ScaleReady Announces a G-Rex® Grant has been awarded to Immuneel Therapeutics
ST. PAUL, Minn., June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ScaleReady, in collaboration with Wilson Wolf Manufacturing, Bio-Techne Corporation and CellReady, today announced that Immuneel Therapeutics has been awarded a $150,000 G-Rex® Grant to support process development aimed at enhancing the scalability and cost-effectiveness of CAR-T cell manufacturing in India. "The blood cancer burden on India's population is substantial, around 120,000 new cases of lymphoma, leukemia, and multiple myeloma are diagnosed each year. Unfortunately, almost 70,000 Indians will die every year from these afflictions, devastating the lives of their families and communities. To afford access to all Indian patients in need, and to capitalize on the immense commercial potential of our pipeline, we need to think prudently and practically about our manufacturing approach. In the short term, our manufacturing demands are almost 200 drug products per day, and this may increase as CAR-T cell therapies move closer to front line treatment. The only practical way for us to industrialize our production and produce a supply of drug product commensurate with total patient demand is to transition to G-Rex," said Dr. Lakshmikanth Gandikota, Head of R&D, MSAT Intellectual Property, and Translational Research, at Immuneel Therapeutics Limited. "We are extremely impressed by the speed, resourcefulness, creativity, discipline, and entrepreneurialism of the team at Immuneel and are happy to see that India, as a whole, is making significant strides toward CAR-T availability. It gives us a great sense of satisfaction to be in a position to help bring hope to cancer patients in India, one G-Rex at a time," said John Wilson, CEO of Wilson Wolf and co-inventor of G-Rex. As part of Immuneel's G-Rex Grant, they will perform process development, qualification, and validation of a G-Rex based CAR-T cell therapy production approach to dramatically increase the throughput capacity of their state-of-the-art, 12,000 square foot GMP facility. Located in Bengaluru and opened in 2021, Immuneel's Integrated Cell Therapy Development and Manufacturing Facility was the first of its kind in India and is designed to bring breakthrough cell and gene therapies to millions of patients in India. Lastly, Immuneel's G-Rex Grant will support the requisite comparability studies necessary to support a post-CAR-T approval manufacturing change from their difficult to scale low throughput all-in-one manufacturing equipment to a much simpler high throughput G-Rex centric approach. The high popularity of ScaleReady's G-Rex Grant Program led ScaleReady to increase award funds from the original amount of $20M to a total of $30M directed towards saving recipients significant time and money by expediting the path to optimized cell and gene-modified cell therapy manufacturing. Two hundred grants have already been awarded with over 50 new applications in the queue. Each G-Rex Grant recipient can obtain up to $300,000 and gain access to exclusive support from ScaleReady's growing consortium of G-Rex Grant Partners who bring best-in-class tools and technologies as well as unparalleled knowledge and expertise in the areas of cGMP manufacturing, quality and regulatory affairs, CGT business operations, and more.
