  • IN8bio Inc INAB announced the ability of its non-signaling gamma-delta CAR-T platform (nsCAR) to target leukemic cells while preserving healthy B cells selectively
  • IN8bio's nsCAR platform uses the innate immune recognition of gamma-delta T cells to distinguish between tumor and healthy tissue, offering a targeted but potentially less toxic approach.

  • In a 48-hour in vitro cytotoxicity experiment, the nsCAR platform demonstrated a greater than 15x difference in killing between leukemic cells and healthy B cells (79.7% versus 5.2%) when both express the CD19 target antigen.
  • The nsCAR platform is also engineered to express the cytokine interleukin-15 (IL-15) to enhance cellular persistence and the ability to target and kill tumor cells over time. 
  • The platform can potentially broaden CAR technology's utilization for previously "undruggable" solid and liquid tumor targets, the company said.
  • Price Action: INAB shares are down 12.77% at $1.57 on the last check Thursday.
