Oral and poster presentations will include one-year follow-up data from an expanded group of patients and an analysis of treatment outcomes in patients with myelofibrosis
MENLO PARK, CA, November 4, 2021 – Orca Bio, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing purified, high-precision cell therapies for cancer, autoimmune and genetic blood disorders, today announced that new data will be presented from a single-center Phase 2 trial and a multi-center Phase 1b trial at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting. Specifically, pooled data from patients treated with Orca-T, an investigational high-precision cell therapy product being studied in patients with hematologic malignancies, will be shared in an oral presentation. Additionally, results of Orca-T in a subset of patients with myelofibrosis from those same trials will be shared in a poster presentation.
“Our clinical experience with Orca-T has grown significantly over the past year and we are pleased to present data on an expanded group of patients who now have one year of follow-up with Orca-T,” said Ivan Dimov, Ph.D., cofounder and chief executive officer of Orca Bio. “We look forward to presenting these important findings at ASH as we continue to work to deliver on our promise of maximizing patient survival while minimizing the compromise of toxicities to enable better outcomes.”
The ASH abstracts are now available at
