Group Practice

The doctors of the group practice for cell therapy

are specialists in different areas (gynecology, surgery, radiology and general practitioners), whose individual practices are in different areas of Germany.

We have in common that in addition to our individual specialties we all have been working in the field of cell-based immunotherapy for many years.

Our goal, to harness new knowledge in the field of immunology for our patients, led us to form the group practice for cell therapy.

Like many other „universal“ treatment modes (surgery, radiation and drug therapy) are used across specialties, we are using new discoveries about the elements of the immune system to use it as a tool to treat a variety of different diseases.

To be able to constantly work at the highest technological and scientific level we have build a laboratory facility in Duderstadt in 2011, which manufactures the different cellular therapeutics.

In 2012 our laboratory has been granted a manufacturing license for somatic cellular therapies in accordance with §13 subsection 1 of the German drug law by the federal authorities.
