NEW YORK, Nov. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cellectis (Euronext Growth: ALCLS – Nasdaq: CLLS), a clinical-stage biotechnology company using its pioneering gene-editing platform to develop potentially life-saving cell and gene therapies, announced its results for the three-month and nine-month periods ending September 30, 2022.

“2022 has been a productive year thus far for Cellectis. Today, we were proud to announce that our UCART123 abstract was accepted for an oral presentation at the American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting. Acute myeloid leukemia presents a huge unmet medical need with a lack of cell therapy options, and these encouraging preliminary clinical data are a great step for patients with this condition,” said André Choulika, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Cellectis.

“We continue to enroll patients in our three Cellectis-sponsored Phase 1 dose escalation clinical trials and are very excited to initiate the dosing of patients with our product candidates UCART22 and UCART20x22 that have been fully manufactured in-house. This quarter, our partnerships continued to be a highlight for Cellectis, as several of our licensed partners disclosed exciting milestones. Our licensed partner, Allogene Therapeutics, announced that it was entering into the potentially pivotal Phase 2 trial, for patients with large B-cell lymphoma. Iovance Biotherapeutics announced that the first patient was dosed and completed the safety observation period in the IOV-GM1-201 clinical trial of Iovance’s first genetically modified TALEN®-edited TIL therapy for the treatment of previously treated advanced melanoma or metastatic NSCLC. These achievements showcase once more that TALEN® is a technology of choice for leading cell and gene therapy companies, and that we are continuing to deliver on our promise of constant innovation in order to advance the efforts of both our and our partner’s clinical trials. Cellectis remains steadfast in its mission to develop innovative cancer therapy product candidates, and I am proud of the progress we have made in our journey this year.”

Licensed Allogeneic CAR T-cell Development Programs
Allogene Therapeutics, Inc.’s CAR T programs utilize Cellectis technologies.

ALLO-501 and ALLO-501A are anti-CD19 products being jointly developed under a collaboration agreement between Servier and Allogene based on an exclusive license granted by Cellectis to Servier (the “Servier Agreement”). Servier grants to Allogene exclusive rights to ALLO-501 and ALLO-501A in the U.S. while Servier retains exclusive rights for all other countries. In September 2022, Servier communicated that it was discontinuing its involvement in the development of in-licensed CD19 products and purporting to provide Allogene with the ability to elect to obtain a license to the CD19 Products outside of the United States. We are evaluating all available options and contractual remedies to address the foregoing matters and other performance issues, which we believe may involve material breaches of the Servier Agreement by Servier.

Allogene’s anti-BCMA and anti-CD70 programs are licensed exclusively from Cellectis by Allogene and Allogene holds global development and commercial rights to these programs.

Servier and Allogene: anti-CD19 programs 

  • On October 6, 2022, Allogene announced it has initiated potentially pivotal allogeneic CAR T Phase 2 clinical trial of ALLO-501A (ALPHA2 trial) in patients with relapsed/refractory (r/r) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). Allogene expects that the ALPHA2 trial will enroll approximately 100 patients who have received at least two prior lines of therapy and have not received prior anti-CD19 therapy. Allogene announced that updated clinical data from the CD19 program will be provided at Allogene’s R&D Showcase on November 29, 2022.

Allogene: anti-BCMA program

  • On November 2, 2022, Allogene announced that the Phase 1 portion of the UNIVERSAL trial on ALLO-715 continues enrolling patients with r/r multiple myeloma (MM). Allogene also announced it will provide a clinical update from UNIVERSAL focused on a single dose ALLO-715 and discuss next steps for the program at the R&D Showcase.

Allogene: solid tumor program

  • On November 2, 2022, Allogene stated that ALLO-316, which targets CD70, its first AlloCAR T candidate for solid tumors, is being studied in patients with advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in the Phase 1 TRAVERSE trial. 

Gene Editing Partnerships

Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (“Iovance”) 

  • On October 10, 2022, Iovance announced that the first patient was dosed and completed the safety observation period in the IOV-GM1-201 clinical trial of Iovance’s first genetically modified TIL therapy in development, IOV-4001, for the treatment of previously treated advanced melanoma or metastatic NSCLC.
  • To inactivate the gene coding for the PD-1 protein, IOV-4001 utilizes the gene-editing TALEN® technology licensed from Cellectis. This single genetic modification in IOV-4001 has the potential to enhance the antitumor activity of the TIL mechanism to directly target and kill tumor cells.
  • Dosing the first patient with IOV-4001 is an important first step in providing proof-of-concept for delivering genetically modified TIL therapy to solid tumor patients with significant unmet needs and few treatment options.

Cytovia Therapeutics

  • Cytovia announced it will present new preclinical data on TALEN® gene-edited, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)-derived Natural Killer (NK) cells at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer’s (SITC) Annual Meeting. The abstract, entitled “TALEN®-Based Gene-Edited iPSC-Derived NK (iNK) Cells Demonstrate Enhanced Antitumor Activity”, was accepted for poster presentation.
  • These data highlight the progress of Cellectis’ research and development collaboration with Cytovia to develop TALEN®-edited iPSC NK and CAR-NK cells. Cellectis has developed custom TALEN® which Cytovia is using to edit iPSCs in a safe and effective manner.
  • The poster presentation will occur on November 11, from 9:00AM until 9:00PM ET, Poster Hall.

Corporate Updates

Appointment

  • On September 28, 2022, Cellectis announced the appointment of Mark Frattini, M.D., Ph.D., as Chief Medical Officer.
  • Dr Frattini joined Cellectis in August 2020 as Senior Vice President of Clinical Sciences and has been responsible for Cellectis’ clinical leadership including the clinical development strategy of the Company’s current immune-oncology UCART product candidates. He has also been serving as a core member of the senior clinical team and has been managing a team of physicians and clinical scientists. As Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Frattini oversees clinical research and development for Cellectis’ UCART clinical trial programs. He remains based in Cellectis’ New York office and has joined the Company’s executive committee.

Financial Results

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Cellectis, which consolidate the results of Calyxt, Inc. of which Cellectis owned approximately 51.2% of outstanding shares of common stock (as of September 30, 2022), have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”).

We present certain financial metrics broken out between our two reportable segments – Therapeutics and Plants – in the appendices of this Q3 2022 financial results press release.

Cash: As of September 30, 2022, Cellectis, including Calyxt, had $103 million in consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of which $95 million are attributable to Cellectis on a stand-alone basis. This compares to $191 million in consolidated cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31, 2021, of which $177 million was attributable to Cellectis on a stand-alone basis. This net decrease of $88 million primarily reflects (i) $81 million of net cash flows used in operating, investing and lease financing activities of Cellectis, (ii) $17 million of net cash flows used in operating, capital expenditures and lease financing activities of Calyxt, and (iii) a $10 million unfavorable foreign exchange (FOREX) impact which was partially offset by (i) $10 million of net proceeds from capital raised at Calyxt in February 2022, (ii) $6 million of cash received related to research tax credit prefinancing and (iii) $3 million of cash received related to licenses and milestone payments. Based on the current operating plan, Cellectis excluding Calyxt anticipates that the cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as of September 30, 2022 will fund Cellectis’ operations into early 2024.

Revenues and Other Income: Consolidated revenues and other income were $9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $53 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. 99% of consolidated revenues and other income was attributable to Cellectis in the first nine months of 2022. This decrease between the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was mainly attributable to (i) a decrease of revenue pursuant to the recognition of a $15 million convertible note obtained as consideration for a “right-to-use” license granted to Cytovia and a $5 million Allogene milestone during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, while revenue related to collaboration agreements for the nine months of 2022 consists of the recognition of two milestones related to Cellectis’ agreement with Cytovia for $2 million and the recognition of $1 million related to a change of control of a licensee pursuant to the terms of its license agreement with Cellectis and the amendment to the license agreement (extension of the option term) (ii) a decrease in other revenues of $24 million relating to a change in Calyxt’s business model for its PlantSpring technology and BioFactory, in which no significant revenue was yet recognized.

Cost of Revenues: Consolidated cost of revenues were $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $29 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This decrease is driven by the change in Calyxt’s business model for its PlantSpring and BioFactory.

R&D Expenses: Consolidated R&D expenses were $85 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $97 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. 89% of consolidated R&D expenses was attributable to Cellectis in the first nine months of 2022. The $11 million decrease between the first nine months of 2022 and 2021 was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease of purchases, external expenses and other by $10 million (from $57 million in 2021 to $47 million in 2022) due to lower consumables, subcontracting costs and depreciation and amortization for the therapeutic segment, (ii) a $1 million decrease in social charges on stock option, and (iii) a $3 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense partially offset by an increase of $3 million in wages and salaries mainly driven by the increased R&D headcount in the therapeutic segment.

SG&A Expenses: Consolidated SG&A expenses were $25 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $28 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. 62% of consolidated SG&A expenses was attributable to Cellectis in the first nine months of 2022. The $3 million decrease primarily reflects (i) a $3 million decrease in wages and salaries, (ii) a $1 million decrease in purchases, external expenses and other (from $14 million in 2021 to $12 million in 2022) partially offset by (i) a $3 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense mainly explained by the favorable impact in 2021 of the recapture of non-cash stock-based compensation from the forfeiture of certain of Calyxt’s former CEO’s unvested stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units following his departure.

Net Income (loss) Attributable to Shareholders of Cellectis: The consolidated net loss attributable to shareholders of Cellectis was $79 million (or $1.74 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, of which $73 million was attributed to Cellectis, compared to $89 million (or $2.00 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of which $75 million was attributed to Cellectis. This $10 million decrease in net loss between first nine months 2022 and 2021 was primarily driven by (i) an increase in net financial gain of $14 million, (ii) a decrease of $28 million of cost of revenue, (iii) a $11 million decrease of research and development and, (iv) a $3 million decrease of SG&A expenses partially offset by a decrease in revenues and other income of $45 million.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Shareholders of Cellectis: The consolidated adjusted net loss attributable to shareholders of Cellectis was $72 million (or $1.58 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, of which $67 million is attributed to Cellectis, compared to a net loss of $80 million (or $1.79 per share) or the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of which $66 million was attributed to Cellectis. Please see "Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis to adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis.

We currently foresee focusing our cash spending at Cellectis for the Full Year of 2022 in the following areas:

  • Supporting the development of our pipeline of product candidates, including the manufacturing and clinical trial expenses of UCART123, UCART22, UCARTCS1, UCART 20x22 and new product candidates, and
  • Operating our state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities in Paris (France), and Raleigh (North Carolina, U.S.A); and
  • Continuing strengthening our manufacturing and clinical departments.

As of the date of this interim report, BALLI-01 (UCART22 Phase 1 open label Study) is currently enrolling patients at (i) dose level 3 (DL3) with an FCA preconditioning regimen and (ii) dose level 2 (DL2) using UCART22 batches manufactured from an upgraded Cellectis internal manufacturing Process 2 (P2) with an FCA preconditioning regimen.

Note Regarding Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Cellectis S.A. presents adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis in this press release. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis is not a measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. We have included in this press release a reconciliation of this figure to net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. Because adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis excludes Non-cash stock-based compensation expense—a non-cash expense, we believe that this financial measure, when considered together with our IFRS financial statements, can enhance an overall understanding of Cellectis’ financial performance. Moreover, our management views the Company’s operations, and manages its business, based, in part, on this financial measure. In particular, we believe that the elimination of Non-cash stock-based expenses from Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core businesses. Our use of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are: (a) other companies, including companies in our industry which use similar stock-based compensation, may address the impact of Non-cash stock- based compensation expense differently; and (b) other companies may report adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis alongside our IFRS financial results, including Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Cellectis.
