FDA Orphan Drug Designation Granted to P-BCMA-ALLO1 for the Treatment of Multiple Myeloma
“The Orphan Drug Designation for P-BCMA-ALLO1 underscores the high unmet medical need for a rapid and accessible off-the-shelf allogeneic CAR-T therapy for patients with multiple myeloma,” said Kristin Yarema, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Poseida Therapeutics. “This designation further validates our belief that TSCM-rich allogeneic CAR-T therapies may potentially offer the optimal combination of clinical results, on-demand availability, and high-volume production, while supporting broader access to CAR-T therapies. We look forward to continuing our work on the Phase 1 study of P-BCMA-ALLO1 and plan to share further clinical updates in 2024.”
