Does it take as long to manufacture a TCR as it does a CAR T cell? They take around the same amount of time, but again, the CARs are a little more advanced in clinical application, both for myeloma as well as other blood cancers. I don't think there's been quite as much effort and success to rapidly make TCR Ts. They're still very much in the investigational or experimental stage. But since we use the same sort of technology to manufacture them using viruses that deliver the genetic material into the T cell, they really are similar, should be similar in terms of the amount of time that they require to produce.
