Investor Update summary
21 Oct, 2025Clinical program progress
Four Phase 1 clinical trials are ongoing across three assets under three FDA INDs at four leading US centers, with a focus on CHM CDH17 and CHM CORE-NK.
CHM CDH17, an autologous CAR-T cell therapy, is in Phase 1/2 trials for colorectal, gastric, and neuroendocrine cancers at four sites, with 10 patients recruited, eight treated, and 10/10 successful GMP manufacturing runs.
Fast track designation was achieved from the FDA in April 2024, and orphan designation is under review.
CHM CORE-NK, an off-the-shelf allogeneic NK cell product, is being tested in investigator-initiated and Phase 1b trials at MD Anderson and Case Western, with dose escalation completed and first-line dosing underway.
CHM CDH17 clinical results and next steps
Dose level 1 (50 million cells) is completed, dose level 2 (150 million cells) recruitment is ongoing, and dose level 3 recruitment is underway; both lower dose levels have demonstrated safety, with tumor shrinkage and stable disease observed.
Tumor shrinkage up to 37% and persistence of CAR-T cells for over 200 days have been observed, with no off-target effects or safety issues reported.
Mixed responses are due to regulatory definitions; some lesions shrink >30%, but not all meet criteria for partial response.
Phase 1 is expected to conclude in FY26, with Phase 2 ready to start without further FDA review.
Commercial interest is high due to the large market and unique CAR-T targeting CDH17.
CHM CORE-NK trial updates
Dose escalation is complete; first-line dosing is underway at MD Anderson, with seven of 20 patients treated.
Four complete responses and one partial response have been observed, with no safety issues to date.
The trial is the only known first-line cell therapy study in this setting, aiming to complete dosing in FY26.
Response rates exceed 50%, surpassing historical benchmarks for standard therapy in AML.
Regulatory and manufacturing challenges are being addressed, with ongoing updates expected mid-next year.
