SHANGHAI<\/span>, Dec. 29, 2025 \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0CARsgen <\/span>Therapeutics Holdings Limited (Stock Code: 2171.HK), a company focused on developing innovative CAR T-cell therapies, announced that it has submitted two separate Investigational New Drug (IND) applications to the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for its allogeneic BCMA-targeted CAR-T cell therapy product, CT0596. The applications seek to initiate two corresponding Phase Ib\/\u2161 clinical trials for the treatment of relapsed\/refractory multiple myeloma (R\/R MM) and primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL), respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

CT0596 is an allogeneic CAR T-cell therapy targeting BCMA, developed based on CARsgen’s proprietary THANK-u Plus\u2122 platform. Through the knockout of genes such as NKG2A, TRAC, and B2M, CT0596 is designed to reduce the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) and host immune rejection. Additional gene editing further blocks host natural killer (NK) cell-mediated rejection, thereby aiming to enhance the product’s efficacy and safety profile.<\/p>\n

Investigator-initiated trials (IIT) for CT0596 have already been conducted in China<\/span> to explore its clinical potential in treating R\/R MM and pPCL. Data from the first-in-human study, presented at the 2025 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, demonstrated a favorable safety profile and encouraging efficacy signals for CT0596. As of August 31, 2025<\/span>, all 8 patients with R\/R MM who received CT0596 infusion were evaluable for efficacy, with a median follow-up of 4.14 months. Six patients achieved a partial response (PR) or better: 3 achieved complete response\/stringent complete response (CR\/sCR) (all received full-dose lymphodepletion), 1 achieved very good partial response (VGPR), and 2 achieved PR. Four patients experienced Grade 1 cytokine release syndrome (CRS), with no Grade 2 or higher CRS observed. No immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), GvHD, dose-limiting toxicities, treatment discontinuations, or deaths were reported.<\/p>\n

Previously, the company also disclosed preliminary clinical data for CT0596 in relapsed\/refractory pPCL. Two heavily pretreated pPCL patients with high disease burden and rapid progression both achieved sCR after receiving CT0596 treatment.<\/p>\n

The IND applications mark the commencement of the registration clinical development phase for CT0596, which holds the potential to offer a new treatment option for patients with R\/R MM and pPCL.<\/p>\n

About CT0596<\/b><\/p>\n

CT0596 is an allogeneic BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy developed using CARsgen’s proprietary THANK-u Plus\u2122 platform. It is currently being evaluated in investigator-initiated trials for relapsed\/refractory multiple myeloma (R\/R MM) or primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL). CT0596 demonstrated preliminary favorable tolerability and encouraging efficacy signals. Further investigation is planned in additional plasma cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases mediated by plasma cells.<\/p>\n
