Fuzhou Tuoxin Tiancheng Biotech Co., Ltd. (“Tuoxin Tiancheng”) has achieved a significant milestone with the clinical approval of their “TX103 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell Injection” (TX103 CAR-T) for the treatment of recurrent or progressive stage 4 brain gliomas.ðŸ§

TX103 CAR-T is a targeted therapy focusing on B7-H3. The B7-H3 target belongs to the B7 ligand family, showing excessive expression in various cancers while maintaining low or no expression in normal tissues. B7-H3 possesses non-immunogenic functions such as promoting migration and invasion, angiogenesis, chemotherapy resistance, endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and influencing tumor cell metabolism. Its expression in tumors is associated with poor prognosis, making it valuable in tumor immunotherapy.ðŸ§

The therapy has already been approved for clinical trials in both China and the United States, with this recent approval marking a new indication. In August 2022, TX103 received clinical approval for the treatment of late-stage solid tumor patients who are TX103 positive, have failed standard treatments, or experienced intolerable toxicity after standard treatments with a confirmed pathological diagnosis.ðŸ§
Â
In September of the previous year, Tuoxin Tiancheng announced that their TX103 CAR-T cells, in collaboration with Tcelltech in the United States, received FDA approval for Investigational New Drug (IND) status for the treatment of malignant brain gliomas. This achievement represents a crucial milestone in Tuoxin Tiancheng’s efforts to address solid tumor treatments and promote internationalization. According to a Tuoxin Tiancheng press release, early clinical trial studies with TX103 in treating recurrent malignant brain gliomas demonstrated promising safety and efficacy signals. Furthermore, TX103 CAR-T for the treatment of malignant brain gliomas received orphan drug designation from the FDA in June 2023.ðŸ§
