GC Cell CEO James Park stated: “This partnership is a testament to the global recognition of our cell therapy expertise, first established in Korea.

“By combining GC Cell’s integrated value chain in cell and gene therapy with Bifarma’s strong market presence and capabilities in Indonesia, we are poised to rapidly capture a leading position in the burgeoning field of anti-cancer cell therapies.”

GC Cell intends to leverage the wide-ranging infrastructure of the Kalbe Group in the region. The group comprises cold chain logistics and an extensive hospital network, which can expedite the introduction of Immuncell-LC beyond the Korean market.

PT Bifarma Adiluhung president director Dr Sandy Qlintang stated: “We are pleased to announce that Bifarma, through our cell therapy division ReGeniC, has entered into a MOU with GC Cell, a pioneering biopharmaceutical company from Korea.

“The strategic collaboration represents a significant milestone for both organisations and reinforces our mission to offer advanced, safe and high-quality cell therapy.”
