Prescient Therapeutics (PTX) has announced three internal development programs for its immune receptor technology platform, OmniCAR.
OmniCAR is a next-generation CAR T therapy platform that offers multiple advantages over its predecessor such as control, safety, flexibility and efficacy.
CAR T is a form of immunotherapy that uses T-cells to directly target cancer cells, however, it has some limitations. As a result, OmniCAR is believed to be a more safe and effective treatment when treating cancers such as Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), breast, ovarian and gastric cancers and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
