10 Nov, 2026Clinical progress
140 patients treated with azer-cel across Phase 1 and Phase 1b; Phase 1b response rate was 77% in 56 patients with B-cell cancers.
Phase 1b showed no GvHD or grade ≥3 CRS; early BTKi combination data showed an 86% ORR (6 of 7 patients).
BTK inhibitors represent a ~US$12bn global market in 2025; data received oral presentation slots at ASH 2025 and ASCO 2026, with a poster selected for ASH in December 2026.
Positive FDA Type C meeting held in November 2025; clinical doses secured to complete Phase 1b and commence the Phase 2 pivotal study.

Upcoming milestones
Present initial BTKi combination data at ASH in December 2026.
Complete Phase 1b enrolment in Q2 2027.
Hold an FDA Type B meeting in mid-2027 to confirm the registrational pathway for BTKi combination therapy.
Initiate a registrational study in 2H 2027/2028; out-licensing discussions are underway.
