Frustrated with fill and finish steps slowing your cell therapy manufacturing process? You may be interested in this new research conducted by Charles River Laboratories. It showed that the Finia Fill and Finish System can successfully perform four back-to-back runs to process a harvest of T cells. Dose accuracy and cell concentration were maintained across the sequential runs, as was cell health, including viability, functionality, and phenotype. In the study, 12 product bags were completed in about 2 hours with a 60% reduction in hands-on labor.

Are you good at trivia? Well, let’s see. Fill in the blank by putting your answer in the comment section below! “At Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies, we serve patients in _____countries around the world .” In our previous #FunFactFriday series we shared our journey on expanding our product line from perfusion and dialysis, to blood processing. With this growth, came also a need to expand our network globally. In 1973, we opened our first office outside of the U.S., in Zaventem, Belgium. By 1988, subsidiaries were set up in England, Italy, Japan, Australia and more, allowing us to serve more patients. In 2011, we were acquired by Terumo Corporation, a global medtech company headquartered in Tokyo. Today, we are an integral part of Terumo Group’s portfolio, representing one of the three companies. We serve patients in 150+ countries with the help and contribution of 400+ distributors and 8,000 associates – all playing their part in realizing our mission of Contributing to Society through Healthcare. Now, back to the trivia section. Did you put your answer in the comment section, yet? Stay tuned for our final #FunFactFriday 60th Anniversary post next week so you don’t miss out on the celebrations. #TerumoProud #60WaysFor60Years #LakewoodCO #DropOfHope

Reimbursement policies support access to healthcare services, as well as the development of innovative healthcare technologies and novel therapies, such as CAR-T therapy. We encourage stakeholders to submit comments to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to advocate for outpatient CAR-T cell collection and processing clinical services. The deadline is this September 9. CMS has released the Calendar Year 2025 proposed rules for the Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) and the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS). Our company supports the MPFS proposal to replace Category III codes with permanent Category I codes because we recognize it as a separate medical procedure. This has been nearly universally supported by the major stakeholders. Practically, this should lead to additional reimbursement opportunities for those performing the collection, which is especially important in the event of repeat collections and collections that do not result in the administration of finished CAR-T cell therapies. The OPPS proposal suggests bundling the harvesting of blood-derived T lymphocytes (3X018) with the preparation and transportation of CAR-T cells for administration (3X019, 3X020) while keeping the administration of CAR-T cells (3X021) separate. We do not support this bundling. We believe cell collection, transport, and processing should be recognized as distinct clinical services, each deserving separate reimbursement. Comments can be submitted here: OPPS (https://lnkd.in/gsdnTEgz) and MFPS (https://lnkd.in/gs-qcpvw) Read more here ➡️ https://bit.ly/3AH8TcU

Happy #FunFactFriday At Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies, innovation is at the core of everything we do. We have been committed to advancing patient care through technology innovations for six decades. After COBE was founded in 1964, our journey took off to new levels with the acquisition and development of key technologies in three main fields: cardiovascular surgery, dialysis and blood processing. Many of our current devices and technologies have their roots in the pioneering work from this early period. By the mid-1970s, our rapid growth—doubling in size every two years—highlighted our drive for innovation. New products were regularly introduced: dialyzers, dialysis machines, membrane oxygenators and more. Entry into the blood component technology industry started in 1978 when we first developed the Centry TPE membrane system for therapeutic plasma exchange. Through acquisitions and the development of new technologies, we continued to expand our impact. One milestone was the launch of the COBE Spectra Apheresis System in 1988. The system allowed various procedures that required blood component separation. For example, it enabled the collection of platelets from a single donor and the transfusing of the platelets to a cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy. Celebrate with us as we remember our innovation journey, and stay tuned for more insights on how we’re continuing to push the boundaries of patient care! #TerumoProud #60WaysFor60Years #LakewoodCO #DropOfHope #RandD #PatientCare #MedicalInnovation #Apheresis #TPE

It's #ThrowbackThursday 📻 Tune in to this BioInsights podcast from last August, where Dr. Dalip Sethi, PhD, MBA, Commercial Leader, Cell Therapy Technologies, shares his insights on the various factors when choosing a cell culture media. https://bit.ly/3MgSpe1 Key takeaway? The best culture conditions comes from the combination of the right bioreactor and media composition. Getting the right phenotype and number of cells, allowing a cell therapy manufacturer to be able to dose a particular patient or clinical trial participant in the right way is important. #CellTherapy #CGT #CellCulture #CellTherapyManufacturer
