TC BioPharm CEO Bryan Kobel stated: “We are pleased to further expand our patent portfolio at TCBP with this European patent for modified gamma delta t-cells. 

“TCBP continues to focus on our immediate applications for TCB008 while developing future high-value gamma delta assets for other indications such as solid tumours.

“We believe gamma deltas can be a high-impact therapeutic when modified with the potential to outpace current CAR [chimeric antigen receptor] and modified t-cells in safety and efficacy, patent protecting these approaches gives us a competitive moat and further value in a potential acquisition scenario.”

In a related financial update, TCBP successfully closed an upsized public offering.
