SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — Senti Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNTI) (“Senti Bio”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing next-generation cell and gene therapies using its proprietary Gene Circuit platform, today announced that it will deliver two presentations, including one oral, on its SENTI-202 clinical program, at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition being held December 6-9, 2025 in Orlando, Florida. Senti Bio will also host a live webcast to discuss the latest data during the annual meeting.
“Relapsed/refractory AML is a disease with poor prognosis. There is a tremendous unmet need for effective medicines that can aggressively kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells. With this in mind, we designed our Logic Gate technology to kill AML cells displaying CD33 OR FLT3 cancer targets and to spare normal cells displaying the EMCN healthy target even if they express CD33 and/or FLT3,” commented Timothy Lu, MD, PhD, Co-Founder and CEO of Senti Biosciences. “At ASH, we’re thrilled to present an expanding body of evidence, with more patients and more follow-up data, that continues to demonstrate the potential for the industry’s first cell therapy that makes complex, autonomous decisions to transform the relapsed/refractory AML treatment landscape, as well as to open the door to more aggressive, yet safe therapies for other hard-to-treat cancers.”
Details of the oral and poster sessions are available on the ASH website and below:

About SENTI-202
SENTI-202 is the first Logic Gated off-the-shelf CAR-NK cell therapy product candidate designed to selectively target and eliminate CD33 and/or FLT3 expressing hematologic malignancies, such as AML and myelodysplastic syndrome (“MDS”), while sparing healthy bone marrow cells. SENTI-202 has three main components. First, SENTI-202 contains an OR GATE, which is an activating CAR that recognizes and kills CD33 and FLT3 expressing cells. By targeting either or both of these antigens, SENTI-202 is designed to effectively kill both leukemic blasts (that largely express CD33) and leukemic stem cells (that predominantly express FLT3), which constitute a difficult-to-eradicate reservoir of AML disease. Second, SENTI-202 contains a NOT GATE, which is an inhibitory CAR that is designed to recognize EMCN selectively expressed on healthy hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells and protect those healthy cells from being killed even if they express CD33 and/or FLT3, thus potentially widening the therapeutic window. Third, SENTI-202 contains calibrated-release IL-15, which is designed to significantly increase cell persistence, expansion and activity of both the CAR-NK cells and host immune cells. The NK cells used to construct SENTI-202 are sourced from selected healthy adult donors, manufactured, cryopreserved and available off-the-shelf for use as needed. Senti Bio is currently enrolling adult patients with R/R CD33 and/or FLT3 expressing heme malignancies in a Phase 1 clinical trial for SENTI-202, which can be a potential first-in-class allogeneic treatment for AML/MDS patients.
Earlier this year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Orphan Drug Designation to SENTI-202 for the treatment of relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies including AML.
About AML1,2
AML is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow and is one of the most common types of acute leukemia in adults. It is estimated there will be 22,010 new cases of AML in the United States in 2025. At diagnosis, the five-year survival rate for these patients is approximately 32.9%. Newly diagnosed AML is currently treated with chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and/or allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplant. For patients with R/R AML, there are few treatment options and median overall survival is typically approximately five months.
About Senti Bio
Senti Bio is a biotechnology company developing a new generation of cell and gene therapies for patients living with incurable diseases. To achieve this, Senti Bio is leveraging its synthetic biology platform to engineer Gene Circuits into new medicines with enhanced precision and control. These Gene Circuits are designed to precisely kill cancer cells, to spare healthy cells, to increase specificity to target tissues, and/or to be controllable even after administration. The Company’s wholly-owned pipeline is comprised of cell therapies engineered with Gene Circuits to target challenging liquid and solid tumor indications. Senti’s Gene Circuits have been shown preclinically to work in both NK and T cells. Senti Bio has also preclinically demonstrated the potential breadth of Gene Circuits in other modalities and diseases outside of oncology, and continues to advance these capabilities through partnerships.
