France's Laboratoires Servier and Transgene (Euronext: TNG) have started working together to try to develop simpler, faster and more effective ways of engineering CAR-T cell therapies.

CAR-T cell therapies are the focus of oncological research from Novartis (NOVN: VX), Juno Therapeutics (Nasdaq: JUNO) and Kite Pharma (Nasdaq: KITE). T cells are a subtype of white blood cells that are key to the body's natural immune system.

Strasbourg-based Transgene, which is part of the Institut Mérieux group, is focused on designing and developing immunotherapies based on viral vectors.
