First Patient Dosed in Phase 1/2 Study of ROR1 targeting autologous CAR T, ONCT-808, in patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell lymphoma

“We are excited to announce the first patient, who had failed previous CD19 CAR T therapy, has been treated with ONCT-808,” said James Breitmeyer, M.D., Ph.D., Oncternal’s President and CEO. “We believe ONCT-808 has the potential to produce robust and durable responses for patients suffering from aggressive lymphoma. It builds on our extensive clinical experience with zilovertamab, as well as that with zilovertamab vedotin, an antibody drug conjugate, which has shown that ROR1 can be targeted without unwanted off-tumor, on-target activity. We particularly appreciate that this first patient is under the care of Dr. Michael Wang, Endowed Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas.”
