Efficacy and safety of autologous tumor- infiltrating lymphocytes in recurrent or refractory ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

This clinical trial assesses TIL therapy in refractory solid tumors. While no objective responses were seen, disease control was observed. The Rapid Expansion Protocol (REP) utilized G-Rex 10 and 100M to generate the large numbers of TILs required for patient infusion.

Rapid parallel reconstruction and specificity screening of hundreds of T cell receptors

This protocol details a medium-throughput method to clone and screen TCRs against various antigens using combinatorial dye staining. G-Rex 24-well plates are recommended for expanding TCR-transduced T cells after Dynabead removal to ensure sufficient cell numbers for screening.

Sequential Exposure to IL21 and IL15 During Human Natural Killer Cell Expansion Optimizes Yield and Function

The authors found that sequential stimulation with mbIL21 then mbIL15 feeder cells optimizes NK cell yield and function. Purified NK cells were co-cultured with irradiated K562 feeders in G-Rex 6-well plates, facilitating robust expansion for functional assessment.

Enhancing CAR-T cell functionality in a patient-specific manner

This paper investigates how tuning T-cell stimulation dose using APC-mimetic scaffolds affects CAR-T phenotype and function across healthy and patient samples. 6-well G-Rex plates were used for the expansion of CAR-T cells, enabling the generation of diverse cell products for analysis.

Targeting of intracellular oncoproteins with peptide-centric CARs

The study describes PC-CARs targeting the neuroblastoma oncoprotein PHOX2B presented on HLA. These CARs kill tumor cells across multiple HLA allotypes. Primary human T cells were activated and expanded in G-Rex system vessels (Wilson Wolf) during the retroviral and lentiviral transduction processes.

Inducible expression of interleukin-12 augments the efficacy of affinity-tuned chimeric antigen receptors in murine solid tumor models

This research combines affinity-tuned EpCAM/ICAM-1 CARs with NFAT-inducible IL-12 to enhance antitumor activity in solid tumors while minimizing toxicity. G-Rex 6M well plates were employed to expand the CAR-T cell products after lentiviral transduction.
