It's important to remember we are not only waiting for the growth of the WCB's (working cell banks). We are also waiting for the encapsulation process of those cells, followed by the testing and validation of those cells, which will then provide the summary of information required by the FDA to be included with the IND application.

I don't know what the specific growth rate is for cells expressing a chemotherapeutic activating enzyme, but I'm quite certain a WCB of those cells is going to require, at the minimum, a few months of production time.

Here is some interesting reading while we wait:
