Navigating Cell and Gene Therapy: Insights and Challenges with Dr. Bruce Levine
Manage episode 432892247 series 3526489
How do you navigate the complexities of manufacturing cell and gene therapies that are tailored to individual patients? Find out as we sit down with Dr. Bruce Levine from the University of Pennsylvania to unpack the intricacies of clinical research in this groundbreaking field. From the unique emphasis on chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) to the logistical hurdles of sourcing and modifying patient-derived cells, Dr. Levine offers an expert's perspective on the challenges and advancements that set these therapies apart from traditional drugs. We also shine a light on the vital role of the International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy in driving forward these innovative treatments.
In another riveting segment, we delve into the recent FDA investigation into cases of T-cell malignancies following CAR T-cell therapy. With data gleaned from voluntary reporting databases, we scrutinize causality, immortal time bias, and the need for improved reporting standards. Dr. Levine shares his thoughts on the importance of thorough patient follow-up and effective communication of risks and benefits. We also explore the evolution of cell and gene therapy, tracing Dr. Levine's journey from his early days in immunology research to his pivotal role in shaping the field. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the dynamic and ever-evolving world of cell and gene therapy.
