CARSGEN-B (02171) announced that preliminary results of CT0596, an allogeneic BCMA-targeted CAR-T cell candidate, were presented at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting.
The initial findings from the CT0596 investigator-initiated trial (IIT) were showcased in a poster presentation on December 6, 2025 (5:30 PM–7:30 PM EST) under the title: *"A First-in-Human Study of CT0596, an Allogeneic CAR T-Cell Therapy Targeting BCMA, in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma."*
CT0596 is a universal CAR-T cell therapy targeting BCMA, developed using CARSGEN-B’s proprietary THANK-u Plus™ platform. It is currently being evaluated in an IIT for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM) or plasma cell leukemia (PCL). Early data demonstrated favorable safety and encouraging efficacy signals, with CAR-T cell expansion observed across all predefined dose cohorts.
Beyond R/R MM, the company plans to explore CT0596’s potential in other plasma cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases driven by autoreactive plasma cells. An Investigational New Drug (IND) application for this candidate is expected to be submitted in the second half of 2025.
