“We are excited to share data at ASH that showcase scientific advancements from our in vivo CAR T and ex vivo allogeneic CAR T cell programs,” said Steve Harr, Sana’s President and CEO. “These presentations and publications mark the growth of our science and our continued progress toward the clinic, as we intend to file our first IND as early as next year.

Data on the progress of several of Sana’s programs were outlined in abstracts for poster presentations, which were made available to the public online today. Information about when the full posters will be available to ASH conference participants is outlined below.
Engineered hypoimmune allogeneic CAR T cells exhibit innate and adaptive immune evasion even after sensitization in humanized mice and retain potent anti-tumor activity
In vivo delivery of a CD20 CAR using a CD8-targeted fusosome in Southern pig-tail macaques (M. nemestrina) results in B cell depletion
CD4-targeted fusosomes are capable of transducing resting T helper cells to generate highly potent CAR T cells
Specificity of CD8-targeted fusosomes in human PBMCs using single cell RNA and T cell receptor sequencing
Abstracts are available online on the ASH meeting website as of November 4, 2021, at 9:00 a.m. ET. Learn more at https://www.hematology.org/meetings/annual-meeting.
