Pipeline Update
Building on its proven end-to-end competency in engineered cell therapy, Abeona will focus its development efforts on ABO-701, a recently licensed radically novel engineered T-cell therapy targeting Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA).

Abeona expects to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application and commence first-in-human studies with ABO-701 in the second half of 2027 while engaging a contract development and manufacturing organization for supply readiness in the meantime.
