VectorBuilder and MaxCyte formed a strategic partnership focused on co-developing a new gene delivery solution using VectorBuilder’s MiniVec™ plasmid system and MaxCyte’s clinical electroporation platform for ex vivo cell engineering. Officials at both companies say that ex vivo cell therapies such as CAR-T, CAR-NK, and iPSC-based treatments have gained significant traction, but critical challenges in safety and manufacturability continue to limit their broader application.
