Identification of neoepitopes recognized by tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) from patients with glioma

This study identified neoepitopes recognized by TILs from glioblastoma patients. G-Rex were used to expand TILs from tumor digests in the presence of OKT3 and irradiated feeder cells, providing sufficient cells for immune reactivity testing.

TCRαβ/CD3 disruption enables CD3-specific antileukemic T cell immunotherapy

This paper reports the creation of anti-CD3 CAR-T cells (3CAR) using TALEN-mediated TCR disruption to avoid self-killing. G-Rex were used to scale up the production, allowing 3CAR T cells to expand 100-fold and self-enrich for the TCR-negative population.

Utilizing T-cell activation signals 1, 2 and 3 for tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) expansion: the advantage over the sole use of interleukin-2 in cutaneous and uveal melanoma

A novel TIL expansion method combining IL-2, anti-4-1BB, and OKT3 was developed. Using small G-Rex 10 devices allowed for successful expansion from fewer tumor fragments and reduced culture time compared to standard methods, especially for uveal melanoma.
