ST Phi Therapeutics’ Universal Cell Therapy for Solid Tumors Gets Green Light for Clinical Trial in China

ST Phi Therapeutics, a Hangzhou-based cell therapy specialist, has secured tacit approval from China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to initiate a clinical trial for its innovative cell therapy, CNK-UT002. This marks a significant milestone, as CNK-UT002 is the first universal cell therapy for solid tumors to be approved for trials in China. The therapy leverages ST Phi’s proprietary CNK-UT technology, which integrates CNK-T and U-T platform technologies, to create a treatment that can potentially target a broad range of tumors with precision. CNK-UT002 works by harnessing the body’s T cells and NK cells, endowing them with the ability to specifically recognize and eliminate various solid and hematological tumors, including liver cancer, melanoma, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, and T-cell leukemia. The therapy’s potential to address such a wide spectrum of cancers positions it as a promising candidate in the field of oncology.-Fineline Info & Tech
