#Modiblast has become a clinical phase company!
Recently we reached an important clinical development milestone: the #ScientificAdvice hearing at #BfArM (German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices) was passed without objections, significantly increasing the chances to get final regulatory approval for the planned Phase 1/2 clinical trial of our in vivo AML and MDS immunotherapy #MB101. All safety aspects are sufficiently taken into account, the preclinical data were deemed adequate and the study rationale well substantiated. Once funding of the study is secured, we will work out the detailed protocol and sign contracts with the CRO and study centers.

Immunomodulatory kits generating leukaemia derived dendritic cells do not induce blast proliferation ex vivo: IPO-38 as a novel marker to quantify proliferating blasts in acute myeloid leukaemia
Highlights:
• Immunomodulatory kits generating leukaemia-derived-dendritic-cells do not induce blast proliferation ex vivo in most cases.
• Leukaemia-derived-dendritic-cells’ induced anti-leukaemic activity can compensate induced blast proliferation.
• IPO-38 is a sensitive marker to quantify proliferating blasts.
