HEMO CAR-T21 Dec 2022 15:52
Amongst the negativity here are my HEMO CAR-T thoughts:
CAR-T market $2bn 2022 and expected to exceed $6bn over the next 7 years. Peer level companies average valuation $110m.
•HEMO CAR~T Fully owned and patent protected. •Money in the bank to complete Phase 1/2a clinical trials.
•Multi year collaboration with PennU, arguably the world leaders in CAR-T. •Hemogenyx moved to a state of the art purpose built 10,000 square foot laboratory. •Two certified clean rooms to manufacture CAR in house. •Positive feedback from FDA.
•All tests to date have been successful. •1st PQ test successfully completed, two more runs required before IND, estimated completion early Feb 2023. •Human trials can commence 30 days after IND (subject to approval).
Some of the individuals involved: -Vlad Sandler CEO, Founder Hemogenyx
-Sir Marc Feldmann Chairman Hemogenyx and David Shepard, Scientific Adviser, both winners of the United States equivalent of the Nobel Prize for Science and directly responsible for two of the top five best selling drugs of all time.
-Dr Koen Van Besien Medical Director Hemogenyx, one of Americas top bone marrow transplant and oncology doctors and a leading expert in CAR-T therapy.
-Stuart Tinch, Director of quality Hemogenyx, with over 7 years of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in charge of quality.
- The Penn team of scientists who were responsible for getting the first commercial CAR-T therapy to market.
Initial clinical trials to be conducted at Penn University Hospital and maybe one other.
In summary, funds allocated and available, facilities ready, best in class staff and relevant expertise in place and all being well, human trials set to commence end of Q1. Personally I’m excited and bullish.
