中國上海和美國馬薩諸塞州劍橋市2022年10月27日 /美通社/ -- 藥明巨諾（港交所代碼：2126），一家獨立的、專注于開發、生產及商業化細胞免疫治療產品的創新型生物科技公司，與2seventy bio（納斯達克代碼：TSVT），一家領先的免疫腫瘤細胞治療公司，今天宣布達成戰略合作。雙方將建立細胞治療的轉化及臨床開發平臺，在中國內地、香港及澳門地區加速T細胞免疫治療產品的開發。
雙方的首要合作將圍繞2seventy的MAGE-A4 TCR項目，該項目用于治療實體腫瘤，由2seventy與再生元（Regeneron）合作開發。MAGE-A4是癌-睪丸抗原MAGE家族的一員，這類抗原在多種實體腫瘤中均有表達。該項目旨在開發T細胞受體（TCR）療法，用于治療MAGE-A4陽性的實體腫瘤。
藥明巨諾首席醫學官Mark J. Gilbert博士表示："我們很高興與2seventy bio攜手，在中國共同開發MAGE-A4 TCR項目及其他潛在的產品。2seventy bio是一家業界一流的細胞治療公司，擁有先進的技術及經驗豐富的團隊。此次戰略合作將進一步發揮我們包括轉化研究及臨床開發在內的、世界一流的綜合能力，我們期待加速開發更多具有突破性治療價值的細胞免疫治療產品，服務更多中國乃至全球的癌癥患者。"
2seventy bio首席醫學官Steve Bernstein表示："此次合作對于患者的真正價值，在于我們增強了快速測試、學習并推進我們創新細胞治療項目的能力。藥明巨諾對于中國患者未被滿足的治療需求、中國的注冊事務流程、以及臨床開發路徑具有深入的洞察。借助此次合作機會，我們將彼此的獨特優勢經驗相互結合，建立差異化的平臺，從而實現我們的目標，即讓創新治療更快地惠及患者。"
根據協議條款，2seventy將授權藥明巨諾在中國內地、香港及澳門地區開展MAGE-A4細胞治療項目的權利，藥明巨諾將負責其在中國的開發、生產及商業化，2seventy有權獲得里程碑付款及基于產品收入的特許權使用費。此外，2seventy可將基于該合作項目而獲得的早期臨床數據用于在其他地區開發該產品。此次交易的完成尚待取得藥明巨諾股東的批準，并滿足其他慣例成交條件。
關于MAGE-A4項目
MAGE-A4是癌-睪丸抗原MAGE家族的一員，這類抗原在多種實體腫瘤中均有表達。我們構造了我們在與MediGene的合作中發現的一種高效的TCR，該TCR可識別HLA呈遞的MAGE-A4多肽，并憑借我們CTBR12 TGF-beta"翻轉"受體技術進一步增強這些T細胞的效力，將TGF-beta免疫抑制效應轉化為T細胞的激活信號。再生元（Regeneron）和2seventy bio于2018年圍繞此項目達成合作，目前雙方正在合作開發。
