Precigen, Inc. (Nasdaq: PGEN) presented preclinical data for its next-generation UltraCAR-T platform using a mesothelin (MSLN) CAR at the AACR Annual Meeting 2023. MSLN is overexpressed in various solid tumors including mesothelioma and pancreatic cancer.
The new UltraCAR-T cells feature a novel mechanism for intrinsic PD-1 blockade, aiming to enhance safety and efficacy by eliminating the need for expensive checkpoint inhibitors. Results showed robust UltraCAR-T cell expansion and durable persistence leading to significant antitumor effects in preclinical models, even after tumor rechallenges. Collectively, these findings position the UltraCAR-T platform as a promising candidate in the cancer treatment landscape.
Precigen (NASDAQ: PGEN) has amended its license agreement with Alaunos Therapeutics, regaining exclusive rights to IL-12 gene therapy and proven CAR-T targets CD19 and BCMA. This amendment eliminates future royalties to Alaunos and enhances Precigen's ability to develop and commercialize UltraCAR-T therapies. The UltraCAR-T platform aims to deliver personalized treatments with overnight manufacturing, potentially transforming cancer therapy. The company is progressing its clinical programs for various cancers while planning a business and clinical update call on April 4, 2023.
