XNK Therapeutics today announced that it has received a GMP manufacturing license and a certificate of GMP compliance from the Swedish Medical Products Agency, which means that the company can produce at scale for its planned clinical studies.

"We are very happy to receive this license. It is an important milestone for XNK, and we are now well positioned for significant value creation with three to four potential phase I/II readouts in our pipeline over the coming three years. The in-house GMP facility provides us with valuable capacity, flexibility and control over our clinical manufacturing which brings competitive advantages going forward. In addition, the close collaboration and proximity between manufacturing and research & innovation ensures efficient process development and organizational learning," said Johan Liwing, CEO, XNK Therapeutics.
