Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals (LSE:HEMO, OTC:HOPHF) has successfully treated the third patient in its Phase I clinical trial of HG-CT-1, a proprietary CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML). This marks the completion of the first adult dose cohort, achieved after receiving special FDA permission under exceptional circumstances.

The company reported encouraging early results, with the first two patients remaining alive at six and three months post-treatment. Following this milestone, Hemogenyx plans to advance to a second adult dose cohort with twice the initial dose and initiate a pediatric trial arm. The Phase I trial aims to evaluate safety and secondary endpoints including anti-leukemic activity, survival rates, and duration of response.

Third Patient Treated with HG-CT-1 CAR-T Therapy and Completion of First Adult Dose Cohort

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM / ACCESS Newswire / August 15, 2025 / Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals plc (LSE:HEMO), a biotech firm specializing in innovative blood disease therapies, announced a significant milestone today. The company confirmed the successful treatment of the third patient in its Phase I clinical trial for HG-CT-1, a proprietary CAR-T cell therapy designed to combat relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) in adults. This marks the completion of the trial’s first adult dose cohort.

The FDA granted Hemogenyx special permission to proceed under “exceptional circumstances,” a move that underscores the urgency and potential of the therapy for patients with limited treatment options. According to Hemogenyx, this regulatory flexibility highlights the company’s ability to navigate the complexities of clinical trials, ensuring that eligible patients gain access to potentially life-saving treatments.

Completion of the first adult dose cohort, which utilized the lowest dose of HG-CT-1, is considered a pivotal step in the Phase I trial. The company is now poised to escalate the dosage. Subject to the observation of no dose-limiting toxicities, Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals will push forward on two key fronts:

  • Initiating the second adult dose cohort, doubling the initial dosage to further assess efficacy.
  • Commencing recruitment for the pediatric arm of the trial, addressing a critical unmet need in the treatment of childhood AML. This expansion into pediatric trials represents a significant step towards broadening the potential impact of HG-CT-1.

The ongoing Phase I trial employs a dose-escalation design. Its primary objective is to rigorously evaluate the safety profile of HG-CT-1. Simultaneously, researchers are gathering data on critical secondary endpoints, including anti-leukemic activity, overall survival rates, progression-free survival, and the duration of patient response. Adding to the positive momentum, Hemogenyx reports that the first two adult patients treated with HG-CT-1 have remained alive six months and three months post-treatment, respectively.

Dr. Vladislav Sandler, CEO & Co-Founder of Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals, conveyed confidence in the advancement of the therapy. “Completing the first adult dose cohort is a major achievement in our Phase I trial of HG-CT-1,” Dr. Sandler stated. “I am proud of our team’s persistence in working with the FDA to obtain the necessary clearance to treat this patient. With this milestone reached, we are well positioned to move into the higher-dose cohort and to open our pediatric arm, advancing our mission to deliver transformative therapies for AML patients of all ages.” Hemogenyx’s ability to reach younger patients will be a game changer for the company’s future.
