Large Scale Ex Vivo Expansion of γδ T cells Using Artificial Antigen-presenting Cells

This study demonstrates a GMP-compliant protocol for expanding donor-derived γδ T cells using zoledronic acid, IL-2, and engineered aAPCs. The method achieved significant expansion of Vδ1 and Vδ2 subsets. PBMCs were seeded into G-Rex 100 for the initial enrichment and expansion phases.

Homology‑independent targeted insertion (HITI) enables guided CAR knock‑in and efficient clinical scale CAR‑T cell manufacturing

Describes a non-viral CRISPR/Cas9 HITI method for CAR knock-in. Primary T cells were cultivated in G-Rex 24-well/6-well plates or G-Rex 100M vessels.

Scalable GMP-compliant gene correction of CD4+ T cells with IDLV template functionally validated in vitro and in vivo

Developed a GMP process for gene correction of CD4+ T cells. Medium-scale experiments used G-Rex 6-6M, and large-scale used G-Rex 100CS or 500CS for cell expansion.

Preparation of cryopreserved chimeric antigen receptor T cells for the locoreogional delivery to the neural axis

Describes a thaw/wash method for CAR-T cells for intracranial delivery. B7-H3-CAR T cells were generated and expanded in G-Rex culture devices using X-VIVO 15 media with cytokines.

Vγ9Vδ2 T cells expressing a BCMA—Specific chimeric antigen receptor inhibit multiple myeloma xenograft growth

This study generates BCMA-CAR Vg9Vd2 T cells via mRNA electroporation. Vg9Vd2 T cells were expanded using Zometa and co-cultured with aAPCs. Previous work by the group used G-Rex vessels for large-scale expansion.

Chimeric antigen receptor structure and manufacturing of clinical grade CAR engineered cells using different bioreactors

This review discusses CAR structure and automated manufacturing platforms. It highlights the G-Rex (M series) and GatheRex pump as a practical, cost-effective, and scalable static culture option for CAR-T expansion.

Feasibility and preclinical efficacy of CD7-unedited CD7 CAR T cells for T cell malignancies

The study demonstrates manufacturing of CD7 CAR T cells using ibrutinib/dasatinib to prevent fratricide. cGMP manufacturing involved transduction and expansion in G-Rex culture devices for 3 additional days.

Improving cytokine-induced killer cell expansion using a gas-permeable culture method for clinical-scale production

This paper compares CIK cell expansion in G-Rex devices vs standard plates. G-Rex 24-well and 6-well plates were used. G-Rex resulted in significantly higher expansion and IFN-g secretion, supporting clinical-scale production.
