Medigene announces indication selection for the clinical development of its TCR-T therapy program in solid tumors
“The selection of these cancers as targets for MDG1015 is an important step as we advance towards the first-in-human trial. Following recent positive EU and US preliminary regulatory interactions, we remain on track for an IND/CTA approval in the second half of 2024,” said Dr. Selwyn Ho, Chief Executive Officer at Medigene. “While clinical data for engineered cell therapies still in development has shown benefits in some of the selected indications, we believe there is still significant room for improvement in terms of efficacy and durability of progression-free survival. We are confident that MDG1015 as a first-in-class armored and enhanced TCR-T therapy has the potential to address these challenges and improve the quality of life of patients suffering with cancer.”
