State of Producer Cell Development for Lentiviral Vector Manufacturing: Despite many development challenges, stable producer cell lines show real promise.

The article discusses the advantages and challenges of using lentiviral vectors (LVVs) for the production of adoptive cell therapies. It mentions that LVVs offer benefits such as stable and long-term gene expression in target cells, efficient transduction of various cell types, and the potential for engineering safety features. It also mentions that to simplify LVV production and reduce costs, there is significant interest in developing stable producer cell lines.
