Marker Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: MRKR), a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company, announced the initiation of its Phase 1 RAPID study to investigate its Multi-Antigen Recognizing $(MAR)$ T cells as an Off-the-Shelf (OTS) product for the treatment of hematological malignancies and solid tumors. The company has treated the first patient in this program and reported encouraging preliminary safety data, indicating that the OTS product was well tolerated, with safety outcomes consistent with previous MAR-T cell studies.
