Allogene Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biotech company focused on allogeneic CAR T-cell therapies, announced it will host a conference call and webcast on Monday, April 13, 2026 to review the interim futility analysis from its pivotal Phase 2 ALPHA3 trial of cemacabtagene ansegedleucel (cema-cel) in first-line consolidation large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).

Why it matters

Allogene's cema-cel is an 'off-the-shelf' CAR T-cell therapy that could provide a more scalable and reliable treatment option for LBCL patients compared to autologous CAR T therapies. The ALPHA3 trial results will be an important milestone in the development of this potential new therapy.

The details

The ALPHA3 trial is a randomized, pivotal Phase 2 study evaluating cema-cel as a first-line consolidation treatment for LBCL. The interim futility analysis will assess whether the study should continue based on pre-defined criteria. Allogene will host a live conference call and webcast at 5:30am PT / 8:30am ET on April 13, 2026 to review the data.

  • Allogene will host the conference call and webcast on Monday, April 13, 2026.
