Starting Smart: How to Structure an Integrated Supply Chain in Early-Stage CGT Programs
For many academic labs, technology spinouts, and early-stage CGT companies, the temperature-controlled supply chain feels like something to figure out later. But when dealing with highly sensitive starting materials and therapies like CGTs, later can quickly become too late. Whether you’re preparing for first-in-human trials or just beginning to plan for scale, integrated thinking now can spare you time, cost, and complexity later.

Clinical Trials Day: Supporting the Journey from Discovery to Delivery
Clinical trials represent hope, innovation, and the pursuit of better outcomes. They are the backbone of developing new diagnostics, vaccines, devices, and therapies. They help ensure safety, efficacy, and accessibility to the people who need them. That's why each year on May 20, the community comes together to celebrate Clinical Trials Day, honoring the anniversary of the first randomized clinical trial. At Cryoport Systems, we are honored to support our partners and clients in this journey.

Optimizing Cryopreservation for Leukapheresis: Advancing Cell and Gene Therapy Supply Chains
The supply chain for fresh leukapheresis is one of the most complex logistical challenges in cell and gene therapy (CGT). As a critical starting material, leukapheresis must be collected from donors, processed, and transported within a limited time window. These challenges increase variability and risk, ultimately impacting the success of advanced therapies. Alexandre Michaux, Process Development & MSAT Manager at IntegriCell™ , recently presented his work on the development of an automated cryopreservation process for leukapheresis in a Poster Presentation at Advanced Therapies Congress in London.
