“We believe these data provide strong support for the ability of our product candidates to induce durable complete remissions at a rate similar to approved autologous CD19 CAR T therapies,” said Zachary Roberts, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Research & Development and Chief Medical Officer. “The design and execution of our Phase 1 ALPHA/ALPHA 2 trials enabled a systematic evaluation of potential Phase 2 treatment regimens. Based on these data, we were able to select an optimal dosing regimen that we believe will be capable of delivering the benefit of CAR T treatment to patients without the lengthy wait time and risk of manufacturing failure associated with autologous CAR T. We have now turned our attention to enrolling our potentially pivotal Phase 2 trials as quickly as possible.”
