(“HCWB” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HCWB), a U.S.-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing innovative immunotherapies to extend healthspan by targeting the link between chronic inflammation and disease, announced today presentation of studies showing that its proprietary fusion protein, HCW9206, provides a new pathway for generating chimeric T-cell receptor - T cells (CAR-Ts) for immunotherapy with increased function. HCW9206 is a novel class of immunotherapeutic that enables a single molecule to deliver synergistic signals from three different immune-stimulatory cytokines. The activity of HCW9206 was significantly superior compared to standard methods employing anti-CD3/anti-CD28 and IL-2 reagents for CAR lentiviral transduction and subsequent expansion and persistence of human CAR-Ts. CAR-Ts represent a revolutionary technology with several CD19-specific CAR-T therapies approved by the FDA for the treatment of B-cell malignancies, and CAR-Ts continue to play an increasingly pivotal and expanding role in the treatment of cancer and has significant potential to treat autoimmune diseases and age-related diseases.","length":1239,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"The Company’s research collaborator Dr. Harris Goldstein’s laboratory at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, New York, recently presented findings of...
