The Company will present data of key therapeutic mechanisms of activity for autoimmune diseases, including B cell depletion, tissue infiltration and immune reconstitution, from its Phase 1 study of FT819 in relapsed / refractory B-cell malignancies. FT819 is the Company’s off-the-shelf, CD19-targeted, iPSC-derived CAR T-cell program, which is also being investigated in a Phase 1 study for patients with moderate-to-severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) including lupus nephritis and extrarenal lupus (NCT06308978). In addition, the Company will highlight preclinical data from its off-the-shelf, iPSC-derived, CAR T-cell product platform for solid tumors, with an oral presentation of a novel MICA/B-targeted CAR T-cell product candidate that is designed to target a broad array of tumor types and to overcome immune cell evasion by shedding of stress ligands.
Accepted abstracts are available on the ASGCT (Free ASGCT Whitepaper) Annual Meeting website. Presentations details are as follows:
