The goal of this workshop is to discuss the preclinical and translational safety assessment of engineered T cell therapies. The workshop will focus on six topics, followed by an in-depth discussion:
- Designing engineered T cells for optimal activity and safety
- Target expression and associated liability assessment
- In vivo models informing safety and activity
- Safety of viral and non-viral gene delivery systems – utility, risk of genomic injury
- Linking preclinical development with the clinical experience
- Regulatory considerations

Time: 13.00 - 18.00 PST
Location: Broad CIRM Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at USC
First Floor, Seminar Room #101
1425 San Pablo Street, Los Angeles, CA 90033
After the success of the 2018 CIRM/IABS “4th Cell Therapy Conference: Manufacturing and Testing of Pluripotent Stem Cells” and the associated HESI CT-TRACS tumorigenicity workshop (conference report: Abbot et al. 2018), five organizations have come together to continue the discussion and address bottlenecks associated with the manufacturing and testing of pluripotent stem cell-based therapies.
The Pluripotent Stem Cells Manufacturing Meeting 2019 (PSCM2019) will be held on 30 June 2019 at the Broad CIRM Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at USC (Los Angeles, California), following the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) 2019 Annual Meeting. For more information, please contact Lucilia Mouriès (lmouries@hesiglobal.org).
This event is co-hosted by the following organizations:
