TScan Therapeutics Announces Strategic Reorganization to Focus on in vivo Cell Therapy for Solid Tumors
“Last year TScan took a first step towards streamlining the company, enabling us to advance our most promising science,” said Gavin MacBeath, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer. “We have now seen very encouraging data on patients treated with our commercial-ready manufacturing process for TSC-101, and we firmly believe this is an important product candidate that has the potential to solve a major unmet medical need in heme malignancies. Because we are limited by our ability to access the substantial capital resources needed to complete the Phase 3 trial, we have made the difficult decision to allocate our resources to programs we believe better allow us to create value for all stakeholders, including patients. We have achieved significant clinical, manufacturing, and regulatory success with our heme program, and I am optimistic that it will proceed forward once the data mature and a strategic partner is engaged. I am extremely proud of the team for all they have achieved with this program and am particularly grateful to those employees who are leaving TScan for all they have done to advance our mission.”
