NKCL Bio Group researches and develops immune cell therapy using NK immune cells based on its excellent technical skills. It is leading the mass production and popularization of immune cell therapies.

Started with the stem-cell research, NKCL Bio group had been successfully managing various health-care businesses such as Anti-aging, Blood-purification, and skin cares through a medical center. The company currently focuses its efforts on immune cell treatment using NK cells, which is in charge of innate immunity of a human body.

NK Cell (Natural Killer Cell) is a strong immunocyte that removes abnormal cells created everyday within our body, as well as the bacteria from the outside sources. NK immune cell treatment, known as the next-generation cancer treatment, is able to find and eliminate the cancer stem cells which causes recurrence and metastasis. In an early stage, cancer can be suppressed using the immunity.

NKCL Bio Group had developed automatic cell culture system with AI technology to find the optimal environment for the cell growth. The data and know-how of the researcher is taught to a machine to prevent human errors and data leakage. The productivity has been boosted to mass produce and popularize the immune cell therapy.

NKCL is differentiated in technology as well. NKCL has optimal recipes for cell culture and one can examine the NK cell ratio of before and after the culture using FACS (Fluorescence-activated cell sorting). Another Key technology is the targeted therapy. NK cell attacks both abnormal cells and cancer cells. In order to maximize the cancer combatting ability, NKCL’s NK cells can focus the attack on the cancer cells with the input data. 

NKCL Bio Group has started the construction of Automated NK Cell culture system that has a scale of 3500 sqm on December last year. It will receive GMP Authorization as a cell culture facility. With regards to ‘Advanced Medicine Law’, we are putting all our efforts on finalizing the construction and expanding the cell therapy business.
