THINK, SHRINK and LINK

Celyad has provided an update on its trial plans and announced 2016 preliminary results. The THINK Phase Ib trial is a major expansion of CAR therapy with five solid tumours plus AML and MM being explored. The THINK dose escalation results are expected in Q417 with six-month efficacy results possible from H218. The colorectal, SHRINK trial starting in Q2 will explore combining NKR-2 therapy with chemotherapy. The Q3 LINK trial will explore direct delivery of NKR-2 cells to metastatic liver tumours. The move into solid tumours puts Celyad in a leading position. Our interim indicative value remains at €45 per share. Cash remains strong at €82.6m.
