FIRST IN HUMAN DATA OF NKX019, AN ALLOGENEIC CAR NK FOR THE TREATMENT OF RELAPSED/REFRACTORY (R/R) B-CELL MALIGNANCIES (EHA 2023) - P1 | "Following 3 days of lymphodepletion (LD) with fludarabine at 30 mg/m 2 /d and cyclophosphamide at 300 mg/m 2 /d, patients received NKX019 at 3 dose levels (3 × 10 8 , 1 × 10 9 , or 1.5 × 10 9 CAR + NK cells/dose x 3 doses on days 0, 7, and 14 of a 28-day cycle). These preliminary data suggest that NKX019 has a manageable safety profile with monotherapy activity across multiple histologies of B-cell NHL. Enrollment into the expansion cohorts is currently ongoing and will evaluate the RP2D in multiple cohorts: (1) CAR-T naïve LBCL, (2) CAR-T exposed LBCL, and (3) in combination with rituximab to evaluate for enhanced anti-tumor activity via ADCC.

NKX019 Clinical Program Progress and Upcoming Milestones (GlobeNewswire) - "Following engagement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the patient-by-patient stagger was eliminated, accelerating the ability to dose escalate; Protocol amendments now allow for simultaneous dosing of multiple participants in parallel within each dose cohort; Ntrust-1 and Ntrust-2 enrollment process was streamlined to permit data from both studies to be utilized by a combined, iDSMB to inform dose escalation decisions; After unanimous clearance from the combined iDSMB, enrollment has begun in the second dose-escalation cohort; NKX019 clinical programs in autoimmune diseases continue to enroll patients. This includes Ntrust-1, Ntrust-2, and two investigator-sponsored trials; Preliminary data from the Ntrust-1 and Ntrust-2 clinical trials are expected to be presented at a medical conference in 2026."

NKX019, an allogeneic off-the-shelf CD19 targeting CAR-NK cell therapy, induces deep CD19+ B cell depletion in hematological malignancy and models of autoimmune disease (ACR Convergence 2025) - P1 | "In summary, non-clinical in vitro and in vivo data demonstrated that NKX019 effectively depletes CD19+ cells derived from AD patients and in CD19+ lymphoma models, respectively. In NHL patients, NKX019 induced robust B cell depletion followed by reconstitution of the B cell compartment. These data provide compelling support for NKX019 as a novel therapeutic approach for treatment of B-cell driven AD."

The trial will enroll patients with SSc, IIM or AAV into parallel cohorts. Per the trial protocol, patients receive NKX019 on Days 0, 3, and 7 following lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide, an agent with an established safety profile across autoimmune diseases. The trial will assess the safety of NKX019 as well as its ability to enable long-term remissions via a 'reset' of the immune system through the elimination of pathogenic B cells.....Preliminary data from Ntrust-1 and Ntrust-2 are anticipated in 2025."
