Flow-based human tissue models show stronger T-cell activity than static cultures, with blinatumomab inducing significant B-cell killing and cytokine release. Sartorius has introduced a 96-well multi-organ tox plate for drug toxicity testing, while in vitro systems are increasingly used as new approach methodologies to complement animal models.
China has approved the world's first CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors, specifically for stomach cancer, developed by CARsgen Therapeutics.
