About

Cell therapies hold promise in a wide range of diseases. However, several challenges limit their therapeutic potential, including development of critically short telomeres. During the cell therapy manufacturing process, normal human cells are forced to expand rapidly, resulting in significant telomere shortening. This effect may reduce a cell's lifespan and limits the long-term favorable outcome for patients. Telos Biotech has developed an approach that is designed to rapidly and safely lengthen the shortest telomeres, helping to ensure that engineered cells are therapeutically robust: Telovance™.
