Regenetech licenses cellXpansion to KSCB

21 January 2008

US stem cell specialist Regenetech has licensed its proprietary stem cell expansion technology cellXpansion to the Korea Stem Cell Bank company. The deal covers the latter's use of cellXpansion in South Korea and, following last year's agreement with Mexico's Regenevita (Marketletter November 12, 2007), is the latest in a series of country-specific licenses that the US firm has granted.

David Bonner, chief executive of the Houston-headquartered firm, said that he was delighted that "KSCB has chosen to partner with Regenetech and our strong cellXpansion technology in order to expand stem cells." He went on to say that deals of this type, financial terms of which were not disclosed, are integral to the company's future development.
