NK010 demonstrates numerous anti-cancer properties such as a broad range of efficacy, prominent expression of NK cell activation markers, and exceptional purity. These features equip it to address diverse tumor forms. Additionally, NK010 possesses the capacity to extend its therapeutic use to non-cancerous ailments and holds the potential to become the foundational cellular component for the company's upcoming line of engineered NK cell therapeutics.
For this Phase I clinical exploration, ovarian cancer was the initial target. Preclinical findings revealed impressive effects, with NK010 significantly curtailing the progression of ovarian tumor in animal subjects, and showing efficacy against liver cancer, various solid malignancies, and acute myeloid leukemia as well.
Professor Zhigang Tian, originator of NK CellTech, and a distinguished member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the Academia Europaea, expressed his excitement over obtaining FDA authorization to proceed with clinical assessments of NK010. "Our preliminary investigations have exceedingly affirmed the therapeutic promise and safety profile of NK010 in treating solid tumors. While the results thus far bolster our optimism, further investigation is necessary, and our group is dedicated to pioneering new cell-based cancer therapies and to address clinical voids in the future," said Professor Tian.
NK-010 is categorized within the domain of biomedical research, currently advancing through preclinical trials on a global scale, including in China. The medication is being crafted to impact a range of health issues such as cancerous disorders, endocrine and metabolic related conditions, blood and lymph diseases, and disorders affecting the urinary and reproductive systems.
