Umoja Biopharma Entered into a Research Collaboration with IASO Biotherapeutics to Develop Off-the-Shelf Therapies for Hematological Malignancies
Shots:
- The collaboration will combine Umoja’s iCIL platform & IASO’s chimeric Ag receptors to develop off-the-shelf therapies for hematological malignancies with an increasing patient accessibility
- For the differentiation & expansion of iCILs, a novel class of innate lymphocytes with potent anti-tumor activity, Umoja's iPSC-based allogeneic cell therapy platform uses its ShRED manufacturing process
- IASO aims to make its innovative therapies available to a larger global population by using its strong capabilities in screening CARs through its fully-human Ab discovery platform (IMARS). IASO also has an in-house GMP facility for plasmid, virus vector & CAR-T cell manufacturing with a ~90% success rate
