Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals plc
("Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals" or the "Company")
MD Anderson Clearance to Initiate Pediatric Enrolment in HG-CT-1 Clinical
Trial
Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals plc (LSE: HEMO) is pleased to announce that the
Institutional Review Board ("IRB") at MD Anderson Cancer Center ("MD
Anderson") has approved an amendment to the clinical protocol of the Company's
ongoing Phase I trial of HG-CT-1, its proprietary CAR-T cell therapy for the
treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia ("R/R AML").
The approved amendment expands the eligibility criteria for the trial to
include children and adolescents with R/R AML, allowing the Company to begin
enrolling pediatric patients into the study. This important step builds on the
safety and early efficacy signals already observed in adult participants and
significantly broadens the potential patient population who may benefit from
HG-CT-1.
Dr. Vladislav Sandler, CEO & Co-Founder of Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals,
commented:
"Securing IRB clearance to proceed with pediatric enrolment in our HG-CT-1
clinical trial is a major milestone. It marks the transition of HG-CT-1 into
the pediatric setting, where treatment options remain limited, and
demonstrates the continued momentum of our development program. This expansion
not only increases the potential reach and impact of HG-CT-1 but also
underscores the value of the Company's strong intellectual property portfolio,
which underpins our pipeline and supports long-term growth."
The Company will provide further updates as both adult and pediatric patient
enrolment progresses.
