Scans of this first patient in the second cohort show 8.5% reduction in tumor size

Kiromic BioPharma, Inc. (OTCQB: KRBP) (“Kiromic” or the “Company”) reports favorable safety and tolerability, and early efficacy in the fourth patient enrolled in the Company’s Deltacel-01 Phase 1 clinical trial. Deltacel-01 is evaluating Deltacel™ (KB-GDT-01), Kiromic’s allogeneic, off-the-shelf, Gamma Delta T-cell (GDT) therapy, in patients with stage 4 metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have failed to respond to standard therapies.

Preliminary results of this first patient in the second cohort obtained six weeks after beginning treatment show a favorable safety and tolerability profile, while imaging shows promising early efficacy for the Deltacel™ treatment. Scans showed disease stabilization, no new sites of metastatic disease and an 8.5% reduction in the tumor size. Additionally, this patient experienced quality-of-life benefits from Deltacel treatment including stopping their previous need for prescription pain medication. This patient is being treated at the Beverly Hills Cancer Center (BHCC).

“The fourth patient in Deltacel-01 suffered from metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. They were enrolled in this trial after failing chemotherapy, antibody-based immunotherapy and standard radiotherapy. The six-week follow-up visit revealed stable disease, no new lesions and an 8.5% reduction in tumor size compared with pre-treatment measurements. In addition, while at the time of study enrollment this patient was taking a medication for cancer pain, it was not necessary any longer after receiving Deltacel, indicating a quality-of-life improvement,” said Afshin Eli Gabayan, M.D., Medical Oncologist, Medical Director and Principal Investigator at BHCC.

“These encouraging clinical findings represent a strong start to the second cohort in our Deltacel-01 trial. We are particularly encouraged by the reduction in size of the tumor observed in this patient, and by the significant improvement in quality of life as evidenced by the reduction in cancer-related pain. Our team remains committed to advancing Deltacel-01 and we look forward to reporting preliminary results from the remainder of the three-patient second cohort in June,” said Pietro Bersani, Chief Executive Officer of Kiromic BioPharma.

About Deltacel-01

In Kiromic’s open-label Phase 1 clinical trial, titled “Phase 1 Trial Evaluating the Safety and Tolerability of Gamma Delta T Cell Infusions in Combination With Low Dose Radiotherapy in Subjects With Stage 4 Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer” (NCT06069570), patients with stage 4 NSCLC will receive two intravenous infusions of Deltacel™ with four courses of low-dose, localized radiation over a 10-day period. The primary objective of the Deltacel-01 trial is to evaluate safety, while secondary measurements include objective response, progression-free survival, overall survival, time to progression, time to treatment response and disease control rates.

About Deltacel™

Deltacel™ (KB-GDT-01) is an investigational gamma delta T-cell (GDT) therapy currently in the Deltacel-01 Phase 1 trial for the treatment of stage 4 metastatic NSCLC. An allogeneic product consisting of unmodified, donor-derived gamma delta T cells, Deltacel™ is the leading candidate in Kiromic’s GDT platform. Deltacel™ is designed to exploit the natural potency of GDT cells to target solid cancers, with an initial clinical focus on NSCLC, which represents about 80% to 85% of all lung cancer cases. Data from two preclinical studies demonstrated Deltacel™’s favorable safety and efficacy profile when it was combined with low-dose radiation.
