Celyad to Present Updates on CYAD-01 at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2018
Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium - Celyad (Euronext Brussels and Paris, and NASDAQ: CYAD) a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of CART-cell therapies, today announced that the company will present updates on its ongoing Phase I clinical trials at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting being held April 14–18, 2018, in Chicago. Poster presentations will feature updated data from Celyad’s THINK[1] trial, the new SHRINK[2] and LINK[3] trials in metastatic colorectal cancer, as well as data from a preclinical study showing that the addition of either the CD28 or 4-1BB co-stimulatory domains to CYAD-01 construct brings no benefit in terms of in vitro activity of the receptor.
