B Cell Design SAS

B Cell Design, an alternative to disease state plasma B Cell Design (BCD) is a company involved in two main areas: - therapeutic field with a vaccine candidate to HIV and other infectious diseases and a drug candidate to colorectal cancer. - In vitro diagnostic field with human chimeric monoclonal antibodies due to be used as positive controls or calibrators in IVD kits as alternative to characterized disease state plasma. BCD was founded in 2007 with the mission of promoting a new approach to mucosal immunotherapies using IgA monoclonal antibodies. Using this technology, BCD has been developing two therapeutic molecules: a vaccine candidate in infectious disease as well as a drug candidate against colorectal cancer. Thanks to this knowledge on IgA monoclonal antibodies, BCD has expanded its technology and platform (exclusive licensee of HAMIGA® and Gammaprim® and co-owner of InEps®) in order to manufacture IgA, IgG, IgM and IgE human chimeric monoclonal antibodies . BCD and particularly Arkab, a BCD division which opened in 2015 to lead its IVD development, is now able to provide a wide range of services to produce human chimeric antibodies suitable for diagnostic kits in academic laboratories and industrial research departments in Diagnostic and Pharmaceutical companies. B Cell Design/Arkab is now extending its R&D activity to offer a wide range of products in replacement of disease state plasma including anti-infectious (viral, bacterial, parasitic), autoimmunity , allergy , and food intolerance .
