French biotech TxCell (Euronext Paris: TXCL) has received a patent covering all redirected, genetically engineered T regulatory cells (CAR Tregs) and their use in the suppression of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases from the European Patent Office.
As a result, TxCell has exercised its option and signed an exclusive worldwide licensing agreement with Yeda Research and Development, the technology transfer arm of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, and owner of the patent.
This means TxCell has now been granted exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize CAR-Treg products for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, as covered by the patent family.
