We've been working 'Research and development of new technologies on large scale production of viral vectors for gene and cell therapy' aligned with 'Research and development of core technologies for gene and cell therapy' supported by the Japan Agency for Medical Research and Development(AMED) since FY2018.
We have being aiming to develop elemental technologies and build a manufacturing technology platform that is supposed to comply with regulations for conducting clinical trials in order to realize large scale production of viral vectors for gene and cell therapy.
