Tanja Obradovic: Carisma Therapeutics just announced that first cancer patient with solid tumor received CAR-monocyte

Tanja Obradovic shared a post on LinkedIn:

”As of yesterday new cell therapy modality may be on the horizon consisting of first CAR-monocyte product.

Biotech Carisma Therapeutics just announced that first cancer patient with solid tumor received CT-0525, an ex vivo gene-modified autologous chimeric antigen receptor-monocyte (CAR-monocyte) cellular therapy with over-expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2).

Trial (NCT06254807) is conducted in patients with solid tumors with HER-2 positivity tested by IHC using standard assay resulting in 3+, or 2+ with confirmation by ISH testing with non-breast, non gastroesophageal tumors determined for positivity according to the breast cancer ASCO/CAP guidelines.

Completion is expected 1Q2025 when we can see if safety and initial efficacy of this novel approach delivers promise of improvement.”
