NCI grants $2.9M to study RedHill's opaganib with CAR T-cell therapy for multiple myeloma.

The National Cancer Institute awarded $2.9 million to the University of Oklahoma to fund clinical trials testing RedHill Biopharma's investigational drug opaganib combined with CAR T-cell therapy for ultra-high-risk multiple myeloma. The trials aim to evaluate safety and preliminary effectiveness, potentially improving immune cell cancer-fighting ability. This study could lead to longer-lasting treatment responses for patients with poor prognosis. RedHill will supply opaganib, while the University of Oklahoma will manufacture CAR T cells on campus, reducing costs and time.

The $2.9 million NCI grant for RedHill's opaganib and CAR T-cell combination in multiple myeloma is the subject, with Pluang's Health sector data providing context. As of Oct 19, 2026 18:01 WIB, out of 150 priced Health-sector US stocks tradable on Pluang, 73 rose and 47 fell. Notable movers include AMLX at USD 26.86 (+1.97%), RLAY at USD 16.59 (+1.90%), and BFLY at USD 7.38 (+1.86%).
