The approval will initiate a phase I, first-in-human, multicenter clinical study of ACE1831 in patients with NHL.

“Based on ACE1831’s encouraging preclinical data, we believe that our antibody­armed [gamma delta] T-cell therapy has the potential to provide additional treatment options for patients with NHL,” Sonny Hsiao, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of Acepodia, said in a statement.
