Abstract
Despite considerable regulatory and clinical hurdles, the development and use of cell-based
therapies are gaining momentum. As more of these therapies move toward commercial
approval and larger-scale distribution, associated manufacturing and processing technologies
are being advanced. Modern technologies directed at downstream processing seek to
distribute such therapies from the manufacturing site to the patient more efficiently
and reliably. Novel small-scale downstream solutions boost the transformation of cell
therapies from abstraction to reality.
