Glow Up Works Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Hidekazu Izumiyama) has launched the "CPC Construction Support Center," a specialized website for supporting the construction of Cell Processing Centers (CPCs) for medical institutions that perform regenerative medicine and medical corporations considering establishing a new CPC.

● Growing Demand for CPCs Accompanying the Expansion of the Regenerative Medicine Market
In recent years, attention to regenerative medicine, including PRP therapy and stem cell treatments, has increased, and the introduction of regenerative medicine is progressing in various departments such as orthopedics, plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery, and internal medicine.
On the other hand, building a Cell Processing Center (CPC) requires specialized knowledge in a wide range of areas, including:
- Facility layout design - Cleanroom design - Workflow design - Equipment selection - Cell culture technology - Establishment of a quality management system - Compliance with the Act on Safety of Regenerative Medicine
Furthermore, cases often require investments on the scale of tens of millions of yen. As a result of proceeding with plans without sufficient knowledge or experience, issues such as:
- Over-investment in equipment - Facility design that does not consider actual operation - Inability to train culture personnel - Stagnation of operations after facility completion
have frequently occurred.
Leveraging our track record in supporting the introduction and application of regenerative medicine, we have established the "CPC Construction Support Center," a specialized website for medical institutions to support CPC construction.
● Practical Support System Through a Network of Experts
The CPC Construction Support Center has established a collaborative system with experts who have experience in building and operating actual cell processing facilities.
We provide support with actual operations in collaboration with Mr. Uozumi, a CPC design/introduction consultant and culture personnel training consultant at ReGENET Inc., and Mr. Sakuma, a cell biology expert and cell processing facility manager.
We offer comprehensive support for the optimal CPC construction for each medical institution, going beyond mere facility design and application support, by considering aspects such as:
- What kind of cell-processed products will be manufactured? - What scale of facility is appropriate? - What equipment is necessary? - How will quality control be performed? - Who will be responsible for the culture operations?
● Services Provided
1. Support for Manufacturing Content Review
First, we organize the planned cell-processed products and business plan, and then consider the facility scale and equipment requirements.
2. CPC Design Support
We support aspects such as:
- Layout design - Workflow design for people and materials - Cleanliness level design - Zoning design - Design considering future expansion
3. Equipment Selection Support
We select equipment according to the manufacturing content, including:
- Safety cabinets - CO2 incubators - Centrifuges - Freezing and storage equipment - Environmental monitoring devices
4. Construction Company Selection Support
We support appropriate investment decisions by providing:
- Quotation comparisons - Specification checks - Elimination of redundant equipment - Cost optimization proposals
5. Support for Creating Culture Protocols
We support the development of necessary items for cell culture operations, such as:
- Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) - Quality management system - Record formats
6. Culture Personnel Training Support
We support personnel responsible for culture operations in:
- Culture technique education - Quality management education - Establishment of operational systems
7. Regenerative Medicine Application Support
We provide comprehensive support for applications under the Act on Safety of Regenerative Medicine, including:
- Preparation of provision plans - Handling of specific certified regenerative medicine committees - Handling of regional bureaus - Change applications - Periodic reporting
The key to CPC construction is "operability," not just "construction."
A cell processing facility is not complete when it is finished.
It is important to stably manufacture cell-processed products and continue to operate safely.
We emphasize support that considers operations after facility completion, providing one-stop support for facility design, equipment introduction, application, culture personnel education, and operational system construction.
● Future Outlook
In the future, we plan to expand content such as:
- CPC construction cost simulator - Equipment selection checklist - CPC construction guide - Regenerative medicine introduction case studies - Regenerative medicine related seminars
We aim to contribute to the advancement of the regenerative medicine field and the sustainable growth of medical institutions.
