Oral Presentation Details

Abstract 54: Anti-GD2 CAR NKT cells are safe and produce antitumor responses in patients with relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma
Date/Time: Monday, May 16, 2022, 2:30 PM – 2:45 PM ET
Session: Gene and Cell Therapy Trials in Progress
Presenter: Dr. Andras Heczey, Baylor College of Medicine
Location: Room 201, Walter E. Washington Convention Center, 801 Mt Vernon Pl NW Washington, D.C.

"Observing evidence of a dose response is extremely encouraging, and we are excited to see two out of three responses at 100 million cells/m2," said Dan Lang, M.D., President of Athenex Cell Therapy. "We are hopeful that we will see additional responses as we move to higher doses. We and our partners at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) and Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) continue to be motivated by the data and look forward to our next update."

About KUR-501

KUR-501, is an autologous NKT cell CAR product that targets GD2, a tumor-associated antigen that is expressed on almost all neuroblastomas as well as melanomas, some sarcomas, and a variety of other tumors. GINAKIT2, a phase 1 single arm clinical study (NCT03294954) of KUR-501, in patients with refractory or recurrent high-risk neuroblastoma will evaluate up to six dose levels of KUR-501 following lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine.

Neuroblastoma, a pediatric cancer of the sympathetic nervous system, typically the adrenal gland, is associated with a poor prognosis in children with high-risk disease and is a significant unmet medical need. The KUR-501 development program will provide autologous proof-of-concept for CAR-NKT cells in solid tumors using a validated target.

The GINAKIT2 study is supported by Athenex, Inc., which acquired Kuur Therapeutics in May 2021, as well as by Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. This study is currently recruiting patients at BCM/TCH.

Rachel Jordan, PhD, a senior product manager at iBio, will present the poster (#P061), titled "Plant-Made Antibodies Show Superior Glycosylation Homogeneity While Retaining Pharmacokinetic Properties," which highlights:

The production of a single uniform G0 glycosylation pattern, lacking fucose and xylose, of NISTmAb and rituximab when compared to Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell culture produced antibodies, which contain more heterogeneous glycosylation patterns.
Comparability of in vivo rodent pharmacokinetic profiles for NISTmAb and rituximab produced using mammalian cell culture and the FastPharming System.
How rapid, scalable transient expression in plants of high-quality mAbs for in vivo studies can significantly shorten the time to achieve in vivo proof-of-concept.
More information about producing consistent, high-quality antibodies in the FastPharming System may be accessed in a whitepaper here.
