SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif, April 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CERo Therapeutics Holdings, Inc., (Nasdaq: CERO) (“CERo” or the “Company”) an innovative immunotherapy company seeking to advance the next generation of engineered T cell therapeutics that employ phagocytic mechanisms, announces it will be presenting a poster at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2025 Annual Meeting to be held May 30-June 3, 2025 at McCormick Place, Chicago, Ill.
The poster is titled, “First-in-human study of autologous chimeric engulfment receptor T-cell CER-1236 targeting TIM-4-L in acute myeloid leukemia (CertainT-1).”
Chris Ehrlich, CERo Therapeutics’ CEO, commented, “We look forward to the opportunity to discuss our study protocol at one of the most prestigious oncology conferences in the world. We believe that CER-1236 presents a unique approach to treating cancer utilizing the patient’s immune system and a novel target that we anticipate may alter how doctors currently approach cancer therapy.”
The Company is currently initiating its first-in-human, multi-center, open-label, Phase 1/1b study designed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of CER-1236 in patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is either relapsed/refractory, has measurable residual disease, or has a mutation of the TP53 gene. The two-part study will begin with dose escalation to determine the highest tolerated dose and recommended dose for Phase 2, followed by an expansion phase to evaluate safety and efficacy. Primary outcome measures include the incidence of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), the incidence of dose-limited toxicities and estimation of overall response rate (ORR), complete response (CR), composite complete response (cCR), and measurable residual disease (MRD). Secondary outcome measures include pharmacokinetics (PK).
About CERo Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.
CERo is an innovative immunotherapy company advancing the development of next-generation engineered T-cell therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. Its proprietary approach to T cell engineering, which enables it to integrate certain desirable characteristics of both innate and adaptive immunity into a single therapeutic construct, is designed to engage the body’s full immune repertoire to achieve optimized cancer therapy. This novel cellular immunotherapy platform is expected to redirect patient-derived T cells to eliminate tumors by building in engulfment pathways that employ phagocytic mechanisms to destroy cancer cells, creating what CERo refers to as Chimeric Engulfment Receptor T cells (“CER-T”). CERo believes the differentiated activity of CER-T cells will afford them greater therapeutic application than currently approved chimeric antigen receptor (“CAR-T”) cell therapy, as the use of CER-T may potentially span both hematological malignancies and solid tumors. CERo anticipates initiating clinical trials for its lead product candidate, CER-1236, in 2025 for hematological malignancies as well as for certain solid tumors.
