine LCGM plans to use the grant to:
- Deploy a G-Rex-centric manufacturing process in an upcoming Phase 1 trial for GPC2+ pediatric neuroblastoma and medulloblastoma
- Implement Bio-Techne's Ella™ platform as a potency assay for final drug product release
- Collaborate with CellReady to create efficient G-Rex master batch records
- Develop a novel closed-system T cell purification technology
The G-Rex Grant Program is a $20M initiative by ScaleReady to advance cell and gene-modified cell therapy development and manufacturing.
