Targeted Conditioning
To the best of our knowledge,
−Removed: we are advancing the only multi-target, multi-indication, clinical-stage pipeline for targeted conditioning and the only ARC-based targeted
−Removed: conditioning regimens in development.
−Removed: Our ARCs for targeted conditioning are intended to potentially enable improved access and outcomes
−Removed: to cell-based therapies with curative potential, including BMT, ACT, and gene therapy Conditioning in the context of BMT, ACT or gene
−Removed: therapy is the act of depleting certain blood and immune-forming cells, including bone marrow stem cells and, in some cases, cancer cells
−Removed: prior to transplanting new cells into a patient.
−Removed: Currently, conditioning is accomplished using a combination of cytotoxic chemotherapeutic
−Removed: agents and external radiation.
−Removed: These non-targeted conditioning regimens are highly toxic and may prevent a patient from receiving a potentially
−Removed: curative therapy and hinder outcomes.
−Removed: ARCs have the potential to increase patient access and outcomes by way of their ability to selectively
−Removed: deplete targeted cells while sparing normal healthy cells, resulting in potentially lower systemic and off-target toxicities.
−Removed: our ARCs both at high isotope dose levels to achieve myeloablation, which fully depletes bone marrow stem cells and at lower isotope
−Removed: dose levels to achieve lymphodepletion, which spares bone marrow stem cells from depletion.
−Removed: In addition, dosing may be titrated downward
−Removed: from myeloablative doses to achieve partial myeloablation, which may be appropriate for certain gene therapy programs.
+Added: we are advancing the only multi-target, multi-indication, clinical-stage pipeline for targeted conditioning.

CD45 Targeted Conditioning Program
−Removed: Our CD45 ARC is comprised
−Removed: of the anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody known as apamistamab (formerly BC8) and the radioisotope Iodine-131 (“I-131”).
−Removed: an antigen expressed on leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma cancer cells, as well as nucleated immune cells including bone marrow stem cells,
−Removed: but is not expressed outside of the hematopoietic, or blood forming, system.
−Removed: This unique expression on blood cancer and immune cells enables
−Removed: simultaneous depletion of both cell types, making CD45 an optimal antigen for targeted conditioning applications.
−Removed: CD45 is a cell surface
−Removed: antigen with an average expression of 200,000 copies per cell, however, it only internalizes at a rate of 10-15%.
−Removed: We believe our ARC approach
−Removed: is the most effective method to target CD45 positive cells, as the radioisotope payload linear energy transfer can readily ablate a targeted
−Removed: cell without requiring payload internalization like an antibody drug conjugate or without relying on biological effector function processes
−Removed: like a naked antibody.
−Removed: Furthermore, since CD45 expression level varies from low to high antigen density as the immune cells become more
−Removed: terminally differentiated, we can selectively condition depending on the therapeutic application, from full myeloablation to transient
−Removed: lymphodepletion, by adjusting the dose or intensity of the I-131 isotope payload.
−Removed: Full myeloablation can be achieved with high doses of
−Removed: I-131, as its energy pathlength and crossfire effect can penetrate into bone marrow niches to target and deplete blood and immune system
−Removed: forming bone marrow stem cells.
−Removed: Myeloablation is applicable to autologous or allogeneic BMT and to autologous gene-edited or modified
−Removed: therapies that can reconstitute a patient’s blood and immune systems.
−Removed: Alternatively, low doses of I-131 can be transiently lymphodepleting
−Removed: and spare a patient’s bone marrow stem cells, which we believe is ideal for ACT applications such as CAR-T.
−Removed: We intend to develop
−Removed: our CD45 targeted conditioning program for BMT, ACT and gene therapy applications for malignant and non-malignant diseases and believe
−Removed: that multiple radioisotopes beyond I-131 may be utilized including alpha and beta emitters.
−Removed: Our lead CD45 targeted conditioning
−Removed: product candidate is Iomab-B, which uses high doses of I-131 to achieve myeloablative conditioning prior to a BMT, is currently being
−Removed: studied in the pivotal Phase 3 Study of Iomab-B in Elderly Relapsed or Refractory AML (“SIERRA”), clinical trial for targeted
−Removed: conditioning prior to an allogeneic BMT for patients with active, relapsed or refractory (“r/r”) Acute Myeloid Leukemia, (“AML”),
−Removed: who are age 55 or older.
−Removed: Enrollment of the planned 150 patients in the SIERRA trial was completed in September 2021.
−Removed: Patients with active,
−Removed: r/r AML are not normally considered eligible for BMT and the SIERRA trial is the only randomized Phase 3 trial to offer BMT as a treatment
−Removed: option for this patient population.
−Removed: The SIERRA trial compares outcomes of patients randomized to receive Iomab-B and a BMT (the “study
−Removed: arm”) to those patients randomized to receive physician’s choice of salvage therapy (the “control arm”).
−Removed: arm is also defined as conventional care, as no standard of care exists for this patient population and includes over 20 agents that may
−Removed: be used as single agents or in combination including venetoclax, a targeted Bcl-2 inhibitor, Midostaurin and Sorafenib, targeted FLT3
−Removed: inhibitors, hypomethylating agents and cytotoxic chemotherapies.
−Removed: Patients who fail to achieve a Complete Remission (“CR”)
−Removed: on the control arm are ineligible to proceed to a BMT, but the trial design permits these patients to “cross over” to receive
−Removed: the study arm treatment if they meet the eligibility criteria.
−Removed: The primary endpoint of the SIERRA trial is durable Complete Remission
−Removed: (“dCR”) of 180 days and the secondary endpoint is Overall Survival (“OS”).
−Removed: When the crossover patients receive
−Removed: Iomab-B and BMT, they have not achieved remission with their salvage therapy and are considered to be failures for the primary endpoint
−Removed: of the study.
−Removed: The SIERRA trial recruited patients at 24 sites in the United States and Canada, which includes many of the leading BMT
−Removed: sites based on volume.
−Removed: If approved, we expect our initial commercial launch would target the leading 50-100 BMT and medical centers that
−Removed: perform the vast majority of BMT’s in the United States.
−Removed: In the European Union (“EU”), we received favorable feedback
−Removed: from the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) via their scientific advice program that the trial design, primary endpoint and
−Removed: planned statistical analysis from the SIERRA trial are acceptable as the basis for a Marketing Authorization Application, or MAA.
−Removed: Additionally,
−Removed: the EMA commented that it does not anticipate the need for further standalone preclinical toxicology or safety studies.
−Removed: Overall, transplant
−Removed: procedures in the EU are approximately fifty percent higher than in the United States with a similar market dynamic, with a majority of
−Removed: BMT volume being conducted in a concentrated number of leading medical centers.
−Removed: Currently we intend to secure a partner for Iomab-B in
−Removed: Data from the first 113 patients
−Removed: enrolled in the SIERRA trial, which represents 75% of the total of 150 patients that were enrolled in the trial, was presented in oral presentations

−Removed: Therapy (“TCT”) Meetings of the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (“ASTCT”) and Center
