The new website and visual identity embody a mission to make the revolutionary promise of gene therapy a reality for patients worldwide, challenging industry norms in pursuit of both health equity and scientific excellence.
"Vector BioMed spun out of Caring Cross to shift the conversation and relationship developers have with CDMOs," said Boro Dropulić, PhD MBA, Vector BioMed CEO, "Our new brand embodies our continued commitment to support all that are seeking a path to treat patients by various means. Our growing platform and services provide one giant leap for the CGT industry and back a mission of treatment access."
One Lentiviral Vector Platform, Two Paths to Advance Cures
The expanded LENTIVERSE™ platform integrates decades of hands-on experience, offering a comprehensive solution for both CAR-T manufacturing and custom vector design to meet the unique needs of specific therapeutic payloads.
VectorCraft: A platform-based custom lentivirus development and manufacturing service that integrates decades of industry-pioneering expertise to deliver high functional titers and a faster, more cost-effective path from concept to clinic and beyond. Each vector is tailored to its therapeutic target through streamlined development workflows and predictive scale-down models that mirror full-scale performance, ensuring operational efficiency. The platform offers an IND-ready lentivirus vector solution with transparent economics and no hidden long-term licensing fees or royalties, contributing to up to a 50% reduction in CGMP costs against average market costs.
LaunchSuite: A complete, ready-to-deploy solution for generic CAR-T manufacturing. Provides fully characterized CGMP vectors for anti-CD19 and anti-BCMA targets, documentation, and decentralized cell manufacturing process workflows. Designed to simplify CAR-T deployment at point-of-care, LaunchSuite supports cost-effective autologous cell therapy and enables the ability to manufacture CAR-T, anywhere. Behind anti-CD19 is a full pipeline of proprietary products for CAR-T manufacturing to be launched starting in 2026.
Lentiviral Vectors, Reduced to Practice. Driven by Impact.
"From its inception, Vector BioMed has worked to build a universe of tools, features and capabilities that enable LV product developers," said Michael Kadan, PhD MBA, Vector BioMed COO, "It's exciting to see it all come together as the LENTIVERSE. And even more exciting to imagine the new therapies that await."
LENTIVERSE™ is defined by three pillars:
