Cel-Sci Corporation (NYSE American: CVM), is a biotechnology company that is testing drugs for the treatment of cancer, autoimmune and infectious diseases through the research and development of immunotherapy products.
Cel-Sci's main product is the drug Multikine, an immunotherapeutic agent designed to fight cancer by stimulating the body's immune system. Multikine is currently in Phase III of Clinical Trials with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The therapeutic has also been referred to as Leukocyte Interleukin Injection (LI). Multikine was in Phase II testing of patients with head and neck cancer in the early 2000s, in which it demonstrated tumor-reducing ability. In January 2007, the US cleared the Phase 3 trial and Multikine was designated as an orphan drug by the FDA for neoadjuvant therapy of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. 928 patients were enrolled in the head and neck cancer drug trial at that time. In June 2021, the company announced that the study missed its primary endpoint.
