Gritstone bio and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Establish a Clinical Trial Agreement to Evaluate a Neoantigen Cell Therapy-Vaccine Combination
“We are privileged to establish this collaboration with NCI and Dr. Rosenberg, a pioneer of cancer immunotherapy and an expert in cell therapy,” said Andrew Allen, M.D., Ph.D, Co-founder, President & Chief Executive Officer of Gritstone bio. “To date, cell therapy’s success in treating blood cancers has not translated to the more common solid tumors. There is a mechanistic synergy in having cell therapy and cancer vaccines in combination. We are thrilled to test this hypothesis in patients in collaboration with a leader in the cell therapy field. We look forward to collaborating with Dr. Rosenberg and his team to generate proof-of-concept data from this promising study.”
