"Harpoon has continued to progress in 2019, both in the clinic and in its development as a company. We are pleased to now have two T cell engagers in the clinic, with dosing of the first patient with our second product candidate HPN536 in April. We continue to develop additional candidates, with IND submissions expected this year and next," said Gerald McMahon, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Harpoon Therapeutics. "We believe TriTACs provide unique benefits in the exciting field of T cell engagers and we look forward to achieving a number of development milestones in 2019 across the TriTAC platform, including presentation of a maturing HPN424 dataset by the end of this year at a medical conference."

First Quarter 2019 Business Highlights and Other Recent Developments

In February, Harpoon successfully completed its initial public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $71 million.

In March, Harpoon designated its fourth Tri-specific T cell Activating Construct (TriTAC) in development, HPN328, for the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). HPN328 targets delta-like 3 (DLL3), a protein highly expressed in a majority of SCLC tumors, but not in normal tissue. This selective expression makes DLL3 an attractive drug target for T cell engagers. Harpoon is currently conducting IND-enabling studies and expects to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial of HPN328 in 2020.

In April, Harpoon dosed the first patient with HPN536, a mesothelin-targeting T cell engager, in a Phase 1/2a clinical trial for ovarian and other mesothelin-expressing solid tumors. This represents the second TriTAC that Harpoon has brought into the clinic. The study consists of two phases, an initial dose escalation phase of approximately 20 ovarian cancer patients followed by an expansion phase of up to three additional parallel cohorts of 20 patients each with ovarian, pancreatic and mesothelioma cancer. The study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and activity of HPN536. For additional information about the trial, please visit clinicaltrials.gov using the identifier NCT03872206.

Anticipated Milestones

Harpoon plans to have three TriTAC product candidates in the clinic by the end of 2019, with a fourth expected in 2020. All of Harpoon’s anticipated milestones for 2019 remain on track, as follows:

HPN424 – present additional Phase 1 data in the second half of 2019 at a medical conference

HPN536 – initiated Phase 1/2a trial in April 2019

HPN217 – initiate Phase 1 trial in the second half of 2019

HPN328 – initiate Phase 1 trial in 2020

First Quarter Financial Results

Harpoon Therapeutics ended the first quarter of 2019 with $147.6 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities compared to $89.5 million as of December 31, 2018. The increase was due to approximately $71 million in net proceeds from Harpoon’s initial public offering, completed in February 2019, partially offset by cash used in operations.

Net loss for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $13.6 million compared to $4.9 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2018.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2019 was $1.1 million compared to $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2018. The decrease was due to an upfront payment of $0.5 million recognized in the first quarter of 2018 related to our license agreement with Werewolf Therapeutics, Inc. During both periods, revenue primarily consisted of the amortized portion of the deferred $17.0 million upfront payment received in October 2017 under our collaboration agreement with AbbVie.

Research and development expense for the first quarter of 2019 was $9.4 million compared to $5.5 million for the first quarter of 2018. The increase primarily arose from clinical development expenses and an increase in personnel-related expenses, including conducting preclinical studies, continuation of the first clinical trial for lead product candidate, HPN424, and manufacturing activities for four TriTAC product candidates in various stages of development.

General and administrative expense for the first quarter of 2019 was $5.8 million compared to $1.0 million for the first quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in legal fees, consulting and accounting services related to our 2018 year-end audit, and an increase in headcount.

Atara Biotherapeutics Announces First Quarter 2019 Financial Results and Recent Operational Progress

On May 9, 2019 Atara Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATRA), a leading off-the-shelf, allogeneic T-cell immunotherapy company developing novel treatments for patients with cancer, autoimmune and viral diseases, reported financial results for the first quarter of 2019 and recent operational highlights (Press release, Atara Biotherapeutics, MAY 9, 2019, View Source [SID1234536061]).

"We have made important progress advancing our T-cell immunotherapy programs across our three major value drivers: tab-cel, multiple sclerosis and next-generation CAR T," said Isaac Ciechanover M.D., Chief Executive Officer and President of Atara Biotherapeutics. "Discussions with EMA and FDA to align on a tab-cel global regulatory strategy for patients with Epstein-Barr virus associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease are progressing, with outcomes of these discussions expected in the first half of 2019. We are also looking forward to upcoming clinical milestones for our off-the-shelf, allogeneic ATA188 Phase 1 program in progressive multiple sclerosis with initial safety and efficacy results expected this year. In addition, recent clinical results presented by our MSK collaborators reaffirm mesothelin as a promising target for patients with advanced mesothelioma and establish an important proof-of-concept advance for CAR T immunotherapy in solid tumors."

Atara continues to progress tab-cel (tabelecleucel) Phase 3 studies for patients with Epstein-Barr virus associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (EBV+ PTLD), with enrollment proceeding slower than anticipated. The Company is in discussions with the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regarding the development of tab‑cel and Atara’s intention is to align on a global regulatory strategy for patients with EBV+ PTLD. Atara now plans to submit a tab‑cel EU conditional marketing authorization (CMA) application based on initial Phase 3 results in 2020. To ensure the integrity of the ongoing, open-label tab-cel Phase 3 study, the Company anticipates disclosing initial top-line EBV+ PTLD results following acceptance of the EMA CMA application.

"Global regulators recognize the critical need of new therapies to treat patients with EBV+ PTLD," said Dietmar Berger, M.D., Ph.D., Global Head of Research and Development of Atara Biotherapeutics. "We look forward to our continued discussions with the FDA under Breakthrough Therapy Designation and EMA based on the Priority Medicines (PRIME) regulatory pathway to bring tab‑cel to patients with this often life-threating disease as expeditiously as possible."

The Company is also advancing an off-the-shelf, allogeneic ATA188 Phase 1 study in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). Initial safety results for this study are expected to be presented at the 5th Congress of the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) in June 2019. Additional safety and efficacy results from this study are expected to be presented at a scientific congress in the second half of 2019.

Atara’s collaborators at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) reported positive Phase 1 clinical results for their mesothelin-targeted CAR T immunotherapy for patients with solid tumors at the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) (Free AACR Whitepaper) Annual Meeting 2019. Efficacy and safety results were presented for patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma who may also have received pembrolizumab and lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Following administration of a novel mesothelin-targeted CAR T, MSK investigators observed a 72% response rate in a subset of these patients. Atara expects additional results from this study to be presented at the 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting.

Based on these encouraging results, Atara and MSK are advancing development of a next-generation, mesothelin-targeted CAR T immunotherapy using a novel 1XX CAR signaling domain and PD-1 dominant negative receptor (DNR) checkpoint inhibition technologies, with an IND expected in 2020.

Recent Highlights and Anticipated Upcoming Milestones

Atara plans to prioritize mesothelin CAR T development and anticipates that this program will be the first CAR T program to enter the clinic, with an IND expected in 2020.
Additional results from ongoing MSK investigator-sponsored mesothelin-targeted CAR T studies are expected to be presented at the 2019 ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting.
Corporate

Atara’s Board of Directors is conducting a search for a new Chief Executive Officer following Dr. Ciechanover’s transition plan announced in January. Dr. Ciechanover will remain in his role as President and CEO until the earlier of the appointment of his successor or June 30, 2019.
First Quarter 2019 Financial Results

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2019 totaled $237.5 million, which the Company believes will be sufficient to fund planned operations to mid-2020.
The Company reported net losses of $66.3 million, or $1.44 per share, for the first quarter of 2019 as compared to $41.4 million, or $1.05 per share, for the same period in 2018.
