Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

3. OUR PROJECTS FOCUS ON
• Aid to women and children victims of abuse, violence, trafficking. We offer
shelter, legal and psychological counseling, training, assistance in finding a job.
• Community development through Income Generating Programs managed by
women in areas affected by poverty and high unemployment.
• Social services in areas where local governments do not provide for the basic
needs of the population: healthcare, HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment,
nutrition programs, orphanages, shelters for single mothers.
• Fair Trade Programs to help women and their families out of poverty through
handcrafting work.
• Education and Vocational Training especially for girls and women at risk.
• Emergency relief for war refugees and victims of natural disasters.
• Education to Justice and Peace: campaigns, seminars, networking with local
partners; lobbying at national and international level on women’s rights and
against human trafficking.
To support this initiative, The Good Shepherd International Foundation will collaborate
with Sharing Fair – an international network of solidarity constructed by the Good
Shepherd Sisters for more than 20 years in Australia, USA, and Europe – to present
traditionally hand-crafted products created at their international missionsat charity
fairs, markets and other Fair Trade initiatives. The prime objective of Sharing Fair in
Italy is to tell the stories and celebrate the work of the thousands of women that even
while living in adverse conditions of poverty, violence, and isolation still manage to
create admirable handy-crafts by means of traditional techniques using raw or
discarded recycled materials.
For these reasons, their products tell stories and reflect their dignity, determination, and
hope. Thanks to Sharing Fair, these women manage to break the cycle of poverty and
manifest their creativity and talents by believing in themselves and in a hopeful future.
“As an NGO in consultative status at the UN, we work toward
the realization of gender equality and we affirm the need
to prioritize women and girls’ equal access to education, full

4. ECONOMIC JUSTICE
FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN
For women and children in most parts of the world, poverty is the major enemy.
Whether this poverty is caused by the behavior of governments or major global
economic players, by war and violence, by natural disasters, or by the corruption
of national leaders – the effect on the lives of the people is the same.
They suffer malnutrition, ill health, unemployment, illiteracy, homelessness, anxiety
for the future of their children. Women and children are the ones most likely to bear
the heaviest burdens of poverty.
Many countries with underdeveloped economies cannot offer social protection
to the most vulnerable who are unemployed or whose income is severely reduced
because of the decline in the demand for unskilled labor, the soaring prices of food
and the loss of land, to name but a few factors.
On the other hand, globalization offers new possibilities for cooperation. Good
Shepherd partners work in more than 70 countries to maximize these possibilities,
providing economic opportunities and independence for women, access to
education for children living on the streets or in remote rural villages.

5. Good Shepherd partners run income generating programs, micro-finance and fair
trade projects since 1997 in cooperation with women living in poor communities,
helping them break the cycle of poverty by using their skills and cultural traditions
to market and sell authentic crafts. These women gain economic independence
and justice for themselves through dignified work in cooperatives and associations.
Many of these projects need help in opening or strengthening markets outside
their local areas.
With the support of a global network of partners we want to play our part in helping
globalization work for the poor of the world.
HOW WE OPERATE
• We improve access to basic services such as shelter, clean water, food, healthy
living conditions, literacy for women and children living in the poorest rural
communities and in the city slums of, to name a few, Sudan, Senegal, Angola,
Mozambique, Kenya, India, Thailand, Myanmar, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua,
El Salvador, Brasil, Chile, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador.
• We offer concrete opportunities to gain economic independence employing
women in Income Generating Programs in Kenya, Bolivia, Mexico, Uruguay,
Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Senegal, Thailand, Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka,
Philippines, Paraguay.
• Our micro-economic projects combine vocational training, micro-credit and
marketing to obtain long-term effects for the women and their families.
• We strive to widen and strengthen our fair trade markets for crafts produced
by our partners in Philippines, Madagascar, Kenya, Thailand, Peru, Paraguay, Chile,
Sri Lanka, Senegal, Mexico, India, Indonesia, Ecuador.
• We run protection programs for street and working children in Colombia, Chile,
Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, Nepal and India, providing them with life skills, access to
education and vocational training.
To all our partners we offer training, counseling and economic support to expand
and improve their skills, develop creative ways of processing products, by gaining
access to national and international markets so as to improve the incomes of
their families.
“(…) having helped thousands of individual girls out of chronic
poverty through a wide variety of education, training and
micro-finance programs we affirm that time has come to have
systemic and structural change. A girl-centered, rights based
participatory approach to development is the way forward.”

THE STORY OF LUCY
one of the beneficiaries of the Kiondo Basket Weaving project in Embu, Kenya
Lucy has been married for fifteen years and she has enjoyed her marital rights until her
husband died. According to the traditional habits of Embu people, the brother of the
husband inherits his widow.
Lucy stood firm on her Christian values and nothing could convince her
to compromise her faith for the sake of traditional culture. As a result, she was kicked out
of her house together with her five children and her property was taken away by the brother-
in-law. She went to her parent’s home and she was not accepted by her own brothers.
Traditional culture dictates that women cannot inherit property from their parents either.
She went to seek legal assistance, but at the same time she needed a shelter for her family.
For more than two years her case has been carried forward.
Lucy rented a small to shelter her family of five, but she was unemployed. She had little
alternative to prostitution which she embraced without the consent of her conscience.
She talks about it with a lot of pain and tears.
Lucy’s story is the story of hundreds of women in Karurina village, near Embu.
Thanks to the Good Shepherd Sisters’ “Kiondo basket weaving project” 10 of these women
have now a chance to get training and credit to begin small businesses in basket weaving.

6. WORK AGAINST
HUMAN TRAFFICKING
AND VIOLENCE ON WOMEN
AND CHILDREN
The Good Shepherd Sisters have a proven track record in working to eliminate the
commercial sexual exploitation of women and children in Europe, USA, Latin
America, Asia and Australia.
To reinforce its actions at the global level, the Good Shepherd Sisters have
established an NGO office at the United Nations which runs campaigns and advocacy
initiatives encouraging the international community to take concrete actions allowing
women and children everywhere to enjoy their fundamental rights, free from all forms
of commercial sexual exploitation.
We know that a significant portion of those who end up being trafficked originate as
economic migrants, refugees and displaced people.
At present, human trafficking is a $10-billion-plus growth industry with estimates
ranging from 700,000 to 2 million people (primarily women and children) trafficked
into slave labor or sexual exploitation annually.
Good Shepherd people’s approach to this phenomenon is based on the development
of the whole person. Through various responses, according to specific needs and
different legal frameworks, our projects offer shelter, healthcare, education and
training to victims of trafficking to effect positive and long-term changes in their lives.
This is made possible, in the first place, by helping them grow towards a sense of self-
worth, by treating psychological traumas and illnesses (especially for women with
HIV/AIDS), then developing literacy and professional skills as well as providing day
care for the women’s children and for orphans.
Our partners run programs worldwide raising awareness of violence and abuse by
helping women to improve their health, by informing them of their reproductive
rights, and by challenging the traditional customs that are harmful to them, such as
child marriage and dowries.
With the support of our global network we wish to play our part in offering concrete
alternatives to break the cycle of trafficking and abuse of women.

THE STORY OF C., FROM THE PHILIPPINES
My story began when I was 17 and I ran away from home and entered the sex trade in
Olongapo. It was through the bar visits of the Good Shepherd Sisters’ organization TW-
MAE-W that I have been sought out. I was convinced to attend courses at their drop-in
centre and before long I agreed to apply for the second phase of the program in Quezon City.
I realized how lucky I was to be given a chance like this.
I was determined not to go back to prostitution ever again. I told myself no matter what I
had to undergo, there was something for me in this organization.
Although there were times when I felt like quitting, I held on. In 1992, I was given a chance
to be a Group Aide. From then on more blessings came my way.
For instance, I received a scholarship to finish high school and attend college. Then I took
a driving licence and training in computer and acupressure.
I was among the 24 girls that attended the NGO Forum on Women in Huairou, China, in
1995. No less than Queen Fabiola and her Belgian entourage graced our presentation.
We received a standing ovation. In 2004, I spoke at the World Social Forum in Mumbai,
India. I gave public testimony that building “Another World is Possible” based on my
experience at TW-MAE-W which thought me that another world for the sexually exploited
and abused women is possible.
I spoke with great confidence on behalf of women who had passed from darkness to light.
