Are Production Assistance for Cellular Therapies (PACT) centers obligated to provide cells for SCCT?
No. However, many of the criteria considered during the evaluation of a PACT product request will be addressed by either the review of the SCCT applications or the subsequent operating procedures of the SCCT. So while the PACT centers are not obligated to provide cells for the Specialized Centers, SCCT Centers would be in position to submit product request applications to the current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) cell processing facilities that address all of the required criteria listed at the PACT Internet website at http://spitfire.emmes.com/study/scac/products/products.htm.
