TScan Therapeutics shares were up 17% to $3.24 after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared its investigational new drug application for TSC-200-A0201, a TCR-T targeting human papillomavirus 16.

The stock hit its 52-week high of $6.03 on May, and is up 103% year to date.

The biopharmaceutical company said TSC-200-A0201 is its third T cell receptor cleared for clinical development.

TSC-200-A0201 targets HPV16, which is an oncogenic virus that is responsible for 57% of cervical cancers and approximately 21% of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas.
