The "Cell Expansion Market by Product (Reagent, Media, Flow Cytometer, Centrifuge, Bioreactor), Cell Type (Human, Animal), Application (Regenerative Medicine & Stem Cell Research, Cancer & Cell-based Research), End-User, and Region - Global Forecast to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global cell expansion market is projected to reach USD 30.06 billion by 2025 from an estimated USD 14.91 billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 15.1%.

The report segments the cell expansion market based on region (Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and RoW), product (consumables and instruments), cell type (human cells and animal cells), application (regenerative medicine and stem cell research, cancer and cell-based research and other applications), and end user (research institutes, biotechnology and biopharmaceutical companies, cell banks, and other end users). The report also provides a comprehensive review of market drivers, restraints, and opportunities in the cell expansion market.

Increasing incidence of chronic diseases and government investments for cell-based research are set to drive the cell expansion market

Growth in this market is largely driven by the increasing incidence of chronic diseases, government investments for cell-based research, growing focus on personalized medicine, increasing focus on R&D for cell-based therapies, and increasing GMP certifications for cell therapy production facilities. On the other hand, ethical concerns regarding research in cell biology are expected to limit market growth to a certain extent in the coming years.

By instruments type, the cell expansion supporting equipment accounted for the fasted growing product segment of the cell expansion market

The instruments segment includes cell expansion supporting equipment, bioreactors, and automated cell expansion systems. The cell expansion supporting equipment market includes flow cytometers, cell counters and hemocytometers, centrifuges, and other supporting equipment. They are used in cell culture processes for isolating, culturing, scaling-up, and extracting biological products. These instruments are essential in laboratories and institutes for conducting research and analyzing the cell structure and function for cell therapy research.

By cell type, the human cells segment accounted for the largest share of the cell expansion market

Based on cell type, the cell expansion market is segmented into human cells and animal cells. The human cells segment includes stem cells and differentiated cells. The stem cells segment is further classified into adult stem cells, ESCs, and iPSCs. The human cells segment accounted for the larger share of the cell expansion market majorly due to the increasing investments by public and private organizations for research on human cells, growing application areas of human stem cells, and the growing incidence of diseases such as cancer.

Asia Pacific: The fastest-growing region in the cell expansion market

The Asia Pacific market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, mainly due to the increasing focus of players on emerging Asian markets, increasing incidence of chronic and infectious diseases, rising geriatric population, and government initiatives for infrastructural improvements of healthcare facilities are driving the growth of the cell expansion market in this region.

North America: the largest share of the cell expansion market

North America accounted for the largest share of the cell expansion market. The large share of this segment can primarily be attributed to the rising incidence of cancer, increasing government funding, rising research activates on stem cell therapies, growing awareness regarding advanced treatment methods, growing geriatric population, and the strong presence of industry players in the region.

Family need to raise 120K by September for lifesaving treatment for 11-year-old – Cheshire Live

The family of a brave 11-year-old Wistaston boy needs to raise 120,000 by September so he can have lifesaving treatment in Asia to stop a rare form of bone cancer returning.

Georgy Capener was diagnosed with the highly malignant Ewings Sarcoma after a fall in a friends back garden on Easter Sunday in 2018.

Since then the plucky Wistaston Church Lane pupil has undergone numerous rounds of high dose aggressive chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

As a result of the treatment he lost his right arm which has been replaced a titanium prosthesis.

Georgy went into remission in March of last year and life returned to a semblance of normality for the Crewe boy, his mum Helen, dad Richard, and sisters Ellie, 18, and Chloe, 13.

But in April this year the family were dealt another devastating blow when they learned the cancer had returned - this time in Georgys left sinus, just under his eye socket and in the back of his nose.

Helen told CheshireLive: Everything had been going really well and then there was the impact of the coronavirus pandemic so one scan [to check Georgy] was moved further on but we never got to it because he started having really painful headaches. I knew something wasnt right.

Georgys parents were told that, because of the location of the tumour, there was a chance he could lose his eyesight or suffer a stroke during the biopsy he needed.

Helen told how, at first, she didnt want him to have the biopsy, but she knew he had to.

We didnt know if he was going to come out with his eyesight or have a stroke but he came through it, she said. Hes so brave, hes been so brave throughout.

Georgy, who is a passionate Liverpool fan, is now undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy again.

The tumour cannot be removed surgically because of its location.

But the vital stem cell therapy which is essential to ensure he can live a normal, healthy life and prevent the cancer returning at a later stage costs 130,000 and is not available for Georgy on the NHS.

Helen said: After lengthy discussions with a stem cell transplant hospital in a top medical treatment centre in Thailand, we are thrilled that they are willing to accept Georgy.

The transplant will involve removing the faulty mother cell and harvesting new purified cells from a donated umbilical cord into his body to stop the cancer from returning. These procedures have very high success rates.

Georgy is due to finish his sixth and final round of chemotherapy at the beginning of September.

For the stem cell treatment to be successful the procedure would have to start immediately after that to ensure the cancer doesnt return straight away.

The family has set up a JustGiving appeal to raise the funds needed to save their little boys life. They need to raise 120,000 by the beginning of September.

Helen said: We set it up in the hope that we can raise some of this amount to help save our sons life. It is our only realistic option and, for the first time in a long time, we can be positive and see some sort of future.

If you can help please donate by visiting JustGiving here.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (PRWEB) July 29, 2020

R3 Stem Cell International is now offering patients the opportunity to receive four stem cell joint injections for only $3950. With 50 million stem cells total, patients may choose which extremities they would like treated.

Several studies have shown just how well stem cell therapy works for arthritic joints (BMC Musculoskelet Disord. 2016). At R3 International, umbilical cord tissue is obtained from a lab with a long history of accreditation and pristine safety record. The lab abides by quality assurance standards that exceed those of the FDA.

Stem cell treatment for knees in Mexico at R3 works amazingly well. Patient satisfaction surveys at the center reveal that nine out of ten patients say they would have the procedure again and recommend it to friends and family.

According to R3 CEO David Greene, MD, MBA, "The biologics don't need preservative and viability exceeds 95%. The pureness and potency truly makes the difference in outcomes. Four joints for under $4000? What we put together for patients is incredible!"

The treatment process begins with a free phone consultation with one of R3's licensed, experienced stem cell doctors. Because the treatment includes 50 million stem cells, four joints may be included. The dedicated patient concierge representative assists with travel logistics. Travel from San Diego is included to the clinic, which is only 20 minutes from the San Diego airport.

Image guidance is used at the Center to ensure injection accuracy. In addition to arthritis treatment, R3 International offers stem cell treatment for autism, Lyme, COPD, kidney failure, neuropathy, diabetes, MS, ALS, stroke and much more.

Avacta and Daewoong Pharmaceutical expand partnership to include COVID-19 neutralising Affimer therapy – Business Wire

CAMBRIDGE & WETHERBY, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avacta Group plc (AIM: AVCT), the developer of Affimer biotherapeutics and reagents, is pleased to announce an expansion of its collaboration and license agreement with Daewoong Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (KSX: 069620) and AffyXell Therapeutics, the joint venture established in South Korea by the two companies, to develop stem cell treatments incorporating Avactas neutralising Affimer therapy for the treatment of seriously ill patients with COVID-19 and to also prepare to rapidly develop similar therapies for future global pandemics.

Respiratory diseases such as COVID-19 can cause serious damage to the lungs as a consequence of over-activation of the patient's immune system, resulting in cytokine release syndrome that can potentially lead to multiple organ failure and death. Stem cell therapies offer a very promising approach to repair the damage to lung tissues in these pulmonary diseases by controlling the immune balance.

AffyXell Therapeutics, the next-generation cell and gene therapy joint venture between Avacta and Daewoong Pharmaceutical, is developing a novel class of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) treatments that are engineered to also produce Affimer therapies in the patient at the site of action.

The expansion of the agreement between Avacta, Daewoong Pharmaceutical and AffyXell announced today extends the scope of the partnership to include Affimer molecules that target viruses, such as coronaviruses, in order to develop therapies that repair the lung damage caused by COVID-19 whilst also producing neutralising Affimer molecules to prevent the progression of the disease.

AffyXell will engineer mesenchymal stem cells to express SARS-COV-2 neutralising Affimer molecules in order to develop treatments for seriously ill COVID-19 patients, and will also prepare for rapid development of next-generation stem cell therapies for future infectious respiratory disease outbreaks.

Dr. Alastair Smith, Chief Executive of Avacta Group commented: I am very pleased to have extended our collaboration and license agreement with Daewoong Pharmaceutical to include the SARS-COV-2 neutralising Affimer molecules for the treatment of COVID-19 and to create the potential to respond very rapidly in future to global virus threats.

AffyXell will address the need over the coming years for advanced stem cell therapies to treat lung damage caused by cytokine release syndrome suffered by COVID-19 patients and, at the same time, help prevent disease progression in these patients through the action of a neutralising Affimer therapy.

More broadly, one of the key areas of unmet clinical need that AffyXell can address with its next-generation mesenchymal stem cell therapies is acute pulmonary diseases such as COPD and acute respiratory distress syndrome. We, and our partners in South Korea, are very excited by the potential to develop life improving treatments for patients with these serious respiratory diseases as well as COVID-19.

I look forward to further updating the market on progress in our ground-breaking programmes with AffyXell in due course, and on progress with our COVID-19 diagnostics programmes shortly.

Seng-ho Jeon, CEO of Daewoong Pharmaceutical and AffyXell Therapeutics, commented:

It is very encouraging that AffyXell now has the opportunity to expand the application of its next-generation stem cell platform technology to target viruses. The SARS-COV-2 neutralising Affimer to be developed in combination with AffyXells cell and gene technology is expected to be an innovative solution for COVID-19 patients suffering cytokine release syndrome.

Daewoong has been also conducting several research programs and clinical trial for COVID-19. As the COVID-19 crisis has caused great difficulties worldwide, we will continue to focus our efforts to develop a novel therapeutic agent for COVID-19.

This announcement contains information which, prior to its disclosure, was considered inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (MAR).

FDA Approves New CAR-T Therapy for Mantle Cell Lymphoma – Cancer Health Treatment News

On July 24, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted accelerated approval of a new CAR-T therapy, Tecartus (brexucabtagene autoleucel), for adults with mantle cell lymphoma who have not responded to or who have relapsed after other kinds of treatment.

Tecartus (formerly known as KTE-X19), manufactured by Kite, a Gilead Company, is a living drug that reprograms a patients own T cells to fight cancer. About two thirds of participants treated in the ZUMA-2 study experienced complete remission, which in a majority of cases lasted at least a year.

"This approval is yet another example of customized treatments that use a patients own immune system to help fight cancer, Peter Marks, MD, PhD, director of the FDAs Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, said in a press release. Were seeing continued advances in the field of gene therapy and remain committed to supporting innovation in this promising new area of medicine.

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an uncommon form of non-Hodgkinlymphoma that involves overgrowth of abnormal B cells in lymph nodes. By the time it is diagnosed, MCL has often spread to the bone marrow and other organs, and it is frequently refractory (nonresponsive) to existing treatments or relapses following a period of remission.

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapybetter known as CAR-Tinvolves removing a sample of a patients white blood cells, genetically reprogramming the T cells to recognize and attack their cancer, manufacturing a large number of the modified cells in a laboratory and infusing them back into the body. Like Kites previously approved CAR-T Yescarta (axicabtagene ciloleucel), Tecartus targets the CD19 protein on B cells, but the manufacturing process includes greater T-cell selection and lymphocyte enrichment.

The Phase II ZUMA-2 trial enrolled 74 adults with relapsed or refractory MCL in the United States and Europe who had previously tried up to five prior therapies. Six people ended up not receiving Tecartus because of manufacturing failures or death due to disease progression.

The primary analysis included 60 treated participants. Most were men, and the median age was 65. Most had Stage IV metastatic cancer, more than 80% had tried three or more prior treatments and 43% had received a bone marrow stem cell transplant.

A sample of the patients T cells were collected and modified, and they received strong conditioning chemotherapy to kill off some of their existing immune cells to make room for the new ones. They then received a single infusion of the genetically engineered cells.

As described at last years American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and in The New England Journal of Medicine, the overall response rate, meaning complete or partial remission, was 93%, including 67% with complete responses. After a year of follow-up, 57% were still in remission, as were 43% of those followed for two years. The estimated one-year progression-free survival rate was 61%, and the estimated overall survival rate was 83%.

In a press release announcing the approval, Gilead/Kite gave an updated overall response rate of 87% and a complete response rate of 62%.

Therapies that receive FDA accelerated approval based on overall response rates are expected to undergo further testing in larger trials to confirm clinical benefits, and the agencycan rescind approval if they do not measure up. Tecartus is also currently in Phase I/II trials for acute lymphoblastic leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Treatment with Tecartus was generally safe. The most common severe adverse events were low blood cell counts due to the conditioning chemotherapy and infections. Introducing engineered T cells can trigger a strong immune reaction known as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which can lead to falling blood pressure and organ failure. As previously reported, 15% of study participants experienced Grade 3 or higher CRS, and 31% developed severe neurological side effects. Based on a larger group of patients, Gilead/Kite updated these figures to 18% and 37%, respectively. These side effects were managed with corticosteroids or Actemra (tocilizumab), and none were fatal.

A risk evaluation and mitigation strategy (REMS) for Tecartus has been approved by the FDA and combined with the YescartaREMS (www.YescartaTecartusREMS.com). This program informs health care professionals about the risks associated with CAR-T therapy and how to manage it.

Tecartus will be produced at Kites commercial manufacturing facility in El Segundo, California. The median turnaround time from T-cell collection to administration of the modified cells is around 15 days, according to the press release. The Kite Konnectprogram offers financial and logistical support for eligible patients receiving Tecartus or Yescarta.

Despite promising advances, there are still major gaps in treatment for patients with MCL who progress following initial therapy, ZUMA-2 lead investigator Michael Wang, MD, of University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, said in the press release. Many patients have high-risk disease and are more likely to keep progressing, even after subsequent treatments. The availability of Tecartus as the first-ever cell therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory MCL provides an important option with a response rate of nearly 90% and early clinical evidence suggesting durable remissions in later lines of therapy.

MISSION, Kan., July 28, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (Family Features) Despite progress in treating lung cancer, it is the leading cause of cancer deaths and impacts communities across the United States. The most common form of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC is a complex disease that can be challenging to treat, which may feel overwhelming and unsettling for people facing the disease.

Advanced lung cancer is devastating, so the fact that additional treatment options are now available that have the potential to extend the lives of patients gives us hope, said Bonnie J. Addario, lung cancer survivor and co-founder and chair, GO2 Foundation. Its exciting that this is a combination of immunotherapies, which brings a whole new approach for patients and physicians to consider when discussing treatment options.

A Chemo-Free Treatment Option A first-of-its-kind, chemotherapy-free treatment option was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a first treatment for certain adults with advanced NSCLC, or NSCLC that has spread to other parts of the body. This treatment is a prescription medicine that is a combination of two immunotherapies, Opdivo (nivolumab) and Yervoy (ipilimumab), and it can be used for adults newly diagnosed with advanced NSCLC that tests positive for PD-L1 but do not have an abnormal EGFR or ALK gene.

Opdivo can cause problems that can sometimes become serious or life threatening and can lead to death. Serious side effects may include lung problems (pneumonitis); intestinal problems (colitis) that can lead to tears or holes in your intestine; liver problems (hepatitis); hormone gland problems (especially the thyroid, pituitary, adrenal glands, and pancreas); kidney problems, including nephritis and kidney failure; skin problems; inflammation of the brain (encephalitis); problems in other organs; severe infusion reactions; and complications of stem-cell transplant that uses donor stem cells (allogeneic). Additional serious side effects of Yervoy alone include: nerve problems that can lead to paralysis; eye problems; and complications of stem-cell transplant that uses donor stem cells (allogeneic). Please see Important Facts about side effects for Opdivo and Yervoy below.

The Chance for a Longer Life In a study of 793 previously untreated patients whose tumors tested positive for PD-L1, 396 were given the immunotherapy combination of Opdivo + Yervoy and 397 were given platinum-based chemotherapy. Treatment with the immunotherapy combination reduced the risk of death by 21%, with half of patients treated with the immunotherapy combination still alive at 17.1 months and half of patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy still alive at 14.9 months. This analysis was conducted at a minimum follow-up of 29.3 months.

In additional analyses, 63% of patients treated withthe immunotherapy combinationand 56% treated with platinum-based chemotherapy were alive at one year, and 40% and 33% at two years, respectively.At three years, 33% of patients treated withthe immunotherapy combination and 22% of those treated with platinum-based chemotherapy were still alive. The analysis at these time points was not designed to show a difference between Opdivo + Yervoy and platinum-based chemotherapy.

The most common side effects of OPDIVO, when used in combination with YERVOY, include: feeling tired; diarrhea; rash; itching; nausea; pain in muscles, bones, and joints; fever; cough; decreased appetite; vomiting; stomach-area (abdominal) pain; shortness of breath; upper respiratory tract infection; headache; low thyroid hormone levels (hypothyroidism); decreased weight; and dizziness. The most common side effects of YERVOY include: feeling tired; diarrhea; nausea; itching; rash; vomiting; headache; weight loss; fever; decreased appetite; and difficulty falling or staying asleep. Please see Important Facts about side effects for Opdivo and Yervoy below.

As an oncologist who treats patients facing this particularly challenging disease, the fact that Opdivo plus Yervoy has shown overall survival at three years is important, said Hossein Borghaei, D.O., chief of thoracic medical oncology division at Fox Chase Cancer Center and an investigator in the clinical study.

Being diagnosed with lung cancer can be challenging and life-changing. Advancements in NSCLC bring additional treatment options that may enable certain patients a chance to live longer lives.

For more information, visit Opdivo.com or talk to you doctor about treatment options.

INDICATION Opdivo (nivolumab) is a prescription medicine used in combination with Yervoy (ipilimumab) as a first treatment for adults with a type of advanced stage lung cancer (called non-small cell lung cancer) when your lung cancer has spread to other parts of your body (metastatic) and your tumors are positive for PD-L1, but do not have an abnormal EGFR or ALK gene.

It is not known if OPDIVO is safe and effective in children younger than 18 years of age.

OPDIVO (10 mg/mL) and YERVOY (5 mg/mL) are injections for intravenous (IV) use.

IMPORTANTSAFETYINFORMATION forOPDIVO(nivolumab) + YERVOY(ipilimumab)

OPDIVO is a medicine that may treat certain cancers by working with your immune system. OPDIVO can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in any area of your body and can affect the way they work. These problems can sometimes become serious or life-threatening and can lead to death. These problems may happen anytime during treatment or even after your treatment has ended. Some of these problems may happen more often when OPDIVO is used in combination with YERVOY.

YERVOY can cause serious side effects in many parts of your body which can lead to death. These problems may happen anytime during treatment with YERVOY or after you have completed treatment.

Serious side effects may include:

Additional serious side effects observed during a separate study of YERVOY alone include:

Get medical help immediatelyif you develop any of these symptoms or they get worse. It may keep these problems from becoming more serious. Your healthcare team will check you for side effects during treatment and may treat you with corticosteroid or hormone replacement medicines. If you have a serious side effect, your healthcare team may also need to delay or completely stop your treatment.

OPDIVO and OPDIVO + YERVOY can cause serious side effects, including:
