Janssen and Fate Collaborate to Develop iPSC-derived CAR-T and NK Therapies
Here is a brief preview of this blast: On Thursday, April 2, Fate Therapeutics announced a multi-year collaboration with Janssen to develop and commercialize new off-the-shelf CAR-NK and CAR-T cell products derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). As part of the agreement, Fate will apply its iPSC product platform and Janssen will contribute proprietary antigen-binding domains for up to four tumor-associated antigen targets. Below, FENIX provides highlights from the deal and analysis of how Janssen's ability to develop off-the-shelf cell therapies, potentially also targeting solid tumors, could strengthen the company's position in the cell therapy field.
