Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – Celyad (Euronext Brussels and Paris, and Nasdaq: CYAD), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of CAR-T cell therapies, today announced that abstracts highlighting clinical and translational research data from the company’s pipeline of NKG2D-based candidates focused on the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), including the allogeneic cell therapy CYAD-101, were published today ahead of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer’s 34thAnnual Meeting (SITC).

Filippo Petti, chief executive officer at Celyad, commented, “We are excited to provide additional updates at the upcoming SITC annual meeting from our current CAR-T program in metastatic colorectal cancer, including translational data from multiple approaches we have pursued with our NKG2D-based candidates for the treatment of the disease. Over the past few years, we have treated over thirty metastatic colorectal cancer patients within the program assessing various conditions. We continue to be encouraged by the results and prospects for the program and, in particular, from clinical data of our lead allogeneic candidate CYAD-101 where we have observed an absence of graft versus host disease and preliminary signals of clinical activity in a refractory, difficult to treat patient population.”
