CAR-T cells targeting IL-1RAP produced in a closed semiautomatic system are ready for the first phase I clinical investigation in humans

Abstract

We demonstrated that our IL-1RAP CAR-T cell preclinical GMP-like production process meets standard regulatory requirements in terms of CAR-T cell number, subpopulation phenotype and cytotoxic functionality. Our CAR-T cell production process was validated and can be used to produce medicinal IL-1RAP CAR-T cells for the first phase I clinical trial.
