The journal <em>Nature Biotechnology<\/em> published a worldwide profile of this sector in its March 2013 issue. The acquisition of the small biotech firm Medarex by the U.S. company Bristol-Myers Squibb and the partnership formed between Britain\u2019s GlaxoSmithKline and two U.S. groups (the MD Anderson Cancer Center at the University of Texas and the company Amplimmune) were two of the endeavors mentioned in the article. The journal also cited the Brazilian firm Recepta Biopharma for its development of immunomodulatory monoclonal antibodies, which promote an increased immune response in patients. Prof. Jos\u00e9 Fernando Perez, former science director at FAPESP, serves as the CEO of Recepta, whose head offices are located in S\u00e3o Paulo. The company has signed cooperation agreements with S\u00e3o Paulo\u2019s Butantan Institute and the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research in New York. Earlier this year, Recepta also signed a partnership agreement with 4-Antibody AG, a Swiss firm that holds the technology to generate and reproduce human antibodies faster and more safely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Global immune response ","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[168],"tags":[247],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-125384","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-technoscience","tag-medicine"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125384","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125384"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125384\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125384"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125384"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125384"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=125384"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
