WARREN, N.J., April 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tevogen Bio (“Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc.” or “Company”) (Nasdaq: TVGN), today announced it has entered into an agreement with CD 8 Technology Services LLC (“CD8”) for the development and/or acquisition of a turn-key facility that is intended to support both in-house pre-clinical research and GMP cell therapy production capabilities.

Tevogen Bio will provide the primary staff and operations for the facility, which is a key component of the company’s long-term strategy to accelerate development timelines, maintain operational agility, and control cost. Tevogen Bio believes that this agreement should allow the Company to overcome significant capital barriers of entry that are typically faced in building GMP capabilities at scale. The agreement has an initial term of 12 months and will automatically renew and aligns with the previously announced topline forecasts.

“This milestone represents a significant step forward in Tevogen Bio’s infrastructure expansion to support the advancement of its pipeline of off-the-shelf, genetically unmodified CD8+ T cell therapeutics,” commented Ryan Saadi, MD, MPH, Founder and CEO of Tevogen Bio. “In addition, as we continue executing our mission to help patients, we’re also exploring additional ways to recognize our real, long-term shareholders.”

CD8 is associated with Dr. Manmohan Patel, who beneficially owns more than 5% of the Company’s common stock. The agreement formalizes a previously announced letter of intent. Specific details of the facility and related services, including scope of work, costs, and timelines, will be set out in one or more future work orders.
