This study demonstrates the generation of T-cell lines targeting WT1, Survivin, MAGE-A3, and PRAME from pediatric ALL patients using autologous DCs and PHA-blasts. The cells showed specific anti-leukemic activity. G-Rex are referenced as a strategy for scaling up to clinical cell numbers.

This study utilized G-Rex to expand NK cells from cord blood using artificial antigen presenting cells (aAPCs). The protocol achieved a mean 2389-fold expansion of high-purity NK cells in 14 days. Expanded cells demonstrated significant in vitro and in vivo cytotoxicity against multiple myeloma.

This study reports a simplified method to generate T cells targeting EBV, CMV, and Adenovirus using nucleofected dendritic cells and G-Rex devices. The 10-day G-Rex protocol produced clinically relevant cell numbers. Infused cells were safe and effective against active viral infections in HSCT recipients.

This study demonstrates that nicotinamide (NAM) enhances the homing and retention of NK cells in bone marrow, spleen, and lung. NK cells were expanded in G-Rex devices under feeder-free conditions with IL-2 or IL-15. The G-Rex platform supported large-scale expansion, yielding high-purity NK cells.

Compares unselected young TILs vs CD8+-enriched TILs. Mentions that G-Rex were optimized for TIL therapy and introduced for clinical use. The study used (WAVE and G-Rex) for high-density T-cell expansion, facilitating rapid accrual

Describes a protocol for expanding nTregs using G-Rex10 and G-Rex100 devices. The method yielded >10^9 Tregs in 21 days with high purity and suppressive function. G-Rex promoted robust expansion (over 600-fold) compared to 24-well plates (5-6 fold) and maintained telomere length

Clinical trial results for TIL therapy in melanoma. Mentions using 'gas-permeable bags or GRex ' for the Rapid Expansion Procedure (REP). Notes that G-Rex allow large-scale expansion to treatment levels (10^10 - 10^11 cells)

SOP for expanding CTLs. Detailed instructions for using G-Rex40 and G-Rex500. Describes transfer of cells to G-Rex, adding media and IL-2, feeding schedules (removing half media), and splitting cells if density is high

SOP for initiating CTLs. Describes initiating cells in '24-well plate or GRex40 '. Details seeding 1x10^7 cells in 5mL for G-Rex40 and culturing for 9 days for initial stimulation

SOP for transducing LCLs with adenovirus vectors. G-Rex is not explicitly referenced in this document, though it is part of a larger G-Rex workflow for CTL production

SOP for freezing CTLs. Mentions harvesting CTLs from 'wells or GRex '. Provides a protocol for ensuring cell quality and viability during cryopreservation

SOP for generating LCLs. Mentions expansion of LCLs in ' (G40 and G500)' (G-Rex) if large numbers are required. Describes seeding densities and media volumes for G-Rex40 (30 mL) and G-Rex500 (100-200 mL)
