GD2-CART01 is under clinical development by Bellicum Pharmaceuticals and currently in Phase I for Medulloblastoma. According to GlobalData, Phase I drugs for Medulloblastoma have a 66% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Phase II. GlobalData’s report assesses how GD2-CART01’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

GD2-CART01 overview

GD2-CART01 is under development for the treatment of refractory and relapsed neuroblastoma, medulloblastoma, high-grade glioma, diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma and central nervous system tumor. It is administered through intravenous and parenteral  route. The therapy comprises of T cells genetically modified through gammaretroviral transduction to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting the cells expressing ganglioside GD2 antigen and incorporated with safety switch. It is being developed based on caspaCIDe and CID technology. The technology enables control of caspase-9 signaling.

The drug candidate was also under development for the treatment of osteosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma and melanoma.
