Biotech News: Wugen announces the company will initiate our pivotal Phase 2 trial for WU-CART-007 in the first quarter of 2025. This off-the-shelf, allogeneic CD7-targeted CAR-T cell therapy is designed to address the unmet needs of patients with relapsed or refractory T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL). After 20 years with limited advancements for relapsed or refractory T-ALL/LBL, we believe off-the-shelf allogeneic CD7-targeted CAR-T cell therapies may offer hope and innovation.
