On February 2, 2026 CREATE Medicines, Inc. ("CREATE"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering in vivo CAR therapy, reported new detailed data demonstrating complete B cell depletion in NHPs using its proprietary in vivo CAR-T platform. The results will be presented at the Keystone Symposia: Emerging Cell Therapies conference, held February 1-4 in Banff, Alberta.

"The broad potential of our platform across oncology and autoimmune is now validated in both humans and NHPs," said Robert Hofmeister, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of CREATE Medicines. "This represents a major leap in the field of in vivo CAR therapies, demonstrating that targeted T cell programming is not only possible, but redosable and clinically de-risked with our platform."
Key Highlights:
Complete B cell depletion in NHPs using both a next-generation T cell receptor-specific CAR and a conventional 41BBζ CAR.
Validated RNA-LNP delivery system capable of modular CAR deployment and targeted immune cell programming in vivo.
Flexible receptor architecture enabling tailored immune activation, persistence, and control across indications.
CREATE’s in vivo CAR-T platform is designed to overcome key limitations of ex vivo cell therapies, removing the need for cell harvesting, manipulation, or conditioning regimens. CREATE’s platform also enables the use of CARs that integrate into the T cell receptor, a feature lacking in currently used approaches, allowing precise immune cell programming without off-target expression. This modularity is central to CREATE’s multi-immune programs, where selective functionality and control are critical.
