  • AFM13 in combination with NK cells shows very high overall and complete response rates in 41 heavily pre-treated CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients
  • Patients had a median of seven prior lines of treatment; of note, all patients failed to demonstrate objective response to immediate prior line of therapy
  • 31 Hodgkin lymphoma patients treated at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) showed an objective response rate (ORR) of 97% and a complete response (CR) rate of 77%
  • Three of four NHL patients treated at the RP2D achieved an objective response, including one CR
  • 63% of patients treated at the RP2D with at least 6 months follow-up after initial infusion (n=24) remain in complete response for at least 6 months
  • Treatment continues to be well tolerated; no instances of cytokine release syndrome, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity or graft versus host disease observed
  • Affimed to host investor event and webcast today at 4:00 p.m. CST / 5:00 p.m. EST to discuss the development plan for AFM13
