VIPER-101 utilizes Vittoria’s unique Senza5™ platform, which combines CD5 gene-editing technology with a swift five-day manufacturing process to provide a targeted and effective treatment for relapsed/refractory T cell lymphoma. This groundbreaking strategy aims to improve both the effectiveness and safety of traditional autologous cell therapies, offering renewed hope for patients whose cancers have not responded to standard treatments.
"This achievement marks a significant advancement in our goal of creating transformative therapies for patients facing challenging diseases," stated Nicholas Siciliano, Ph.D., CEO of Vittoria Biotherapeutics. "By tackling the major limitations of current CAR-T therapies, VIPER-101 is specifically designed to boost treatment potency, durability, and safety. We are excited to assess its therapeutic potential and anticipate producing significant data that may reshape the treatment approach for those fighting T cell lymphoma."
Marco Ruella, M.D., Scientific Founder of Vittoria Biotherapeutics and a Physician-Scientist at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine, noted, "Even with progress in cell therapy, patients with T cell lymphoma still have very few treatment options available. Introducing this innovative method into clinical settings is the result of years of research dedicated to fulfilling the urgent need for new therapies for these patients."
The open-label Phase 1 trial aims to evaluate the safety and initial effectiveness of VIPER-101, as well as to establish the recommended Phase 2 dosage (RP2D) for patients with relapsed/refractory CD5 positive nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The study is actively enrolling participants, and further details are available on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06420089).
