Celyad is developing an innovative Natural Killer Receptor CAR T-cell therapy (CYAD-01). This focuses on AML and metastatic colorectal cancer. A comprehensive set of clinical studies is underway.
Investment summary
Data in December confirmed that CYAD-01 T-cells can destroy acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells. CYAD-01 showed 62% (5/8) anti-leukemic activity across three dose levels including 38% (3/8) with some form of complete response; a further MDS CR is reported. Safety was excellent. Further data are promised in mid-19. Celyad is aiming to accelerate CYAD-01 development for the treatment of AML and MDS, and to initiate a Phase 2 trial in H2 2019. In solid cancers, a study combining CYAD-01 with preconditioning is underway and may be crucial. The alloSHRINK allogeneic (CYAD-101) trial in mCRC is underway. This gives Celyad the lead in mass-market allogeneic therapy for solid cancer. Celyad had €55.9m cash on 30 Sept.

Industry outlook
CAR T-cell therapeutics have seen low sales and shift in interest to bi-specific therapies. There is still strong interest in allogeneic products, where Celyad holds a key patent. Celyad remains in a key position in both AML and mCRC with a strong programme in solid cancers.
