(“Tevogen” or “Tevogen Bio”) (Nasdaq: TVGN), a clinical-stage specialty immunotherapy biotech pioneer developing off-the-shelf, genetically unmodified T cell therapeutics in oncology, neurology, and virology, highlights the commentary of Mittul Mehta, Tevogen’s Chief Information Officer and Head of Tevogen.AI, at the Longwood Spring MIT Conference.

Key Points from Mehta’s Commentary

Realizing the Full Potential of T Cell Therapies. Mehta emphasized that the full potential of T cell-based therapies remains untapped due to various limitations, including the imbalance between the cost of manufacturing and reimbursement rates.

Development of a New Class of T Cell Therapies. Mehta highlighted that Tevogen is leading the development of a potential new class of T cell therapies for treatment of acute viral infections, long-term consequences of viral infections such as Long COVID, viral- and non-viral-induced cancers, and certain neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis.

Overcoming Common Challenges Faced by the Industry with the CAR-T Approach. Mehta discussed that product candidates from company’s proprietary ExacTcell™ platform are designed to:

  • Mainstream cell therapy through off-the-shelf outpatient administration focusing on diseases that impact large patient populations.
  • Eliminate side effects associated with traditional CAR-based T cell therapies.
  • Significantly reduce manufacturing costs. Mehta pointed out that Tevogen has achieved the production of hundreds of doses from a single donor for its recently completed clinical trial.

Industry’s First Attempt to Develop T Cell-Based Therapies for Large Patient Populations. Mehta discussed how Tevogen designed its entire business approach, from future pricing strategies to large-scale cell therapy manufacturing plans. He highlighted that speed and cost efficiency are critical to the future of the industry, and that Tevogen believes it is poised to serve as a model for others.
