SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Oct. 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Lyell Immunopharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: LYEL), a clinical-stage T-cell reprogramming company advancing a pipeline of next-generation CAR T-cell therapies for patients with solid tumors or hematologic malignancies, announced today that it has completed its acquisition of ImmPACT Bio USA Inc. (“ImmPACT”), a privately-owned clinical-stage cell therapy company. The acquisition strengthens Lyell’s clinical-stage pipeline of CAR T-cell therapies and complements its suite of innovative technologies designed to generate longer-lasting, functional T cells to achieve more durable outcomes for patients. Lyell will accelerate the development of IMPT-314, a dual-targeting CD19/20 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell product candidate for hematologic malignancies, including B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lyell Immunopharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: LYEL), a clinical‑stage T-cell reprogramming company advancing a diverse pipeline of cell therapies for patients with solid tumors, today announced initial clinical and translational data from its Phase 1 trial of LYL797, its first-generation reprogrammed ROR1 CAR T‑cell product candidate enhanced with proprietary anti-exhaustion technology. The initial dataset consists primarily of patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and demonstrated dose-dependent antitumor clinical activity and the ability of LYL797 CAR T cells to proliferate, infiltrate tumors and kill cancer cells in patients with relapsed/refractory disease. Patients with TNBC treated with LYL797 had an objective response rate (ORR) of 40% and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of 60% at the 150 x 106 CAR T cell dose level, with a CBR of 38% across all dose levels evaluable to date. Common treatment-related adverse events in patients without lung metastases included Grade 1 and 2 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and headache, and the expected cytopenia from lymphodepletion. There were no reports of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) attributed to LYL797. Pneumonitis occurred in patients with lung metastases and dose escalation is continuing separately and more gradually in those patients. No dose-limiting toxicities have been reported in patients without lung involvement. All patients are now receiving prophylactic steroids prior to LYL797 treatment.
