Gene and Cell Therapies

Gene and Cell Therapies: Principles of Pharmaceutical Development

explores increasing interest in gene and cell therapies following powerful demonstrations of their capability to treat rare genetic disorders, advanced cancers, and regenerate or repair tissues.

Sections cover the design of viral vectors, oncolytic viruses, ribonucleic acid cancer vaccines, and autologous and allogeneic cell therapies, along with impacts on their pharmaceutical development.

Advances in molecular and cell biology that have led to efficacious and safe gene and cell therapies are also covered, including their relationship to the process and analytical developments that ensure quality.

scope and style, along with included case studies, learning points, and lecture slides will allow non-specialists to develop a foundational understanding, while new concepts urge further advancements.

Although these new, advanced medicines are continually being improved upon, their complex manufacture remains a key obstacle to increasing patient access.
