Leveraging LIMS for Advancing Cellular Therapies
Cellular therapies are a groundbreaking approach to medicine that utilises living cells to treat various diseases and conditions. Unlike traditional pharmaceuticals, which often target symptoms, cellular therapies aim to address the underlying causes of disease by delivering living cells or modifying a patient’s cells to restore or enhance their function. Examples include CAR-T cell therapy, where a patient’s immune cells are genetically engineered to recognise and attack cancer cells and stem cell treatments, which utilise the regenerative properties of stem cells to repair damaged tissues and organs (learn more about regenerative medicine here). Cellular therapies hold immense promise for personalised and precise treatments, offering new hope to patients with conditions previously considered untreatable.
