FDA Approves Tregzi Cell Therapy to Prevent Chronic GVHD in Blood Cancer Patients

Jul 21, 2026

The FDA has approved Tregzi, a donor-derived T-cell immunotherapy, to reduce the risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease following stem cell transplant in adults with high-risk blood cancers. In a pivotal trial, 78% of recipients were alive and free of severe chronic GVHD at one year versus 38.4% with standard transplant.

Novel CAR-T Approaches Show Promise Against Solid Tumors in Preclinical Studies

Apr 02, 2026

Two innovative CAR-T approaches show promise against solid tumors in preclinical studies. An in vivo gene editing system generates CAR-T cells directly in the body, while HLA-independent T cell receptors target CD70 across various tumor types. Both methods have demonstrated tumor clearance in mouse models, potentially expanding cell therapy applications beyond blood cancers.
