Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive and fatal brain cancer, with a median survival of just 12-18 months despite treatment. We have developed a CAR-T cell therapy for GBM targeting the tumors directly while secreting a CD47-blocker to reprogram macrophages. With our therapy, we expect increased survival rates and significantly reduced side effects compared to standard-of-care treatments and other new product developments (e.g. ADCs).Targeting IMPD submission and FIH clinical start within 2025.The company will be a spin-off from University of Basel.
