Sexton Biotechnologies Partners with BioSpherix to Create a Fully-Enclosed, Modular Fill-Finish System with Rapid Deployment for Emerging Cell and…

INDIANAPOLIS, June 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Sexton Biotechnologieshas announced a new collaboration withBioSpherix Medical. As a tool and technologies partners of the Cell and Gene industry, Sexton and BioSpherix both recognize the need for cost-effective and flexible automation solutions during cell and gene therapy process development. While some upstream bioprocesses have been successfully automated, the final steps of downstream bioprocess, namely Fill-Finish, are often done manually with associated risks of contamination and user error.

The inefficiencies and lack of traceable GMP controls make manual Fill-Finish processes unacceptable if companies are to scale up and scale out for late-stage clinical or commercial phases. The new collaboration will combine Sexton's off-the-shelf fill system, the Sexton Biotechnologies AF-500, with BioSpherix' exclusive Cytocentric isolator technology, allowing rapid process development and implementation of GMP Fill-Finish.

The recent global pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented acceleration of therapeutic candidates paired with significant supply chain challenges. Development of clinical and commercial stage manufacturing systems to meet this rapid expansion is likely to lead to significant delays in scale up and completion of clinical studies.

BioSpherix, having already observed that traditional GMP capacity is becoming limited, leads the field in manufacture of modular systems that reduce the time and capital burden of implementation. While constructing and operating a Class A or B environment is time and cost-prohibitive for start-up companies, the BioSpherix solution offers an attractive solution to reduce the need for high classification cleanroom, long lead times, and costs.

"The limitations of many of the available downstream processing methods and systems are inherently obvious for cell and gene therapy developers," said Sean Werner, President of Sexton Biotechnologies. "We've taken the approach with the AF-500 to have systems ready to ship so developers can immediately begin process development of small volume fill and finish with the equipment they plan to use at clinical scale. The collaboration with BioSpherix further enhances our current technology enabling it to operate within a fully closed environment along with the ability to control temperatures to limit risks during cryopreservation."

Sexton and BioSpherix recognized each other's capabilities as complimentary and that together, they could address a gap in process capabilities. Sexton's rapidly deployable Fill and Seal system, AF-500, is capable of filling and sealing up to 500 CellSeal vials in 90 minutes and is available for immediate delivery and can be installed for use within a biosafety cabinet while the BioSpherix modular isolator is under construction. The BioSpherix modular isolator can be configured for any manual or automated, large or small, simple or complex bioprocess, making it the perfect fit with Sexton's AF-500 to bring flexibility, sterility, and automation to our customers.

About Sexton:

Sexton Biotechnologies is a revenue stage, biotechnology company focused on the development and sales of bioproduction tools for cell and gene therapy founded in 2019 as a spin-out of Cook Regentec, a life science incubator/accelerator located in Indianapolis, IN. Sexton develops purpose-built CGT tools and media to enable flexible automation and scaling of cell manufacturing processes to increase the probability of positive clinical outcomes and reduce time-to-market, failure points, and labor costs.

Preventing misleading claim of COVID-19 cure – The Jakarta Post – Jakarta Post

Researchers atAirlangga University (Unair) and the State Intelligence Agency (BIN) released on June 12what appeared to be an encouraging statement:the discovery of five combination drug therapies and two stem cell therapies for treating COVID-19.

The acute respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has claimed at least 2,000 lives in Indonesia to date.

The joint statementattributed to Unair andBIN also said that themedicines were ready for distributionin treating COVID-19 patients.

Drug combinations

The five combination therapiesfor COVID-19 are: lopinavir/ritonavir with azithromycin, lopinavir/ritonavir with doxycycline, lopinavir/ritonavir with clarithromycin, hydroxychloroquine with azithromycin, and hydroxychloroquine with doxycycline.

In addition, the statementclaimed that the researchers had identified two types of isolated stemcells that inhibitedSARS-CoV-2 activity:hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and natural killer (NK) cells.

Their goodwill to bring an end tothe pandemic should be appreciated. Unfortunately, their conclusions seem premature and could lead to more damaging consequences for the public.

In theory, the drug combinationsrecommended by Unair and BIN have the potentialto inhibit SARS-CoV-2. Lopinavir and ritonavir are protease inhibitors that are currently used to treat people with HIV/AIDS. Hydroxychloroquine is a malarial treatment, while azithromycin, doxycyclineand clarithromycin are antibiotics that can fight secondary bacterial (not viral) infections in COVID-19 patients who have developed pneumonia.

However, theory does not necessarily work inpractice. Noneof these drugs have been provenin any clinical study to bea safe and effective treatmentfor COVID-19. The World Health Organization (WHO) has started clinical trials involving thousands of patients in dozens of countries to test the efficacy and safety of these drugs. So far, there has been no clear indication that these drugs, whether individually or in combination,are effective in treating COVID-19.

In fact, evidence exists that hydroxychloroquine may worsen the condition of patients, which led the WHO to suspend the clinical trial of the drug.

Unair and BIN are correct in conducting in vitro (test tube) experiments to verify the effect and toxicity of the drugs for SARS-CoV-2. Unfortunately, they have not communicated in any clear way on how they designed, executedand analyzed their experiments.

We do not know how they cultured the virus, what kind of negative controls they used, what kind of cells they testedor whether the cells they usedcontained the necessary receptors for SARS-CoV-2 to enter a human cell. More importantly, it is crucial to note thatthe results of in vitro experiments(however encouraging) cannot be assumed to be safe and effectivetreatments for direct use in human patients. For example, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on averageapprovedless than 10 percent of drugs that performed well in vitroas safe for humanprescription.

The human lungs contain millions of cells comprising dozens of different types that perform intricate interactions. The proposed drugs can also affect other organs in the human body and cause adverse reactions.

Instead of announcing that these five combination therapiesare ready for treating COVID-19, Unair and BIN should first run arandomizedcontrolled trial (RCT) to confirm their findings.Recruiting diverse patient populations is also critical to ensuring thefairness and robustness of the study.

Despite their good intentions, all the drugs that Unair and BIN researchers have proposedare strong medicines, whether individually or in combination, that can potentially cause unwanted sideeffects and even death. Surely none of us want to rush into an unproven treatmentin order to avoid developing even more overwhelming health problems in the future.

Stem cell therapy

Stem cell therapy is another COVID-19treatment that Unair and BIN researchers have proposed. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells thathas the potential to develop into many different types of cells in human body. One type of stem cell they have proposed is hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), whichdevelop into blood cells, includingimmune cells that help the body fight pathogens and infections.

However, stem cell therapy is still considered very risky, expensiveand limited to treating a few cancers, such as leukemia. No evidence exists that stem cell therapy is efficient in treating viral infections in the human bodysuch asCOVID-19.

As with the drug therapies, the Unair and BIN researchers did not say how they performed their stem cell experiment. We have no information oncrucial aspects likestem cell culturing protocol, the stem cell's differentiation status, tumorigenic potential, proliferation capacity orexcretion patterns, and how they tested stem cell activity against SARS-CoV-2.

Even if the researchersestablished a sound experimentalprotocol for their in vitro experiments, administering stem cell therapy to COVID-19 patients is an extremely dangerous procedure that can result in undesirable costs, such as malignancy, the stem cells attacking other healthy cellsand possibly death.

Injecting stem cells into the human body carries a huge risk of immuno-rejection (think of a blood type A patient receivinga bloodtype B infusion, but witha much more severe reaction). The doctors administering the treatment must isolate autologousstem cells from the individual patient or allogenic stem cells froma separate donor, culture them, and reinject the treated cells into the patient. These processes are extremely laborious, time-consumingand expensive, and there is no clear indication that the treatment will produce a safe and successful outcome against viral infection.

This is hardly a sound strategy to use during a pandemic. Furthermore, thecommon procedureis to administer powerful immunosuppressants to reduce the strength of thepatients immune system, particularly in the allogenic scenario, which would minimizethe risk of immuno-rejection. However, it would be unwise to shut down a COVID-19patient's immune system that is neededto work properly for their body to fight SARS-CoV-2.

Unair and BIN's valiant effortsshould still be applauded, as they are committed to treating COVID-19 and ending the pandemic. The public is waiting impatiently for the health crisis to subside so they canresume their normal lives.

However, everyone should realize that discovering treatments and developing a potential vaccine for a disease that was virtually unknown six months ago takes a lot of time and resources.

Unair and BIN said that they had submitted their research to at least seven peer-reviewed internationaljournals, but this does not mean that their research is validated immediately. It still needs reviewing and questioned by their scientific peers.

It is necessary for the researchers to publish their findings onan open access, preprint repository for biological or medical research papers like BiorXiv or MedrXiv, so that scientists and people around the worldcan scrutinize and engage in healthy scientific discourse.

We absolutely deserve good news during the pandemicon safe medical treatmentsand vaccines. We also deserve complete, clear and transparent public communications from all COVID-19 stakeholders, including researchers and governments, to ensure that all actions are evidence-based, safeand effective.

Drivers of Healthy Gut Maintenance Uncovered – Technology Networks

Read Time:

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have found two genes that regulate the differentiation of stem cells in the small intestine, offering valuable insight into how the body develops and maintains a healthy gut.

Cells in the lining of the small intestine are replaced around every five days, the quickest rate for any organ in the body. This fast replacement helps the lining cope with the damage it suffers as a result of breaking down food and absorbing nutrients.

This process, which is important for the healthy functioning of the small intestine, is supported by the stem cells in a part of the small intestine called the crypt.

In their study, published in Gastroenterology, the researchers found two genes, MTG8 and MTG16, which are highly expressed in cells that have just left the stem cell zone. These genes 'switch off' signals that keep these cells in a multipotent or 'immature' state, leading them to start to differentiate.

When the team analysed intestinal tissue and small intestine organoids grown from mice lacking these genes, they found there were many more stem cells, indicating that the process of differentiation was impeded.

Anna Baulies, lead author and postdoctoral training fellow in the Stem Cell and Cancer Biology lab at the Crick says: "These genes maintain the flow of cells which are needed for the healthy functioning of the small intestine, starting the stem cells on the road to become enterocyte cells which are needed to absorb nutrients."

Importantly, by working with human small intestine organoids, the researchers also found that while the stem cells are still in the crypt, these genes are repressed by a key developmental pathway, Notch signalling. This ensures the stem cells do not differentiate too early.

Vivian Li, senior author and group leader of the Stem Cell and Cancer Biology lab at the Crick says, "Understanding the role these genes play in healthy tissue will also help us to understand how the intestine regularly regenerates and also if these genes are a helpful or harmful force in the presence of disease."

"For example, loss of these genes may increase the number of stem cells and contribute to colorectal cancer progression. Further study on the underlying mechanism might be helpful to limit the number of stem cells in the cancer."

The signal that these genes repress, Wnt signalling, also keeps stem cells in a multipotent state in many other tissues, including the skin, stomach, liver and brain. These findings could therefore help other research into stem cell differentiation outside of the small intestine.

The researchers will continue this work, looking to understand more about the mechanism these two genes use to regulate stem cell differentiation and regeneration.
