VOR - Model VCAR33 (CD33) - CD33-Directed Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell
Licensed from the National Institutes of Health, VCAR33 is a CD33-directed chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy. A T cell therapy using the same CAR construct as VCAR33 is being studied in a multi-site Phase 1/2 clinical trial as an autologous monotherapy bridge-to-transplant for relapsed and/or refractory AML patients, sponsored by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP).
*A T cell therapy using the same CAR construct as VCAR33 is being studied in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial sponsored by the NMDP, and timing of data release is dependent on the investigators conducting the trial. We expect to either assume sponsorship and oversight of the NMDP trial prior to its completion or enter into an agreement with the NMDP providing us with the right to cross-reference the trial results in future IND applications that we may submit to the FDA, however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in these endeavors. We believe the T cell therapy being evaluated in the NMDP trial is comparable to VCAR33 and that the trial, if successful, will support future clinical development of VCAR33. However, the FDA may reject our claim of comparability or the sufficiency of the data to support it or disagree with our ability to reference the data generated by NMDP. If any of foregoing were to occur, we will be required to repeat certain development steps, which would involve us conducting additional IND-enabling studies as depicted in the graphic above. See “Risk Factors – We have not successfully tested our product candidates in clinical trials and any favorable preclinical results are not predictive of results that may be observed in clinical trials.”
