2024-08-27 I Peace, Inc.; iCamuno Biotherapeutics HaiPress

PALO ALTO,Calif.,Aug. 22,2024 -- I Peace,a pioneeringCDMO in induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells,and iCamuno Biotherapeutics,a biotechcompany developing iPScell-basedtherapies,today announced a significant milestone with the dosing of the first patient in a clinical trial using iPS cell-derived natural killer (iNK) cells for ovarian cancer immunotherapy. iCamuno will lead the trial,which will test the safety and efficacy of NK cells made from I Peace's cGMP-compliant iPS cells using iCamuno's NK cell differentiation technology.

Natural killer (NK) cells are a critical component of the anti-cancer immune system,with natural abilities to recognize and destroy tumor cells. This trial leverages iCamuno's abilities to create cGMP-grade iPS cell-derived NK cells with improved consistency and effector function. The initial phase will focus on ovarian cancer,with potential expansion to a broader range of diseases.

"We are thrilled to reach this moment," said Koji Tanabe,CEO and founder at I Peace. "Dosing the first patient in this trial using our iPS cell line is a significant milestone in our goal to develop innovative immunotherapies for cancer."

"This is an important milestone for iCamuno," said Ethan Liu,Chairman and co-founder of iCamuno. "Given their safety and efficacy in preclinical testing,we are hopeful that our iNK cells will be a valuable weapon in the battle against ovarian cancer."
