11:23 Sunday, September 5, 2021 (RTTNews.com) - Adaptimmune Therapeutics plc (ADAP) provided updated data from its Phase 1 ADP-A2AFP trial for patients with liver cancer.

The company reported a complete response in one patient, and tumor reductions with stable disease that has lasted more than 16 weeks in two patients as well as disease control in most patients at the target dose.
