IASO
Bio is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in discovery and development of novel cell therapies and
biologics for oncology and autoimmune diseases. Leveraging its proprietary fully human antibody
discovery platform (IMARS), high-throughput chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) drug screening
platform, and proprietary manufacturing processes, IASO Bio is developing a rich clinical-stage
pipeline of multiple autologous and allogeneic CAR-T and biologics product candidates. This pipeline
includes a portfolio of over 10 novel products, including FUCASO® (Equecabtagene
Autoleucel). Equecabtagene Autoleucel received New Drug Application (NDA) approval from China's
National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and U.S. FDA IND approval for the treatment of R/R MM.
IASO also received Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) from the NMPA in February 2021 and Orphan
Drug Designation (ODD) from the FDA in February 2022, Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT)
and Fast Track (FT) Designations from the FDA in February 2023. In addition to multiple myeloma, NMPA
has approved IND application of FUCASO® for the new expanded indication of Neuromyelitis
Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD).
Additionally,
the company's in-house developed fully human CD19/CD22 dual-targeted CAR-T cell therapy received two
IND clearances for treating relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (r/r B-NHL) and
relapsed/refractory acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL). It is currently in Phase I clinical
trial for r/r B-NHL. It was also granted ODD for treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia by the FDA
in October 2021. And the fully human monoclonal antibody targeting human CD19, IASO-782 Injection,
received both FDA and NMPA IND approvals in June 2023 for use in U.S. and China clinical trials for
Autoimmune hematological disorders, including primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and warm
autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA).
Leveraging its
strong management team, innovative product pipeline, integrated manufactural and clinical
capabilities, IASO aims to deliver transformative, curable, and affordable therapies that fulfil unmet
medical needs to patients in China as well as around the world.
