CareDx Partners with TC BioPharm to Support ACHIEVE Clinical Trial Using AlloCell for Pharmacokinetic Monitoring of Allogeneic Cell Therapy
CareDx (CDNA) announces a partnership with TC BioPharm to provide pharmacokinetic analysis using its AlloCell™ solution in the ACHIEVE clinical trial. The phase II trial evaluates TCB008, an allogeneic gamma-delta T-cell therapy for patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS). AlloCell, which has been used in ten previous cell therapy trials, will monitor the expansion and persistence of TCB008 in trial patients. This partnership aligns with CareDx's strategic expansion into hematology oncology, specifically focusing on pharmacokinetic and monitoring assays for cell therapy patients.

Insights
The partnership between CareDx and TC BioPharm marks a significant advancement in cell therapy monitoring capabilities. AlloCell's implementation in the ACHIEVE trial for AML and MDS patients represents a important step in understanding treatment efficacy. The ability to track pharmacokinetics of allogeneic gamma-delta T-cells (TCB008) with precision is vital for optimizing dosing strategies and predicting treatment outcomes. With AlloCell's proven track record in ten previous clinical trials and current active use in four ongoing trials, this collaboration strengthens CareDx's position in the hematology-oncology space. The technology's ability to monitor cell expansion and persistence will provide valuable insights into immune system reconstitution, potentially improving treatment protocols for blood cancer patients.
This strategic partnership enhances CareDx's market position in the growing cell therapy monitoring segment. The expansion into hematology-oncology represents a significant revenue diversification opportunity beyond their core transplant business. With a market cap of
CareDx Continues Strategic Expansion into Hematology Oncology with Pharmacokinetic and Monitoring Assays for Cell Therapy Patients
AlloCell has been used in ten prior cell therapy clinical trials and with the addition of the ACHIEVE trial is being actively used in four clinical trials.
The ACHIEVE clinical trial is an adaptive, open-label, phase II study designed to evaluate the efficacy and effectiveness of TCB008, an allogeneic gamma-delta T-cell therapy for patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).
“This partnership builds upon our growth strategy to expand into hematology oncology with pharmacokinetic and monitoring assays for patients undergoing cell therapy,” said Marica Grskovic, PhD, CareDx Chief Strategy Officer. “We are thrilled to continue to progress the science of allogeneic cell therapy for patients battling acute myeloid leukemia.”
“Our partnership with CareDx is a significant milestone,” said Alison Bracchi, Executive Vice President of Clinical Operations at TC BioPharm. “The collaboration is pivotal to the development and optimization of TCB008 as a therapy for acute myeloid leukemia and other blood cancers.”
CareDx's AlloCell test, a sensitive solution for pharmacokinetic monitoring of allogeneic immune and stem cell therapies will be used to evaluate the expansion and persistence of TCB008 in patients enrolled in the ACHIEVE trial. It is expected that the expansion and persistence data will provide an understanding of the duration and effect of TCB008 gamma-delta T-Cells in reconstituting the immune system of acute myeloid leukemia patients enrolled in the ACHIEVE trial.
