Net loss for the first nine months of 2017 was $20.5 million, or $0.13 per share, compared to $21.1 million, or $0.13 per share, for the comparable 2016 period. The company ended the third quarter of 2017 with $112.7 million in cash and investments.

Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $163,000 and $874,000, respectively, compared to $5.1 million and $6.1 million for the comparable 2016 periods. Revenues for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2016 included license fee revenue of $5.0 million in connection with an upfront payment under a license agreement signed in September 2016 with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for certain rights to specialized oligonucleotide backbone chemistry and novel amidates.

An oral presentation will describe the generation of CD8αβ+ T cells from an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). This breakthrough was led by Dr. Michel Sadelain, MD, PhD, Director, Center for Cell Engineering, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), under the Company’s multi-year sponsored research collaboration with MSK. As part of the collaboration, Fate Therapeutics has created clonal iPSC master cell lines engineered to express CARs and other functional elements and are also modified to attenuate alloreactivity and enhance persistence for off-the-shelf CAR T-cell immunotherapy. The Company’s first iPSC-derived CAR T-cell product candidate FT819, which is derived from a clonal iPSC master cell line engineered to express a CAR targeting CD19 and edited to remove T-cell receptor (TCR) expression, is undergoing preclinical development.

A second oral presentation will describe the production under current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) conditions of FT500, the Company’s first-of-kind natural killer (NK) cell product candidate derived from a clonal iPSC master cell line. The transformative manufacturing paradigm, which will be described by Jeffrey S. Miller, MD, Deputy Director of the Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota, enables the efficient production of a large clonal population of NK cells in a single production run and is capable of yielding thousands of doses of homogeneous drug product for off-the-shelf delivery to patients. Fate Therapeutics plans to file a landmark Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in the first quarter of 2018 to initiate first-in-human clinical investigation of FT500 in combination with FDA-approved checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of advanced solid tumors.

In addition, Fate Therapeutics will present clinical data from the PROTECT study of ProTmune, a next-generation hematopoietic cell graft for patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Key clinical outcomes, including incidence rates of acute graft-versus-host disease, cancer relapse and survival at 100 days following HCT, for the seven subjects administered ProTmune in the Phase 1 stage of PROTECT will be released. Three other poster presentations will highlight additional iPSC-derived immuno-oncology product candidates that the Company is developing.
