FOSTER CITY, Calif., Nov. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Notable Labs, Inc. (“Notable”) (Nasdaq: NTBL), a clinical stage therapeutic platform company developing predictive precision medicines for cancer patients, today announced the publication of data from an ex vivo study demonstrating the potential for its Predictive Precision Medicine Platform (PPMP) to identify more effective pre-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (pre-HSCT) regimens for the treatment of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) in the November 9th Issue of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Journal JCO Precision Oncology. Part of this data was recently presented at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Hybrid Congress held in Frankfurt, Germany on June 8 – 15, 2023. Details of that presentation can be found on the Company’s website at https://notablelabs.com/.

Key Points: 
  • JMML is a rare, aggressive pediatric malignancy for which curative treatment is restricted to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • Pre-HSCT therapies, i.e., therapies prior to transplantation, include moderately intensive chemotherapy (particularly fludarabine and cytarabine in combination (FLA)) and azacytidine (AZA) monotherapy.
  • Applying its proprietary PPMP technology to blood or bone marrow samples from JMML patients, Notable screened 130 drug combinations and discovered that 27 of these combinations (26 dual-, 1 triple-combination) were more effective ex vivo than the components of these combinations tested individually.
  • “This publication marks the culmination of a multi-year collaboration between UCSF and Notable Labs,” remarked Dr. Stieglitz.

(“Notable”), a clinical stage therapeutic platform company developing predictive precision medicines for cancer patients, today presented data from an ex vivo study demonstrating the potential for its Predictive Precision Medicine Platform (PPMP) to identify more active investigational pre-hematopoietic stem cell therapy (pre-HCST) regimens for the treatment of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Hybrid Congress being held in Frankfurt, Germany on June 8 – 15, 2023.

Key Points: 
  • Of 130 drug combinations, 27 were shown to be more active in killing leukemic cells ex vivo than compounds represented in these combinations on their own.
  • These results highlight PPMP as a potential tool for identifying superior drug combinations for patients with high medical needs, including with JMML.
  • Abstract title: Tretinoin and calcitriol enhance treatment regimens for juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia in ex vivo drug sensitivity assays.
