Learn MoreThe redirection of T cells towards tumor cells involves ex vivo engineering of T cells to express cancer-antigen specific T cell receptors (TCRs), resulting in the production of TCR-engineered T cells (TCR-T). Alfa Cytology is dedicated to the development of effective bladder cancer-specific TCR-T cell therapies.
TCR-T (T-cell receptor-engineered T cell) therapy is a cutting-edge approach in the treatment of bladder cancer, leveraging the body's immune system to specifically target and eliminate cancer cells. This therapy involves engineering a patient's T cells to express T-cell receptors (TCRs) that recognize specific antigens presented by cancer cells. Unlike other therapies, TCR-T therapy can target intracellular proteins that are processed and presented on the cell surface by MHC molecules, offering a broader range of targetable antigens. This specificity enhances the precision of the therapy, potentially leading to more effective and durable responses in bladder cancer treatment.

Alfa Cytology's TCR-T cell therapy development services encompass the entire process from target identification to preclinical evaluation. We collaborate with leading research institutions worldwide and leverage advanced technologies and methodologies to ensure efficiency and accuracy at every step.
Utilizing advanced genomic and proteomic techniques, we identify tumor-specific antigens that are ideal targets for TCR-T therapy.
Our rigorous validation process ensures that the identified targets are highly specific to bladder cancer cells, minimizing off-target effects.
Using cutting-edge technologies, we isolate and characterize T-cell receptors that specifically target bladder cancer antigens.
Our team optimizes TCR affinity and specificity to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of the engineered T-cells.
We perform in vitro assays to assess the functionality, specificity, and cytotoxicity of engineered T-cells against bladder cancer cells
Utilizing clinically relevant bladder cancer models, we assess the therapeutic potential and safety profile of the TCR-T cells in vivo.
We employ advanced flow cytometry and cytokine profiling techniques to monitor the immune response of TCR-T cells post-infusion, ensuring robust and sustained anti-tumor activity.
Our comprehensive biomarker analysis services identify and validate predictive biomarkers
