Regulatory Clearance to Proceed with Pediatric Expansion of HG-CT-1 Clinical
Trial
Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals plc (LSE: HEMO) is pleased to announce that the
30-day review period by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the
Company's previously submitted amendment
(https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/HEMO/pediatric-amendment-to-clinical-protocol/17034775)
to the clinical protocol of its ongoing Phase I trial of HG-CT-1 has concluded
without a clinical hold. As a result, the Company is now cleared to proceed
with the next steps required to initiate pediatric enrolment in the trial.
The protocol amendment expands the eligibility criteria for the Phase I trial
of HG-CT-1, Hemogenyx's proprietary CAR-T therapy for relapsed/refractory
acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML), to include children and adolescents with
this aggressive and hard-to-treat disease.
The Company will now move forward with Institutional Review Board (IRB)
submissions and associated site activation procedures to enable the opening of
pediatric cohorts.
Dr. Vladislav Sandler, CEO & Co-Founder of Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals,
commented:
"Regulatory clearance to proceed with the pediatric expansion of our HG-CT-1
clinical trial is a significant milestone. It reflects continued momentum in
our development program and underscores our commitment to delivering
innovative therapies to patients across age groups. This expansion broadens
the potential impact and value of HG-CT-1 as we continue to advance toward key
inflection points in the clinic. Importantly, it also reinforces the value of
Company's robust intellectual property portfolio, which underpins our pipeline
and supports long-term strategic growth."
The Company will update the market as further progress is made in pediatric
site activation and patient enrolment.
