"As we continue to advance our full-spectrum strategy, we look forward to sharing preclinical data from our ex vivo platform with the research community at this year’s ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting," said Intellia Chief Scientific Officer Laura Sepp-Lorenzino, Ph.D. "The data will feature our novel allogeneic technology designed to overcome rejection by host T and NK cells without the need for host immune suppression, as well as highlight our clinical-scale manufacturing process developed for NTLA-5001, our TCR-based T cell therapeutic candidate for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. Together, the data support our progress toward developing engineered cell therapies with the potential to transform the lives of people living with life-threatening diseases."
