Cell & Gene: The Podcast Host, Erin Harris, talks to Orca Bio CEO and Co-Founder Nathaniel Fernhoff as he recounts the company’s origins and evolution, tracing its roots to pioneering stem cell research at Stanford University and Dr. Irv Weissman's lab. Seeking to create safer, more effective cures for blood cancers such as AML, ALL, and MDS, Orca Bio developed high-precision cell therapies that utilize purified regulatory T cells and stem cells to minimize complications, such as graft-versus-host disease. Orca Bio spun out of academia to establish its own scalable production platform and clinical pipeline, and Fernhoff explains Orca's flagship product, Orca T, which recently achieved a pivotal milestone by outperforming standard stem cell transplants in a Phase 3 trial.
