Poseida Therapeutics Hosts Cell Therapy R&D Day Highlighting Its Innovative Clinical and Preclinical Pipeline
Emerging leadership in allogeneic CAR-T for hematologic malignancies demonstrated by recent P-BCMA-ALLO1 Phase 1 data and new preclinical findings for P-CD19CD20-ALLO1 and P-CD70-ALLO1
Latest preclinical data on P-BCMACD19-ALLO1 demonstrates its potential as a next-generation
allogeneic TSCM-rich CAR-T for both autoimmune diseases and oncology
Advancing innovative strategies to overcome the unique challenges of applying CAR-T to solid tumors
Virtual R&D Day featuring partner Astellas Pharma and Poseidas leadership and scientific teams to be held today at 10:00am
ET / 7:00am PT
SAN DIEGO, November 14, 2024 Poseida Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: PSTX), a clinical-stage
allogeneic cell therapy and genetic medicines company advancing differentiated non-viral treatments for patients with cancer, autoimmune and rare diseases, today announced plans to share progress across its
clinical- and earlier-stage pipeline of differentiated T stem cell memory cells (TSCM)-rich allogeneic CAR-T therapies in oncology and autoimmune
diseases during a virtual R&D Day to be held today at 10:00am ET /7:00am PT.
We believe Poseida is well positioned to be a cell
therapy leader based on the unique capabilities of our proprietary non-viral technology platform and our allogeneic TSCM-rich CAR-T approach, said Kristin Yarema, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Poseida Therapeutics. We are organizing our pipeline around three pillars hematologic malignancies,
solid tumors and autoimmune diseases with multiple candidates in each that give us a wide range of opportunities. In the emerging field of cell therapy for autoimmune diseases, we are optimistic that our platform can build upon the early
success seen with autologous CAR-T by offering an off-the-shelf option that would expand accessibility and address the potential
drivers of relapse with more complete B cell depletion.
Building on the advantages of our non-viral
allogeneic TSCM-rich approach, we are implementing several advanced technologies aimed at bringing the benefits of CAR-T therapy to patients with solid
tumors, said Devon J. Shedlock, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer, Cell Therapy at Poseida Therapeutics. This includes our collaboration with Astellas, which brings together the unique technologies from both companies to create a new class
of CAR-T, convertibleCARs®, which employs multi-antigen targeting and other enhancements to improve CAR-T
potency and persistence.
The event will feature presentations by members of Poseidas management team and will include a fireside chat with
Peter Sandor, M.D., EVP and Head of Corporate Strategy at Astellas Pharma, that will cover the research collaboration and license agreement between Xyphos Biosciences, Inc., (a wholly owned subsidiary of Astellas, Xyphos) and
Poseida to develop novel convertibleCAR® programs by combining the innovative cell therapy platforms from each of the companies. Poseida management will participate in a Q&A session
at the end of the program.
Cell therapy technology platform: Poseida has built a full set of
non-viral capabilities to design and develop allogeneic, TSCM-rich CAR-T therapies. TSCM cells are considered ideal for
CAR-T therapy because they are long-lived, multi-potent and self-replicating, with the potential for an improved safety and efficacy profile. This compares to other approaches, which either use a different
cell type or drive T cell differentiation (and therefore less stemness) as part of the process to manufacture the CAR-T cells. The key elements of Poseidas approach include:
|
|
|
Non-viral, transposon-based gene insertion system preferentially
integrates genes into naïve and TSCM cells, with a high cargo capacity that allows for adding multiple genes to enhance functionality and add safety features |
|
|
|
Cas-CLOVER gene editing system preserves the TSCM
cell type and operates effectively in resting T cells. It offers approximately 25-times greater fidelity than CRISPR-Cas9, supporting improved safety and quality |
|
|
|
Wholly-owned, onsite GMP manufacturing facility positioned to serve discovery through commercial needs
across the Companys pipeline. The Companys Booster Molecule has enabled a scalable, lower cost manufacturing approach with the proven ability to generate cell yield up to over 100 doses per batch |
Emerging leadership in allogeneic CAR-T for hematologic malignancies: Poseida will provide an overview of
recently reported interim Phase 1 results for P-BCMA-ALLO1, its lead CAR-T program targeting BCMA for the treatment of multiple myeloma. New preclinical data suggest
that P-BCMA-ALLO1 effectively targets mutations that are known to arise in patients with relapse after prior anti-BCMA therapies. P-BCMA-ALLO1 is part of Poseidas
collaboration with Roche and is currently enrolling a Phase 1b dose expansion study, which will be outlined in the presentation. In addition, the Company will highlight its emerging pipeline programs for hematologic malignancies:
|
|
|
P-CD19CD20-ALLO1 is the Companys first dual CAR-T program targeting CD19 and CD20 for the treatment of B-cell malignancies in collaboration with Roche. New preclinical data demonstrate that P-CD19CD20-ALLO1 delivers high in vitro potency and strong in vivo antitumor activity for either CD19 or CD20 single-positive target cells, as well as double-positive targets. A Phase 1 clinical trial is enrolling
patients with selected B-cell malignancies, with initial clinical data anticipated in 2025. Additional information about the trial is available at www.clinicaltrials.gov using identifier:
NCT06014762. |
|
|
|
Beyond hematologic malignancies, preclinical data also demonstrate robust in vitro activity against
patient-derived B cells across multiple autoimmune diseases |
|
|
|
P-CD70-ALLO1 is a preclinical program targeting CD70 for the
treatment of diseases including acute myeloid leukemia (AML). New preclinical data demonstrate P-CD70-ALLO1s robust anti-AML effect, with no toxicity to
hematopoietic stem cells. In addition, there is a growing body of clinical and preclinical evidence that targeting CD70 with cell therapy may be an effective treatment for solid tumors. Roche has an option to add this as a potential new program to
the collaboration |
Expanding allogeneic TSCM-rich CAR-T to autoimmune disease: Poseidas cell therapy technology platform has the potential to create CAR-T therapies designed to address the challenges with existing
emerging approaches to applying cell therapy to autoimmune disease, including autologous CAR-T, in vivo CAR-T and T cell engagers. The Companys lead program for
autoimmune disease is P-BCMACD19-ALLO1, a dual CAR-T targeting BCMA and CD19. New preclinical data demonstrate
P-BCMACD19-ALLO1s potential in both autoimmune disease and oncology:
|
|
|
Demonstrated robust in vitro killing of patient-derived B cells across multiple autoimmune diseases, including
rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and multiple sclerosis (MS), which collectively affect more than 5 million people in the U.S. |
|
|
|
Achieved dose-dependent depletion of primary human B cells in a humanized mouse model generated with human CD34+
cells |
|
|
|
Effectively eliminated primary human CD81+CD19+ multiple myeloma progenitor cells from patient bone marrow
samples, addressing cells associated with relapse where BCMA-only targeted therapies were ineffective |
|
|
|
Demonstrated ability of P-BCMACD19-ALLO1 and P-BCMA-ALLO1 to kill tumor cells expressing known mutant forms of BCMA, which are linked to relapse in patients treated with autologous CAR-T and bispecific T cell engager
therapies directed at BCMA |
Poseida is conducting IND-enabling studies for P-BCMACD19-ALLO1 and plans to file one or more INDs for an autoimmune disease indication with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Addressing historical barriers for CAR-T in solid tumors through a broad array of bold, innovative technologies
enabled by the Companys platform: There are currently no CAR-T therapies approved for solid tumors, with several key factors believed to be roadblocks: 1) antigen heterogeneity; 2) differing
lymphodepletion needs compared to hematologic malignancies to enable CAR-T cell engraftment, tracking, and infiltration; 3) on-target
off-tumor toxicity; and 4) hostile tumor microenvironment. Poseida is approaching these challenges with a suite of technologies across multiple solid tumor programs:
|
|
|
P-MUC1C-ALLO1 is Poseidas lead solid tumor CAR-T program targeting MUC1-C, a membrane protein overexpressed in many epithelial cancers. A Phase 1 clinical trial is enrolling patients with treatment-resistant breast,
ovarian, colorectal and other solid tumors, with ongoing exploration of P-MUC1C-ALLO1 dosing and lymphodepletion regimens. A clinical data update is planned for the European Society for Medical Oncology
Immuno-Oncology Congress 2024 (ESMO-IO) taking place in Geneva December 11-13, 2024. A patient case study from the Phase 1 trial demonstrated a 42% decrease in
paraesophageal lymph node size with prolonged stable disease for nearly a year in a heavily pretreated appendiceal carcinoma patient. New preclinical data suggest adding low-dose methotrexate to standard
lymphodepletion may enhance CAR-T expansion and persistence |
|
|
|
P-PSMA-ALLO1 is a preclinical program targeting PSMA for prostate
cancer. In preclinical models, P-PSMA-ALLO1s dual CAR format showed superior in vivo anti-tumor activity and cytotoxicity compared to single and tandem binder
CAR-Ts |
|
|
|
Poseida and Xyphos are developing allogeneic convertibleCARs® for solid tumors, combining Poseidas allogeneic CAR-TSCM platform with
Xyphos ACCEL technology to create controlled, long lasting, and highly active CAR-T therapies. New preclinical data shows positive results
for an allogeneic convertibleCAR-TSCM targeting universal inert natural killer group 2 member D receptor (iNKG2D), paired with a solid tumor antigen-targeting MicAbody. Poseida and Xyphos are working to optimize this convertibleCAR® and
MicAbody pairing, and other platform technologies designed to maximize potency and persistence |
|
|
|
Poseida will highlight its allogeneic
CAR-TCR-T cells to address antigen heterogeneity in solid tumors. The Company recently presented new preclinical data demonstrating enhanced potency to better target
solid tumors at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 39th Annual Meeting. Preclinical data highlight the potential of a combination of CAR-TCR-T cell treatment followed by a T cell engager (TCE). In this model, MUC1C-CAR and NY-ESO-1-TCR T cells effectively controlled a primary tumor (MUC1C+/NY-ESO-1+/CD70-), and later were reactivated and re-directed by a CD70 TCE to control challenge by a secondary tumor (MUC1C-/NY-ESO-1-/CD70+)
|
In-house manufacturing to support Poseidas broad cell
therapy pipeline: the Company will highlight the capabilities of its GMP facility and team, including:
|
|
|
New data demonstrated high-purity apheresis across different healthy donors, with consistency in CAR-T manufacturing (cellular expansion, gene editing, final phenotype) across collections from the same donor |
|
|
|
Future manufacturing platform enhancement opportunities including
AI-assisted donor screening to improve efficiency; improving electroporation unit operations to improve gene editing efficiency and subsequent cell health; and leveraging dynamic bioreactor environments to
increase yields |

Right off the bat, I was very impressed with the “ rapid
responses we saw in a couple of initial patients we treated, including several patients of my colleagues who had failed other standard therapies, including a significant amount of extramedullary disease. And within 4 to 6 weeks, the disease melted
away with the clearance of bone marrow. The other thing I was very happy to see was the safety of this therapy compared to other CAR-T cell therapy, [where] we are seeing severe CRS and ICANS including prolonged cytopenia. The overall incidence of
CRS was quite manageable, and severity was so low that now we are treating most of our patients on this trial on a complete outpatient basis. ” 13 © © 2024 2024 P Po os se ei id da a T Th he er ra ap pe eu ut ti ics cs, , I In nc. c.
