- PRGN-3005 was well-tolerated with a low incidence of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), no dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and no neurotoxicity.
- PRGN-3005, administered intraperitoneally or intravenously at doses as low as 2 million CAR-T cells, showed a dose-dependent expansion and encouraging persistence in peripheral blood.
- Best responder achieved stable disease for more than 18 months after failing nine prior lines of treatment; results were achieved with two doses of UltraCAR-T cells in the low millions.
- Incorporating lymphodepletion before IV infusion led to an efficacy signal as demonstrated by a decrease in tumor burden in 67% (6/9) of patients, with concurrent decreases in CA125 at Day 35 in 89% (8/9) of patients and stable or partial response in 90% of the individual target lesions.
- PRGN-3005 UltraCAR-T cells are currently being evaluated in the Phase 1b dose expansion study at Dose Level 3 via IV infusion with lymphodepletion and incorporating repeat dosing.
- Price Action: PGEN shares closed at $1.34 on Monday.
