Cost-effective, high-productivity extracellular vesicle production platform overcoming traditional manufacturing challenges
The extracellular vesicle (EV) therapy market has witnessed remarkable success in preclinical studies, showcasing significant potential for treating diverse medical conditions.
The regenerative and immunomodulatory properties of EVs produced from mesenchymal stem cells have fuelled optimism for therapeutic applications, with ongoing clinical trials exploring their efficacy. Use of engineered EVs produced from various cell lines to carry dedicated therapeutic cargo has also seen significant growth over the last years.
However, the path to widespread clinical adoption faces challenges. Large-scale manufacturing, low affinity, quantification, and standardization remain pivotal hurdles.
