In recent developments, GC Cell has expanded its global footprint through strategic partnerships and business agreements. In 2024, it entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with Lukas Biomedical to jointly develop cell therapies targeting Korean and Taiwanese markets. In 2025, GC Cell began dosing patients in a Phase 1 clinical trial for GCC2005, a CAR-NK therapy for T-cell lymphoma, and signed a key partnership with PT Bifarma Adiluhung for technology transfer of Immuncell-LC in Indonesia. In October 2025, GC Cell formed a partnership with IASO Bio to commercialize CAR-T therapy for multiple myeloma in Korea, marking a major step in its global strategy for cell therapy commercialization. It also completed a process transfer agreement with US-based BioCentriq to bring Immuncell-LC to the U.S. market, enhancing its international presence. The company was formerly known as Green Cross Lab Cell Corporation and changed its name to GC Cell Corporation in November 2021. These strategic moves reinforce GC Cell's position as a global leader in advanced cell and gene therapy and its commitment to expanding innovative treatment options worldwide.
