Celyad Oncology (CYAD) Jumps on Positive News From FDA

Celyad Oncology (CYAD) soared over 40% on positive news from the FDA. CYAD has announced that the FDA has lifted its clinical hold of CYAD-101-002’s Phase 1b clinical trial.

The trial evaluates CYAD-101 with Merck’s Keytruda in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer with microsatellite stable (MSS) / mismatch-repair proficient disease.

“We are pleased that the FDA lifted the clinical hold on this trial. We remain confident in the potential development of not only the candidate itself, but the continued development with our proprietary TIM technology. CYAD-101 is currently our only clinical candidate co-expressing NKG2D and TIM, and we hope to continue to showcase our expertise with our non-gene edited technologies and explore additional opportunities to utilize NKG2D in allogeneic CAR T,” said Dr. Charles Morris, Chief Medical Officer of Celyad Oncology.
