G-CSF/Plerixafor Dual-Mobilized Donor Derived CD33CAR T-Cells as Potent and Effective AML Therapy in Pre-Clinical Models
There has been an increasing appreciation of the value of cell phenotype in CAR-T approaches, and the HLA-matched healthy donor cells are a potentially superior cell phenotype with improved persistence and in vivo expansion ability.
VCAR33ALLO Clinical Development
We plan to study VCAR33ALLO in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial in older patients. The clinical trial will run in two phases: the first phase, which is expected to enroll approximately 12 patients, is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose of VCAR33ALLO using a 3+3 trial design; the second phase, which is expected to enroll up to 12 patients, is an expansion phase designed to evaluate the rate of clinical response to treatment.
We plan to submit an investigational new drug (IND) application in the first half of 2023 to support a Phase 1/2 clinical trial for patients with relapsed/refractory AML.
