Starting material
Suitable immune-cell populations are obtained from a blood collection. Required volume, collection tubes and transport conditions depend on the manufacturing protocol.
Differentiation into dendritic cells
Suitable precursor cells are developed towards dendritic cells under defined culture conditions.
Tumour-related antigen information
Different antigen sources or tumour-related information can be used for immunological targeting. Which source is appropriate depends on the method and the individual clinical situation.
Maturation and function
Maturation steps are intended to support antigen presentation and communication with T cells.
Quality control and release
Before use, product-specific quality and safety criteria are checked. The binding criteria are the release specifications and accompanying documentation of the responsible manufacturing partner.
Transport and handover
After release, transport, storage and application are organised according to the documented specifications. These instructions must not be changed independently.
