“Safety switches are critical to the future of our field of advanced cell therapies. They allow us to develop approaches that are designed to significantly improve patient outcomes, whilst at the same time incorporating the potential to reduce the risk of severe adverse side effects from the treatment,” said Dr. Martin Pule, CSO of Autolus. “Next-generation, modular CAR T innovation is at the core of Autolus and RQR8 is incorporated in several of our product candidates. We look forward to partnering with Bristol Myers Squibb to bring the potential utility of our proprietary safety switch to their programs. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our excellent research team at Autolus for their continued hard work.”
