From breast to bone: Refining metastasis drug discovery with a novel organ-on-a-chip device
Understanding invasive cancer progression and metastasis formation are among the core open questions in cancer research. However, the limitations of current models lead to high failure rates in drug development. An EU-funded consortium has designed an organ-on-a-chip approach that could deliver new insights. In metastasis, circulating tumor cells spontaneously shed from the primary site to […]
How efficient lab inventory management can become a driver for success
Lab inventory management is often not the first priority of biotech companies trying to stay ahead in a competitive environment. But according to a report released by the EU commission, the hidden costs of inefficient lab practices are estimated to exceed €10B every year. Novel lab inventory management solutions can thus reduce costs and push […]
Streamlining CAR-T cell therapy manufacturing: a platform approach
Chimeric antigen receptor-T cell (CAR-T) therapy is an exciting treatment modality for blood cancers that do not respond to standard treatment. But manufacturing these CAR-T therapies brings challenges. How can life science companies overcome them to minimize costs and improve patient access? In patients with cancer for whom chemotherapy proves unsuccessful, CAR-T therapy may provide […]
Navigating cell and gene therapy manufacturing with a long-term partnership
Cell and gene therapies have proven to be promising treatments for cancers and genetic diseases, but developers face key challenges before these treatments reach patients’ bedsides. A long-term partnership with a contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) can ease the path life science companies travel from manufacturing these life-changing treatments and bringing them to the […]
Impacting vaccine development: COVID-19 and its implications for the future of vaccines
The development of COVID-19 vaccines was an unprecedented achievement at a time of urgent medical need. We explore the novel technology platforms that went into their development and consider their long-term impact on vaccine research. Ever since the first vaccine against smallpox in the late 1700s, vaccines have gained a reputation as a critical tool […]
Using the power of proteomics to predict immunotherapy responses in melanoma and beyond
Next-generation proteomics has a vital role to play in the search for new biomarkers of immunotherapy response. Recent studies in melanoma presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress highlight how these insights have the potential to transform cancer care. The recent success of immunotherapies that manipulate the patient’s immune system to recognize […]
