Novel Lentiviral Vector: Overcoming Patent Barriers with Superior Performance

Immunofoco’s team developed a novel lentiviral vector pseudotyped with the MxV glycoprotein (MxV-G), demonstrating performance in generating CAR-T cells in vivo. Compared with the traditional VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral vector, MxV-G pseudotyped vector not only enhances viral titer and transduction efficiency but also enables generated CAR-T cells to more effectively target and kill tumor cells. This novel envelope has good clinical application potential in both traditional ex vivo CAR-T and in vivo CAR-T.

AI-Driven Optimization: Successful Construction of Precision-Engineered Tropism-Modified Mutants

To eliminate the natural tropism of MxV-G and enhance its specificity, the team used an AI-driven protein model to successfully design and construct a mutant MxV-G. The mutated MxV-G eliminates the infectivity to non-T cells while retaining its membrane-fusion-mediating activity. By introducing different T-cell targeting modules, its infectivity to T cells is restored, achieving precise targeting and improving the safety and efficacy of treatment.

Next-Generation T-Cell Targeting Molecules: Upgrading Specificity and Anti-Tumor Activity

To target T cells precisely, the team engineered multiple T-cell-targeting molecules (TCM). TCM3 demonstrated selective T-cell transduction with no off-target effects and outperformed αCD3/CD80/CD58 (MDF) and αCD3/CD80 in efficiency when paired with different membrane fusion protein variants. CAR-T cells generated by MxV-G-TCM3 showed high specificity across cell lines and reduced T-cell exhaustion markers, supporting sustained activity and improved tumor control. In mouse models, this combination exhibited significantly stronger in vivo anti-tumor efficacy compared to αCD3/CD80/CD58.

Dr. Hao Ruidong, Partner and Head of the R & D Center at Immunofoco, said, "CAR-T cell therapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, yet its complex manufacturing and high costs limit accessibility. Our novel in vivo CAR-T platform, powered by lentiviral technology, breaks foreign patent barriers in fusion proteins and T-cell targeting while showing strong in-vitro and in-vivo specificity and efficacy. With simpler manufacturing and lower costs, we aim to make this life-saving treatment accessible to more patients. Moving forward, we’ll advance its clinical potential to maximize impact."

"We are pleased that we have secured additional financing that is expected to extend our cash runway through the first quarter of 2026," said Cokey Nguyen Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Atara. "This enables Atara to continue to work to reduce costs and liabilities while maintaining the required support to achieve potential BLA approval."

Tabelecleucel (tab-cel or Ebvallo) for Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disease (PTLD)

The FDA has lifted the clinical holds on EBVALLO studies. Atara plans to resume enrollment in the Phase 3 ALLELE clinical study for patients with Epstein-Barr Virus-associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (EBV+ PTLD) and the Phase 2 label-expansion multi-cohort clinical study.
The FDA has granted a date in the second quarter of 2025 for a Type A meeting to discuss the plan to address the issues raised by the FDA in the Complete Response Letter (CRL) issued in January 2025, and the path forward for resubmission of the EBVALLO BLA.
In March 2025, the Company completed the transfer of all worldwide manufacturing and supply responsibility, including all associated costs, to Pierre Fabre Laboratories, and the Company is in active discussions on accelerating the transfer of all remaining operational activities related to tab-cel to Pierre Fabre, except the BLA sponsorship, which the Company expects to be completed as early as June 2025.
Atara remains eligible for significant milestone payments from Pierre Fabre Laboratories upon FDA approval of the EBVALLO BLA and related commercial sales of EBVALLO, as well as significant royalties as a percentage of net sales. Pierre Fabre Laboratories holds worldwide Commercialization rights to EBVALLO.
CAR T Programs Discontinued

Atara has paused development of its CAR T programs (ATA3219 and ATA3431), with anticipated completion of wind-down activities in the second quarter of 2025.
Corporate Updates

Strategic Option Evaluation: As communicated in January and March, Atara engaged a well-known financial advisor to support the assessment of a range of strategic options, which may include, but are not limited to, an acquisition, merger, reverse merger, other business combinations, sale of assets, or other strategic transactions. In April 2025, Atara paused its review of strategic options, pending the Type A meeting with the FDA which is scheduled in the second quarter of 2025, to discuss the plan to address the issues raised by the FDA in the CRL and the path forward for resubmission of the EBVALLO BLA.

Organizational Restructuring: In May 2025, Atara implemented a strategic restructuring to further reduce operating expenses and due to the wind down of the CAR T programs. This restructuring resulted in a company-wide workforce reduction of approximately 30%, retaining approximately 23 personnel essential to execute on its remaining transition responsibilities under the EBVALLO collaboration with Pierre Fabre Laboratories, including as the BLA holder until approval.

Financial Update: Atara has entered into an underwriting agreement for the issuance and sale of 834,237 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $6.61 per share and the issuance and sale of pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,587,108 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $6.6099 per share, representing fair market value based on closing, to entities affiliated with Adiumentum Capital Management, EcoR1 Capital, Panacea Venture and Redmile Group. The proceeds to Atara from the offering are expected to be $16 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by Atara. Atara currently intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund its ongoing activities required to achieve biologics license application (BLA) approval for tab-cel, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. The offering is expected to close on May 16, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

2025 Outlook and Cash Runway

Atara transitioned all tab-cel manufacturing costs and responsibilities to Pierre Fabre in the first quarter of 2025. Pierre Fabre continues to reimburse Atara for costs related to the remaining tab-cel operation activities.
In addition to reducing its headcount by approximately 85% since December 31, 2024, Atara continues to pursue additional initiatives aimed at enhancing operational efficiency.
Following the recognition of most of the one-time restructuring costs in the first quarter of 2025, we anticipate operating expenses to decrease continuously throughout the remainder of the year, with the largest reduction expected in the second quarter of 2025. In total, we expect full year 2025 operating expenses to decrease by approximately 65% from 2024.
Atara projects that cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2025, combined with the $16M gross proceeds from the May 2025 offering, in total will enable funding of planned operations into the first quarter of 2026.

Omeros Corporation Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

On May 15, 2025 Omeros Corporation (Nasdaq: OMER) reported recent highlights and developments as well as financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, which include (Press release, Omeros, MAY 15, 2025, View Source [SID1234653177]):

● Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 was $33.5 million, or $0.58 per share, compared to a net loss of $37.2 million, or $0.63 per share for the first quarter of 2024.

● At March 31, 2025, we had $52.4 million of cash and short-term investments available for operations and debt servicing, a decrease of $37.7 million from December 31, 2024.

● In March 2025, we resubmitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") our Biologics License Application ("BLA") seeking regulatory approval for narsoplimab in hematopoietic stem cell transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy ("TA-TMA"). FDA accepted the resubmission for review as a class 2 resubmission and, pursuant to the Prescription Drug User Fee Act ("PDUFA"), assigned a target date for FDA action of September 25, 2025.

● We are also preparing a European marketing authorization application ("MAA") for narsoplimab in TA-TMA, which we expect to submit in the second quarter of 2025.

● On May 12, 2025, we entered into exchange agreements with holders of our 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Convertible Notes"). We exchanged $70.8 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2026 Convertible Notes for newly issued 9.50% Convertible Senior Notes due in June 2029, on a one-for-one basis. In addition, we reached an agreement with two affiliated holders to convert $10.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes into shares of our common stock in three separate tranches, with the conversion of the entire principal to be completed no later than September 15, 2025. Following these transactions, the outstanding principal balance of the 2026 Convertible Notes will be reduced to approximately $17.1 million. Significantly, the reduction in the principal amount of our 2026 Convertible Notes eliminated the need to avoid an accelerated maturity of the entire balance of our term loan by making a $20.0 million prepayment and paying a $1.0 million prepayment premium on or prior to November 2025.

● During the first quarter we elected to temporarily suspend or pause certain activities and programs to prioritize the allocation of our currently available capital to the development of commercial infrastructure and capacities needed to ensure the successful launch of narsoplimab, assuming approval by FDA of our BLA, and to the completion of our ongoing clinical trials with enrolled patients.

● Last quarter we began initiating clinical trial sites for our Phase 3 program evaluating zaltenibart (formerly known as OMS906) for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria ("PNH"); however, based on the anticipated ramp up in spending on those trials and the need to prioritize the use of currently available capital, we determined to pause our Phase 3 PNH program temporarily. We are working with our vendors and investigators to ensure that the program is ready to be restarted with as little disruption to the timeline as possible after securing capital. We expect to complete remaining activities in our ongoing clinical trial evaluating zaltenibart for the treatment of PNH in treatment-naïve patients and to continue the long-term extension study, which enrolls zaltenibart-treated PNH patients who have completed any of our prior zaltenibart studies.

● Although preparations for the anticipated commercial launch of narsoplimab will continue, we have determined to suspend our expanded access program ("EAP") for narsoplimab, also known as compassionate use, to eliminate direct costs associated with drug supply and external management of the EAP program. We remain committed to supporting patients who are currently being treated under the EAP and discontinuation of the EAP will not affect these patients. Additionally, our ongoing study of narsoplimab in pediatric patients with TA-TMA will continue.

● Development spending on our long-acting, next generation MASP-2 inhibitor, OMS1029 has already been limited. That asset is Phase 2 ready, with drug product needed to support Phase 2 trials having been manufactured and stored, pending the selection of the first indication and the availability and allocation of resources to initiate Phase 2 studies.

● Spending in other areas of our complement programs, including our small-molecule MASP-2 and MASP-3 programs, is also being reduced or halted as part of our effort to focus resources on core development priorities.

"We are pleased that our BLA for narsoplimab in TA-TMA has been accepted by FDA, which is a significant milestone for our narsoplimab program and for Omeros," said Gregory A. Demopulos, M.D., Omeros’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We have already received and are responding to FDA’s information requests, and our highest priority as an organization is to obtain approval for narsoplimab. For this reason, we have taken action to reduce expenses and prioritize spending on the narsoplimab launch and other key priorities. In parallel, through the recently completed exchange of the large majority of our 2026 convertible notes for convertible notes maturing in 2029 and converting a small portion to equity, our total debt will be reduced by approximately $10.0 million and our near-term debt maturities will be lowered by over $100 million, reducing our short-term debt repayment obligations from approximately $118 million to approximately $17 million. This should position us well to raise additional capital for our operations."

First Quarter and Recent Clinical Developments

● Recent developments regarding OMS527, our phosphodiesterase 7 ("PDE7") inhibitor program focused on addictions and compulsive disorders as well as movement disorders, include:

● Work on the planned randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, inpatient Phase 1b clinical trial comparing the safety and efficacy of OMS527 to placebo in the treatment of adults with cocaine use disorder ("CUD") is ongoing with committed funding from the National Institute on Drug Abuse, a part of the National Institutes of Health, in the amount of $4.02 million for the year commencing April 1, 2025. Enrollment in the study is expected to begin later this year and a readout of data from the study is anticipated late this year or in early 2026.

● Recent developments regarding our oncology platform comprising signaling-driven immunomodulators, oncotoxins, and an adoptive T-cell technology combined with an immunostimulator, include:

● In April 2025, we established the Omeros Oncology Clinical Steering Committee to advance Omeros’ OncotoX biologics program focused on acute myeloid leukemia ("AML"). The clinical steering committee is composed of leaders in AML treatment and research at the premier cancer centers across the United States. These experts in the treatment of AML are expected to help guide clinical development of our potential AML therapeutic.

● We continue on a limited basis to progress pre-clinical studies within our novel oncology program, including IND-enabling studies in our OncotoX-AML program. In both in vivo and in vitro models with human cell lines, our OncotoX-AML therapeutic has consistently demonstrated superior efficacy to current AML standard of care treatments. OncotoX-AML shows broad application across AML regardless of genetic mutation including TP53, NPM1, KMT2a, and FLT3. IND-enabling work is ongoing with an estimated timeline to clinical entry of 18-24 months.

Financial Results

Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 was $33.5 million, or $0.58 per share, compared to a net loss of $37.2 million, or $0.63 per share for the first quarter of 2024.

At March 31, 2025, we had $52.4 million of cash and short-term investments available for operations and debt service, a decrease of $37.7 million from December 31, 2024.

For the first quarter of 2025, we earned OMIDRIA royalties of $6.7 million on Rayner’s U.S. net sales of $22.3 million. This compares to earned OMIDRIA royalties of $9.4 million during the first quarter of 2024 on U.S. net sales of $31.2 million. Per the terms of our original 2022 and amended 2024 agreements with DRI Health Acquisition LP, ("DRI"), all U.S. based royalties through 2031 are remitted from Rayner to DRI through an escrow agent.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2025 were $35.0 million compared to $39.0 million for the first quarter of 2024. The $4.1 million decrease was primarily due to the wind down of our clinical program developing narsoplimab for IgA nephropathy offset by increased clinical development costs with Phase 2 of our zaltenibart program.

Interest expense during the first quarter of 2025 was $3.7 million compared to $8.2 million during the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to repurchasing and retiring $118.1 million of par on our 2026 Notes in June 2024 and recording a non-cash remeasurement adjustment in the prior year to increase the OMIDRIA royalty obligation to reflect the sale of expanded royalties to DRI.

During the first quarter of 2025, we earned $1.1 million in interest and other income compared to $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2024. The difference is primarily due to lower cash and investments available to invest in the current quarter.

Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $4.1 million, or $0.07 per share, in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $6.7 million, or $0.11 per share, in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in OMIDRIA royalties earned in the current quarter.
