AstraZeneca’s New CAR T-Cell Therapy Study: A Potential Game-Changer for Multiple Myeloma

AstraZeneca ((AZN)), AstraZeneca plc ((GB:AZN)), AstraZeneca ((DE:ZEGA)), AstraZeneca plc US ((AZNCF)) announced an update on their ongoing clinical study.

AstraZeneca is currently recruiting participants for a Phase 1 study titled ‘A Phase 1 Study of GC012F (AZD0120), a Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR T) Therapy Targeting CD19 and B-cell Maturation Antigen (BCMA) in Early-Line Treatment in Subjects With Multiple Myeloma.’ This study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of the dual CAR T-cell therapy in treating Multiple Myeloma, a significant step in advancing early-line treatment options for this condition.

The intervention being tested is GC012F (AZD0120), a biological treatment designed as a dual CAR T-cell therapy targeting CD19 and BCMA. This innovative approach seeks to improve outcomes for patients with Multiple Myeloma by leveraging the body’s immune system to target and destroy cancer cells.

This interventional study follows a single-group assignment model with no masking, focusing on treatment as the primary purpose. Participants will receive a single infusion of GC012F (AZD0120), allowing researchers to evaluate the therapy’s effects in a controlled setting.

The study began on July 31, 2025, with an initial submission date of July 10, 2025. The latest update was submitted on August 20, 2025. These dates are crucial as they mark the study’s progress and provide a timeline for potential results and subsequent phases.

For investors, this update from AstraZeneca could signal a positive development in the company’s oncology pipeline, potentially boosting stock performance and investor confidence. As the study progresses, its outcomes may influence the competitive landscape in the CAR T-cell therapy market, particularly in the treatment of Multiple Myeloma.

The study is ongoing, and further details can be accessed on the ClinicalTrials portal.
