Imugene Ltd (ASX:IMU) (OTCMKTS:IUGNF) MD Leslie Chong tells Proactive the company has received positive FDA feedback on an improved manufacturing process for azer-cel, an off the shelf CD19 CAR T cell therapy for blood cancers. She says the improved manufacturing process allows for increased robustness, consistency and scalability with a pivotal study potentially to start in 2024.
