Century Therapeutics presented interim results from its Phase 1 ELiPSE-1 study at the ASCO 2024 Annual Meeting. The study evaluates CNTY-101, an iPSC-derived NK cell therapy, in patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma. CNTY-101 demonstrated a manageable safety profile with no dose-limiting toxicities or graft-versus-host disease and showed encouraging preliminary efficacy. The trial's novel cell-free DNA method indicates CNTY-101 persists outside the bloodstream. The study continues with dose escalation at higher levels, aiming to further validate safety and efficacy.
Century Therapeutics presented preclinical data at the ASGCT Annual Meeting, showcasing advancements in their iPSC platform technology and programs. The data highlighted the potential of their lead candidate, CNTY-101, in treating B-cell driven autoimmune diseases like SLE. Additionally, the company introduced a novel synthetic ligand targeting CD300a to prevent NK mediated rejection in allogeneic cell therapies. These developments aim to enhance the efficacy, durability, and tolerability of their iPSC candidates, offering promising treatment options across various indications.
Century Therapeutics reported its first quarter 2024 financial results, with plans to expand into additional autoimmune disease indications beyond SLE with their iPSC derived NK cell therapy, CNTY-101. They closed a $60 million private placement, acquired Clade Therapeutics to enhance their platform, and provided additional clinical data. The company ended the quarter with $249.9 million in cash, cash equivalents, and investments, with a cash runway into 2026.
