Currently, patient dosing is underway for the company-sponsored Phase 1b/2 trial in the U.S., with more sites to be activated in the near term…we highlighted the 100% MRD- sCR rate among the 19 NDMM patients treated with GC012F, combined with a highly favorable safety profile. We look forward to presenting an update with more details at ASH 2023,” commented Wei Cao, founder, CEO. “We are highly optimistic about CAR-T’s transformative potential in treating autoimmune diseases. GC012F is ideally positioned as a game-changing candidate combining its CD19/BCMA dual-targeting capability, faster and consistent product delivery, and safety track record from 60 patients treated in several IITs. Today, we are delighted to share compelling data from translational research on the IIT patient samples, supporting the strong scientific rational of using GC012F to treat SLE. Our team is diligently focused on advancing the clinical development in rSLE, including furthering the IIT study and submitting the IND filings in the US and China this year. “
