What are the key efficacy and safety data points from the Phase 1/2 study in the 2L setting?

Answer

The press release does not disclose any specific efficacy or safety results from the Phase 1/2 study of LYL314 in the second‑line (2L) setting. Lyell only notes that the product is being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 trial for relapsed/refractory large B‑cell lymphoma (LBCL) after first‑line therapy, but no objective response rates, complete‑response (CR) percentages, duration of response (DoR), or safety‑event frequencies (e.g., cytokine‑release syndrome, neurotoxicity) were reported.

Because the data are still pending, the 2L trial remains a near‑term catalyst. Until the company releases the first efficacy read‑out (typically ORR ≥ 70% and CR ≥ 30% are considered “next‑generation” for dual‑targeting CAR‑T) and safety profile (grade ≥ 3 CRS/ICANS ≤ 15% of patients), the market will price the stock on speculation. Traders should watch for a forthcoming data‑release update (likely in the next 4‑6 weeks). A strong efficacy signal combined with a manageable safety profile could trigger a short‑cover rally and upside to the $12‑$14 range, while a modest or safety‑concern‑laden read‑out may keep the stock constrained near its current $9‑$10 level. Until then, a cautious, wait‑for‑data stance is advisable.
