Insights
ScaleReady's $300,000 G-Rex Grant to Gates Institute advances CAR-T manufacturing platforms, positioning Bio-Techne for growth in the cell therapy space.
The $300,000 G-Rex Grant awarded to Gates Institute represents a strategic investment in optimizing CAR-T cell manufacturing processes. This collaboration between ScaleReady (a partnership including Bio-Techne and Wilson Wolf) and the respected CDMO at University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus targets a critical bottleneck in cell therapy development.
The grant focuses on developing a modular G-Rex centric CAR-T manufacturing platform through structured Design of Experiments (DoE) methodology—a sophisticated approach that systematically evaluates critical variables to optimize manufacturing steps. This scientific rigor will generate valuable intellectual property and process knowledge that could significantly enhance Bio-Techne's competitive positioning in the cell therapy tools market.
What makes this particularly noteworthy is the access to CellReady's -䴡-� standardized manufacturing operation, which emphasizes high-throughput, low-cost manufacturing—addressing the fundamental cost challenges that have limited broader adoption of cell therapies. The initiative aligns with industry-wide efforts to reduce manufacturing complexity, improve scalability, and lower production costs for advanced therapies.
The broader context of ScaleReady's $40M authorized product grants and the launch of their LEAN Cell & Gene� program indicates a coordinated strategy to establish their G-Rex platform as an industry standard in cell therapy manufacturing. For Bio-Techne, this represents potential for expanded market share in the rapidly growing cell and gene therapy tools sector, particularly in simplified, scalable manufacturing solutions that address current industry pain points.
"We are grateful for the generous G-Rex Grant funding, which will support the development of efficient and adaptable manufacturing approaches for our cell and gene therapy (CGT) programs," said Dr. Veena Krishnamoorthy, Director of Translational Sciences at the Gates Institute. "The scalable and modular nature of the G-Rex platform aligns with our goals to optimize use of space, capital, and personnel while maintaining cell health and quality. We appreciate the support from Wilson Wolf and Bio-Techne in advancing our work and the broader CGT field."
"We are pleased to award G-Rex Grant funding to the Gates Institute, a leader in bridging the academic world of discovery with clinical application to advance a diverse portfolio of innovative cell therapies for devastating cancers and rare diseases. It's an honor to support the Gates Institute's important contributions to the field of cell and gene therapy." said John Wilson, CEO of Wilson Wolf and co-inventor of G-Rex.
The G-Rex Grant will support a structured Design of Experiments (DoE) to optimize key CAR-T cell manufacturing steps by systematically evaluating critical variables. The resulting data will continue to define and optimize how process conditions impact product attributes, enabling the Gates Institute to offer a broad range of manufacturing options within standardized, well-characterized design spaces for novel cell and gene therapies.
As part of the G-Rex Grant, the Gates Institute will also receive early access to CellReady's G-CAR-TTM, a standardized CAR-T drug product manufacturing operation conceived of by CellReady, the world's first and only G-Rex CDMO. G-CAR-TTM is ideal for high-throughput, low-cost manufacturing.
