Application
Description
Example
Monoclonal Antibody Production
Development and production of antibodies that target specific proteins or cells to treat diseases such as cancer and autoimmune disorders.
An antibody targeting HER2-positive breast cancer cells has significantly improved patient outcomes.
Biosimilar Development
Creation of biologics that are highly similar to already approved drugs, ensuring comparable efficacy and safety.
A biosimilar version of an anti-HER2 antibody was developed to reduce the cost of HER2-positive cancer treatments.
Vaccine Production
Production of viral vaccines using cell-based systems to grow viruses or viral proteins.
The use of Vero cells for producing the polio vaccine and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines highlights the importance of cell-based vaccine manufacturing.
Gene Therapy
Using cells to produce viral vectors or gene-editing components for delivering therapeutic genes to patients.
CAR-T cell therapies, which involve modifying a patient's T-cells to target cancer, exemplify the role of gene therapy in personalized medicine.
