Releases Details

Gaithersburg, Maryland – January 2, 2018: MaxCyte announced today that Debra K. Bowes, Executive Vice President, Business and Strategic Development, will present at two life sciences conferences this month: the Biotech Showcase on January 8 at 3:30 p.m. Pacific Time (Hotel Union Square, San Francisco) and Phacilitate Immuno-Oncology Frontiers World on January 23 (Hyatt Regency, Miami, FL) at 2:50 p.m. Eastern Time.

Ms. Bowes will present and discuss MaxCyte’s next-generation autologous CAR (chimeric antigen receptor) therapies. In her presentation, Ms. Bowes will focus on how MaxCyte’s breakthrough immuno-oncology CAR therapeutic platform has the ability to engineer transient persistence to mitigate off-tumor toxicity and significantly reduce the turnaround time of autologous cell therapy to patients.

“We are delighted to share the remarkable progress we’ve made with our novel and proprietary CAR platform and CAR therapies for a broad range of targets and cancers – including solid tumors, while reducing potential adverse events that have plagued previous CAR technologies,” said Doug Doerfler, MaxCyte President & CEO. “Our goal is to advance our first CAR therapy into the clinic in the first half of the new year, and we are excited to have a forum to share our new and upcoming developments at two conferences this month.”
