Allogene Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALLO) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (AlloCAR T™) therapies for cancer and autoimmune diseases. Leveraging the expertise of former Kite Pharma executives, Allogene aims to revolutionize cancer treatment with innovative off-the-shelf CAR T solutions. These therapies, derived from healthy donor cells, provide a scalable and readily available option, eliminating the lengthy and complex process of personalized cell therapy.
The company's portfolio includes 16 pre-clinical T cell therapy assets and UCART19, an allogeneic CAR T therapy in phase 1 development for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Notable core programs target various malignancies such as lymphoma, leukemia, solid tumors, and autoimmune diseases. Among its leading investigational products is cemacabtagene ansegedleucel (cema-cel), currently undergoing pivotal phase 2 ALPHA3 trials for large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) and phase 1 trials for relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). ALLO-316, aimed at renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and ALLO-329, targeting autoimmune diseases with Dagger® technology, further strengthen Allogene's robust pipeline.
Allogene collaborates with leading biotech firms like Foresight Diagnostics and Arbor Biotechnologies to enhance its clinical development capabilities. Recent achievements include strategic partnerships and a $15 million grant from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) supporting the development of ALLO-316. Financially, Allogene reported a strong cash runway extending into 2026, with latest funding rounds ensuring continued support for its R&D initiatives.
Stay informed on Allogene's progress as it drives the future of allogeneic CAR T therapy, providing broader patient access and more efficient cancer treatment options.
Allogene Therapeutics (Nasdaq: ALLO) has released promising preclinical data demonstrating that anti-BCMA CAR T cells from healthy donors exhibit superior immune fitness and cancer-killing activity compared to those derived from multiple myeloma patients. The research, published in Cancer Research Communications, indicates that these allogeneic CAR T cells have higher counts, better CD4/CD8 ratios, and effective cytotoxicity against multiple myeloma. Allogene's ongoing Phase 1 trials for ALLO-715 and ALLO-605 aim to further evaluate these promising therapies, with a clinical update expected by the end of 2022.
Allogene Therapeutics (Nasdaq: ALLO) announced FDA has granted Fast Track designation to ALLO-316, its first AlloCAR T therapy targeting CD70 for advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC). This designation underscores ALLO-316's potential to address the unmet needs of patients resistant to standard RCC treatments, with a five-year survival rate of under 15%. The ongoing Phase 1 TRAVERSE trial aims to evaluate ALLO-316's safety and efficacy.
ALLO-316's selectivity for CD70 may offer advantages in treating both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies.
