Abstract BACKGROUND AIMS:The Multisite Evaluation Study on Analytical Methods for Non-Clinical Safety Assessment of Human-Derived Regenerative Medical Products (MEASURE) is a Japanese experimental public-private partnership initiative, which aims to standardize methodology for tumorigenicity evaluation of human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived cell therapy products (CTPs). Undifferentiated hPSCs possess tumorigenic potential, and thus residual undifferentiated hPSCs are one of the major hazards for the risk of tumor formation from hPSC-derived CTPs. Among currently available assays, a highly efficient culture (HEC) assay is reported to be one of the most sensitive for the detection of residual undifferentiated hPSCs.
METHODS:MEASURE first validated the detection sensitivity of HEC assay and then investigated the feasibility of magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) to improve sensitivity.
RESULTS:The multisite experiments confirmed that the lower limit of detection under various conditions to which the human induced pluripotent stem cell lines and culture medium/substrate were subjected was 0.001%. In addition, MACS concentrated cells expressing undifferentiated cell markers and consequently achieved a detection sensitivity of 0.00002%.
CONCLUSIONS:These results indicate that HEC assay is highly sensitive and robust and that the application of MACS on this assay is a promising tool for further mitigation of the potential tumorigenicity risk of hPSC-derived CTPs.
