Join us at the Annual Congress of the European Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ESGCT) in Hamburg!
Visit us at booth E-13/E-14 to discover how our high-quality plasmid and Minicircle DNA support gene and cell therapy programs from research to GMP. With more than 25 years of experience, PlasmidFactory is your trusted partner for complex constructs and regulatory-grade DNA.
Lunch Symposium
From DNA to Therapy: Minicircle-Enabled Advances in Cell & Gene Therapy
October 28 | 01:30–02:30 PM
Hall 3, Level 0
Our lunchtime symposium brings together experts from MHH, Fraunhofer IZI, Baylor College of Medicine and Charité/Berlin Institute of Health to discuss applications of Minicircle DNA in AAV-based gene therapy, precise genome editing and non-viral CAR T-cell manufacturing.
Chair:
Prof. Dr. Hildegard Büning
Deputy Director, Institute of Experimetal Hematology, Medizinische Hochschule Hannover
Co-host:
Dr. Ram Shankar
CSO, PlasmidFactory GmbH
Speaker:
Dr. Katrin Mestermann | Fraunhofer IZI
From Bench to Bedside: Development of a Virus-Free Clinical CAR T Manufacturing Protocol
Insights into the development and translation of a transposase-mediated, virus-free CAR T manufacturing process toward scalable and GMP-compliant production.
Prof. Dr. Dimitrios L. Wagner | Baylor College of Medicine & Charité/Berlin Institute of Health
Non-viral and site-specific integration to create advanced TCR- and CAR-T cell therapies
An overview of non-viral donor templates and site-specific integration approaches for engineering advanced TCR- and CAR-T cells.
