Immunogenicity
We will assess the immunogenicity of your advanced therapies throughout the preclinical and clinical stages.
Evaluating Immunogenicity in Genetic Medicine
Characterizing immunogenicity is critical to developing safe and effective advanced therapies, including genetic medicines. Antibodies against adeno‑associated viruses (AAVs), whether from natural infection or vector administration, can impact therapeutic efficacy. Neutralizing antibodies, in particular, can diminish the effectiveness of AAV-based treatments. Immune responses can range from no clinical effect to severe, life-threatening reactions involving innate and adaptive immunity.
World-Class Immunology Support for Your Research and GLP Projects
Our team has helped establish the immunobiology foundation of in vivo gene therapy and vaccines, with over 130 published papers to date. We bring extensive experience supporting preclinical studies across a variety of species, including rodents, minipigs, and nonhuman primates, as well as clinical studies in humans. Franklin Biolabs’ Immunology Core serves as a global reference laboratory, offering validated assays for the comprehensive evaluation of humoral and cellular immune responses before and after gene therapy administration.
