About 


Our Mission 


Cellengene is biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development for CAR-T therapy targeting refractory solid tumors. Our goal is to develop 
"Off-the-Shelf" CAR-T therapy that can selectively attack cancer cells  using immune cell derived from healthy people. In order to cure pancreatic cancer, we plan to use gammadelta T cell and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) platform. Furthermore, we will be enabled to cure ovarian cancer, mesothelioma and will become a global company to help many patients who are suffering from refractory cancers.
We believe next generation CAR-T therapy will give hope to many patients and lead them to have happier and healthier life.

 CAR-T Therapy



CAR-T therapy is one of the immunotherapy, including genetically modified T cell expressing unique receptor "Chimeric Antigenic Receptor" .  This unique receptor binds to certain protein on patient's cancer cells and selectively attack them.  In current situation, FDA approval were granted to 6 types of treatment targeting hematological malignancies, including “Kymriah” from Novartis and “Yescarta & Tecartus” from Gilead, "Breyanzi & Abecma" from BMS, "Carvykti" from Johnson & Johnson.  There are many ongoing researches, developments and clinical stages on CAR-T therapy but no succeed case appears yet. 

 


In general, there are two ways to manufacture CAR-T therapy.  Autologous CAR-T  is personalized therapy that does not incur GvHD.  Because it is  derived from patient's own cell and reinjected to the patient. However, manufacturing process takes at least 3 weeks and costs are very expensive. Allogenic CAR-T is universal therapy that require genetically engineering process and mass production is available. Manufacturing process takes approximately 1 week and costs are lower than autologous CAR-T production. Therefore, immediate injection is available for hundreds of patients. 


CAR-T Platform


 

 

 

Genome Editing Technology


Preventing GvHD and overcoming tumor microenvironment(TME) are key factors to develop allogenic CAR-T therapy. In order to overcome these certain problems, TCR is knockout using CRISPER/CAS9 gene editing technology and immune check receptor, PD-1, is  knockdown to induce T cell activation and attack cancer cell continuously.
