AbelZeta Pharma, Inc., a global clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in innovative cell-based therapeutic products, has announced the publication of data from its C-CAR031 study. This data is now accessible in an abstract on the American Society of Clinical Oncology's (ASCO) official website, aligning with the company's upcoming oral presentation at the ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago, scheduled from May 31 to June 4, 2024. The presentation will focus on the safety and preliminary efficacy results of C-CAR031 in a cohort of 24 patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Interested parties can access the abstracts on the ASCO meeting website.

The oral presentation, titled "Phase I study of C-CAR031, a GPC3-specific TGFβRIIDN armored autologous CAR-T, in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)," is assigned Abstract Number 4019. It falls under the Rapid Oral Abstract session for Gastrointestinal Cancer, specifically focusing on Gastroesophageal, Pancreatic, and Hepatobiliary cancers. The session is set for June 3, 2024, from 9:45 AM to 11:15 AM CDT.

C-CAR031 is a pioneering therapeutic approach, an autologous, armored GPC3-targeting chimeric antigen receptor T-Cell (CAR-T) therapy aimed at treating HCC.
