Relma-cel was the first CAR-T therapy developed and made in China to be approved, for large B-cell lymphoma that has come back after two treatments.
Approved by the NMPA in September 2021 for relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy, three months after the Fosun Kite import of axicabtagene ciloleucel became China's first CAR-T approval; relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma followed in 2022. The pivotal RELIANCE study (59 patients) reported an objective response rate of 75.9% and complete responses in 51.7%, with low rates of severe cytokine release syndrome. JW Therapeutics was formed in 2016 as a joint venture between Juno Therapeutics and WuXi AppTec, and the product is the Chinese sibling of lisocabtagene maraleucel.
Autologous T cells transduced with a CD19-directed CAR (4-1BB co-stimulatory domain) derived from the JCAR017 construct, manufactured in Shanghai by JW Therapeutics. Connects to CD19.
