Living beings are extraordinary machines, where each cell is a specialized micro-factory equipped with its own biological «operating system.» In this amazing design, each cell is programmed to perform specific functions that sustain life.
Cell therapies are revolutionary treatments that harness this natural complexity. At CellRep, we act as «biological programmers,» modifying cellular behavior either inside the patient’s body or by extracting cells to reprogram them in the laboratory before reintroducing them. Imagine being able to redesign these micro-factories to fight diseases – that’s exactly what we do!
The field of cell therapies is rapidly expanding, with innovative treatments like CAR-T for cancer, stem cell therapies for tissue regeneration, and mesenchymal cells for autoimmune diseases. However, these treatments still face challenges in their efficiency and effectiveness.
At CellRep, we focus on enhancing these therapies. We work to enable existing cell therapy providers to offer more effective and efficient solutions to their patients.
Our flywheel integrates three key dimensions:
- In Silico: We use cutting-edge artificial intelligence to identify and validate therapeutic targets
- In Vitro: We validate our discoveries in the laboratory
- In Vivo: We confirm efficacy in preclinical models
This approach has already allowed us to identify 10 promising targets and develop 20 candidate molecules that will enhance existing cellular treatments, making them more accessible and effective.
What do you think about the future of these therapies? Would you like to know more about any particular aspect?
