About Us
Overview
Celyad Oncology is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR T) therapies for cancer. We are developing a diversified pipeline of allogeneic and autologous CAR T cell therapy candidates for cancer patients with hematological malignancies and solid tumors.
Our lead allogeneic candidate CYAD-101 is a NKG2D receptor-based CAR T, which incorporates our non-gene edited allogeneic TIM technology, for the treatment of refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We are also developing our short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-based allogeneic CAR T candidate CYAD-211 for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (r/r MM).
Our autologous CAR T franchise is evaluating our next generation NKG2D receptor CAR T candidate CYAD-02 for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (r/r AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
Celyad Oncology’s headquarters and clinical manufacturing facility are located in Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium.
