Cellectis (Nasdaq: CLLS) reported that the FDA has lifted the clinical hold on its partner Allogene Therapeutics’ clinical trials, enabling the resumption of studies for ALLO-501A, an anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy. This decision follows investigations revealing that a chromosomal abnormality found in a single patient was unrelated to TALEN® gene editing or Allogene’s manufacturing process. The abnormality's clinical significance was deemed negligible.
Allogene plans to start a pivotal Phase 2 trial for ALLO-501A in relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma by mid-2022.
Cellectis (Nasdaq: CLLS) announced its 2022 business objectives, focusing on ongoing clinical trials BALLI-01, AMELI-01, and MELANI-01.

Cellectis announced preliminary results from the BALLI-01 Phase 1 study of UCART22, targeting relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL). The study demonstrated that UCART22 can be administered safely after lymphodepletion with FCA, showing no dose-limiting toxicities. Encouraging anti-leukemic activity was observed in 2 out of 6 patients, with one achieving blast reduction to 0%. The trial is currently enrolling at dose level 3. Additionally, preclinical data for TALGlobin01 showed efficient correction of the mutated beta-globulin gene for sickle cell disease.
