  • The trial was a single administration, dose escalation study evaluating the safety and feasibility of NKR-2 T-cell therapy in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Multiple Myeloma.
  • Results of the trial are expected to be available in late Q4 2016

Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – Celyad (Euronext Brussels and Paris, and NASDAQ: CYAD), a leader in the discovery and development of cell therapies, today announced the successful completion of the 21-day safety follow-up of the last patient enrolled at the fourth dose level in its Phase I clinical trial evaluating the safety and feasibility of its NKR-2 T-cell therapy – in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma patients. No safety issues or toxicities were reported.

Dr. Christian Homsy, CEO of Celyad: “We are pleased that no adverse safety signal has been reported. Based on the successful completion of the fourth cohort, we are looking forward to starting the global Ph I/IIa multiple dose trial, in the US and EU, of our NKR-2 autologous therapy in the fourth quarter of this year.”

Dr. Frédéric Lehmann, Head of Immuno-Oncology at Celyad: “The absence of any safety or toxicity signal up to this point continues to support our belief that this unique engineered T-cell construct can be safely administered and potentially lead to a therapeutic effect providing hope to the thousands of patients who need better treatments for both AML and MM.”
