ADR Update: CAR reaches the highest dose

Celyad can now move to the highest planned dose of 3x107 cells in the important NKR-2 Phase II CAR trial. If the next 30m cell dose is also safe (and the MTD) it will lead to two separate six patient open label studies in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma. Further data is possible in late June. Efficacy indications in either of these could enable a series of solid tumor exploratory studies. The advantage of the NKR-T immuno-oncology approach is that it is easily transferred to multiple cancer types. FY15 accounts were as expected with year-end cash of $122m.
