The Chinese trial behind zevor-cel's approval for multiple myeloma, showing deep and lasting responses with a fully human BCMA CAR-T.
Phase 1/2 single-arm study at Chinese centres; the phase 2 report (Experimental Hematology and Oncology 2025) described high overall and complete response rates, deep minimal residual disease negativity and predominantly low-grade cytokine release syndrome. Basis of NMPA approval in February 2024. A parallel North American study (LUMMICAR STUDY 2) was run by CARsgen before it refocused on China.
