Company presentation summary
2 Mar, 2026Strategic focus and pipeline
Advancing next-generation CAR T-cell therapies to improve outcomes in hematologic malignancies and solid tumors, with a focus on large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) and metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
Pipeline includes ronde-cel (dual-targeting CD19/CD20 CAR T) for LBCL and LYL273 (GCC-targeted CAR T) for mCRC, both showing promising clinical results.
Manufacturing facility (LyFE) supports scalable, commercial-ready production with capacity for over 1,200 doses per year.
Cash position of ~$320 million at end of Q3 2025, supporting operations and milestones into 2027.
Ronde-cel for large B-cell lymphoma
Ronde-cel demonstrated a 93% overall response rate (ORR) and 76% complete response rate (CRR) in 3L+ LBCL, with a median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 18 months.
In 2L LBCL (94% primary refractory), ORR was 83% and CRR was 61%, with 70% of complete responders maintaining response at ≥6 months.
Safety profile supports outpatient administration, with no grade 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and <5% grade ≥3 neurotoxicity (ICANS) using dexamethasone prophylaxis.
Phase 3 head-to-head trial (PINACLE-H2H) in 2L LBCL will compare ronde-cel to liso-cel or axi-cel, with pivotal data expected in 2027.
LYL273 for metastatic colorectal cancer
LYL273 achieved a 67% ORR and mPFS of 8 months at the highest dose in a U.S. Phase 1 trial for refractory mCRC.
Phase 1 data from China showed a 40% ORR and median overall survival of 25 months at higher dose levels.
LYL273 is a GCC-targeted CAR T-cell therapy enhanced with CD19 CAR expression and controlled cytokine release to improve expansion and tumor microenvironment remodeling.
Safety profile is manageable, with protocol adjustments reducing severe adverse events.
Pivotal clinical trial initiation planned for 2027.
