Gamida Cell
Gamida Cell is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing advanced cell therapies with the potential to cure blood cancers and rare, serious hematologic diseases. We are leveraging our proprietary nicotinamide-based, or NAM-based, cell expansion technology to develop product candidates designed to address the limitations of cell therapies.
Our lead clinical candidate, NiCord®, has the potential to serve as a life-saving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant solution for patients with high-risk blood cancers and bone marrow failure disorders. NiCord demonstrated rapid and durable time to engraftment in a Phase 1/2 clinical study sponsored by us.1It is currently being evaluated in an international, multi-center Phase 3 study in patients with leukemia and lymphoma sponsored by us, as well as in a Phase 1/2 study in patients with severe aplastic anemia sponsored by the National Institutes of Health.
Beyond NiCord, we are developing NAM-NK, which is designed to harness the power of the anti-tumor properties found within natural killer (NK) cells. NAM-NK has the potential to serve as a universal donor-based therapy when combined with standard-of-care therapeutic antibodies. The NAM-NK program is currently being evaluated in an investigator-sponsored, Phase 1 study in patients with refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma. Early data from the ongoing study demonstrated that NAM-NK was generally well tolerated, with encouraging signs of clinical activity in patients with advanced disease.
