Asia Regional Executive Committee Webinar on September 3, 2025

Member Exclusive 2025 Webinar: ISCT ESP Mentoring Program Kick-Off Call

This webinar will explore the emerging role of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in musculoskeletal research and regenerative medicine. Participants will gain insight into iPSCs, with a focus on their application in treating musculoskeletal diseases. The session will highlight recent advances, technical challenges, and ethical considerations associated with translating iPSC technology into clinical practice.

Join us for the ISCT MMST Educational Webinar on "Visible Particulates in Cell and Gene Therapy: Challenges and Perspectives in Risk Assessment," scheduled for November 13, 2025. This session, sponsored by Gateway Analytical, seeks to explore the unique challenges posed by visible particulates in low-unit cell and gene therapy (CGT) batches. As regulatory concerns mount and traditional standards fall short, our expert panel will share insights from various stakeholders, including manufacturers, service providers, and regulatory consultants. Discover the operational impacts of lot rejection, learn about best practices for managing particulate risk, and delve into regulatory expectations. This webinar will focus on practical strategies and best practices while providing actionable approaches for managing visible particulates. Participants will gain valuable insights into navigating these challenges in their work, ultimately leading to improved outcomes in cell and gene therapy manufacturing. Join us to engage with industry leaders, identify knowledge gaps, and contribute to a dialogue that prioritizes patient safety while addressing the complexities of CGT manufacturing. Don't miss this opportunity to be part of an essential conversation shaping the future of cell and gene therapy quality standards!

Asia is rapidly emerging as a powerhouse in cell and gene therapy development, offering a dynamic market with strong government commitment, cutting-edge research hubs, competitive supply chain options and pricing models, and more importantly increasing patient demand. However, entering and thriving in this diverse region requires a strategic understanding of its complex regulatory landscape, market access challenges, and funding ecosystem.

The International Society for Cell & Gene Therapy (ISCT) is the leading global organization advancing cell and gene therapies by connecting academia, industry, and regulators to drive clinical translation and responsible commercialization. The ISCT SCA Industry Town Hall aims to strengthen collaboration between industry stakeholders in South & Central America and ISCT’s global network. The session will feature Vincenzo Di Cerbo from the ISCT Industry Committee, who will present the benefits of ISCT Industry Membership, and Dr. Maroun Khoury from Chile’s IMPACT Center, who will share insights on regional innovation in CGT. This event provides a platform for engagement, knowledge exchange, and strategic growth, underscoring ISCT’s commitment to supporting companies in navigating the clinical, commercial, and regulatory landscapes of cell and gene therapy across Latin America.

South Africa is at the forefront of advancing cellular and gene therapies, driving research, innovation, and equitable access. This webinar will explore the country’s significant contributions to the field, highlighting key developments, regulatory frameworks, and the path toward safe and accessible treatments.
