CAR-T cell therapy holds great promise for treating a wide range of malignancies. Nevertheless, the CAR-T approach faces multiple challenges, including the risk of acute and long-term toxicities, a current lack of suitable targets, insufficient engraftment and persistence especially in solid tumors. In addition, currently commercially available CAR-T products can only be derived from individual patients, adding significant complexity and cost to the autologous manufacturing process.

GEMoaB’s rapidly switchable universal CAR platform UniCAR promises an improved therapeutic window and increased efficacy and safety over conventional CAR-T therapies in hematological malignancies and solid tumors. As soluble adaptors termed targeting modules (TMs) are used to provide the antigen-specificity to activate UniCAR gene-modified T-cells (UniCAR-T), the manufacturing process is significantly simplified by the ability to use the same UniCAR-T effector cell against multiple antigens and tumor types.

Natural killer (NK) cells genetically engineered to express a CAR (CAR-NK) have recently emerged as promising candidates for effective cancer treatment. Off-the-shelf CAR-NK cells from an allogeneic source, such as cord blood, can be safely administered without the need for full HLA matching, therefore eliminating the need to produce a unique CAR product for each patient. Furthermore, allogeneic CAR-NK cells have a proven track record of safety due to their lack of causing cytokine release syndrome (CRS).

In a recent publication in Nature Scientific Reports (Mitwasi et al. 2020, 10:2141), researchers of the HZDR combined the advantages of the UniCAR approach with the off-the shelf capabilities of NK cells. The publication provides proof-of-concept for a universal off-the-shelf cellular therapeutic based on UniCAR-modified NK-92 cells retargeted to GD2-expressing tumors by GD2-specific TMs. Redirected UniCAR-NK-92 cells induced specific and effective killing of GD2-expressing cells in vitro and in vivo, associated with enhanced interferon-γ production.

"We are very pleased that our co-founder Prof. Michael Bachmann and researchers of the HZDR could demonstrate that GEMoaB’s highly flexible UniCAR system can be readily applied to continuously expanding off-the-shelf NK cells, which in combination with GD2-specific TMs efficiently target and lyse GD2-expressing tumor cells such as neuroblastoma and melanoma," said Prof. Gerhard Ehninger, co-founder and CMO of GEMoaB. "UniCAR-NK cells could represent an additional universal and modular off-the-shelf platform that would allow the use of TMs against multiple antigen targets for an effective and safe therapy of cancer."

"As we are progressing with our clinical development plans for UniCAR-T-CD123 in hematological malignancies and UniCAR-T-PSMA in solid tumors, we are developing a deep pipeline of TMs directed against a wide variety of blood and solid tumor cancers," said Dr. Armin Ehninger, Chief Scientific Officer of GEMoaB. "We believe that UniCAR-NK cells could further enhance the unique flexibility of our platform by combining the advantages of UniCAR with the safety and off-the-shelf capabilities of NK cells."

In addition to the funds held in Arya’s trust account, a group of leading US healthcare investors has committed to participate in the transaction through a ~$104 million common stock PIPE. Investors in the PIPE include Perceptive Advisors, Redmile Group, Federated Hermes Kaufmann Funds, RTW Investments, Sphera Funds, and an additional healthcare focused investor, as well as current existing Company shareholders including dievini Hopp BioTech, AT Impf and Wellington Partners.

Immatics will receive gross proceeds of up to $252 million at the closing of the transaction and will continue to operate under the Immatics management team headed by Chief Executive Officer Harpreet Singh, Ph.D. The respective boards of directors of both Arya and Immatics have approved the proposed transaction. Completion of the transaction, which is expected in the second quarter of 2020, is subject to approval of Arya’s and Immatics’ shareholders and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.

Adam Stone, Chief Investment Officer of Perceptive Advisors and CEO of Arya, stated: "Immatics has established a leadership position in the rapidly evolving area of T cell receptor (TCR) based cell therapies. Immatics’ TCR-based drug candidates are designed to disrupt the current solid tumor treatment paradigm and open new avenues for cancer patients." Adam Stone further commented: "Our goal when we formed Arya was to identify a unique company with disruptive potential. Immatics’ expertise in identifying cancer targets and developing the right TCRs for immunotherapies, provided exactly that opportunity for this investment vehicle. We look forward to working closely with the Immatics’ team and are excited about the potential their technologies represent – to both patients and investors."

Harpreet Singh, Ph.D., Co-Founder and CEO of Immatics commented: "We greatly value the commitment from Perceptive Advisors and other top-tier investors who are participating in this transaction, as well as our existing investors who have supported the development of Immatics to date. We believe this business combination with Arya represents a unique opportunity to transition our company onto a global stage. Access to the US capital markets will be critical to our ability to fuel our development plans and to advance Immatics’ innovative immunotherapies through the clinic as part of our mission to improve treatment options for cancer patients."

Immatics leverages advanced technologies and biologic insight to identify otherwise inaccessible and intracellular drug targets as a basis for a broad range of cancer immunotherapies designed to overcome the current limitations in immuno-oncology. The company is actively using these targets to develop novel T cell receptors to enable a robust and specific T-cell response against cancer cells. The Company has two distinct product classes, Adoptive Cell Therapies (ACT) and TCR Bispecifics, and is advancing product candidates in both classes in the Company’s proprietary pipeline with several clinical-stage ACT lead products. Additionally, the Company has several large-scale collaborations with global leaders in the pharmaceutical industry.

Summary of Transaction
Arya raised $143.75 million in its IPO which is now (together with interest thereon) held in a trust account. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, Immatics´ equity value contribution into the proposed business combination will amount to approximately $350 million. Accordingly, Immatics´ shareholders will receive 35 million shares of the newly established Immatics N.V. in exchange for their existing Immatics shares, as contemplated by the terms of the business combination agreement. Current shareholders of Arya will also become shareholders of Immatics N.V. and will exchange their ordinary shares and warrants of Arya for ordinary shares and warrants of Immatics N.V. on a one for one basis. Existing Immatics shareholders and management are retaining 100% of their equity. Assuming that no Arya shareholders elect to redeem their shares and participation by all Immatics shareholders participate in the transaction, it is estimated that the current shareholders of Immatics will own approximately 61% of the issued and outstanding shares in the combined company at closing. Assuming that no Arya shareholders elect to redeem their shares and participation by all Immatics shareholders in the transaction, the combined company will have an initial market capitalization of approximately $634 million. Upon closing, it is expected that Immatics N.V. will be publicly traded on Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol IMTX.

Additional information about the transaction will be provided in a Current Report on Form 8-K that will contain an investor presentation to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and will be available at www.sec.gov. In addition, Immatics N.V. intends to file a registration statement on Form F-4 with the SEC, which will include a proxy statement/prospectus of Arya, and will file other documents regarding the proposed transaction with the SEC.

Nanobiotix activities and achievements in 2019

Clinical

First ever radioenhancer to receive European market approval

In April 2019, the Company announced that Hensify received European market approval enabling commercialization in 27 European Union countries for the treatment of locally advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS). Hensify is the brand name for NBTXR3 as approved for the treatment of locally advanced STS.

In July 2019, results from the randomized Phase II/III trial evaluating NBTXR3 in patients with locally advanced STS were published in The Lancet Oncology. The data from the registration study (Act.In.Sarc) demonstrated a significant advantage in both pathological complete response (pCR) and rate of margin-negative resection (R0) for those treated with NBTXR3 activated by radiation therapy (RT) versus RT alone. Data showed that an increase in efficacy was achieved with the addition of NBTXR3, without a significant difference in the safety profile compared to RT alone.

NBTXR3 may present as a valuable option for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma or liver metastasis

During an oral presentation at the ASTRO 2019 annual meeting, Nanobiotix announced phase I results in liver cancer. The study showed promising signs of efficacy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, as every evaluable patient responded and over half (62.5%) reached complete response. Moreover, given that the safety profile was very good, a 5th dose escalation level has been added to the trial.

Clinical collaboration(s)

MD Anderson

In January 2019, the Company announced a clinical collaboration with MD Anderson. This agreement expanded the clinical development plan for NBTXR3, as the nine MD Anderson-led trials will evaluate the product in new indications and patient populations, and should involve around 340 patients.

Pre-clinical collaboration(s)

MD Anderson and Weill Cornell Medical College

At AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) 2019, Nanobiotix presented pre-clinical data from studies currently being conducted through its collaborations with MD Anderson and the Weill Cornell Medical College, demonstrating the efficacy of treatment combinations including NBTXR3, radiotherapy, and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in treating resistant pre-clinical in vivo lung cancer models.

In November during SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) 2019, Nanobiotix announced new results from an in vivo pre-clinical study showing the generation of adaptive immune response (turning cold tumors into hot tumors), better local control, increased abscopal effect, and significantly increased survival for NBTXR3 activated by RT and anti-PD-1 in combination versus RT alone in combination with anti-PD-1. Additionally, an in vivo RadScopal model showed superior local control along with significant increases in abscopal effect and survival for treatments combining NBTXR3 activated by RT with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 versus all other tested combinations.

Financial Events

Registered public offering in the United States

Nanobiotix announced that it planned to conduct a registered public offering of ordinary shares, including in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADSs) in the United States, and has confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form F-1 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.2

€14m through the second tranche disbursement of financing from the European Investment Bank

Nanobiotix received €14 million in March 2019 through the second tranche disbursement of a non-dilutive loan from the European Investment Bank (EIB), which was originally announced on July 26, 2018. The payment was triggered by the achievement of two key company milestones:

– The determination of the recommended dose at 22% of the tumor volume for head and neck cancers following the end of the phase I clinical trial with NBTXR3;
– Receipt of the positive evaluation of the clinical benefit/risk ratio of NBTXR3 in STS in phase II/III by the clinical expert mandated by the French medical device notified body, GMED.

€29.5m capital increase through placement of new shares

In April 2019, the Company raised approximately €29.5m through the placement of new shares to a specific class of investors.

Laurent Levy, CEO, increased stake in Nanobiotix’s capital

At the end of April 2019, Laurent Levy subscribed to 160,000 new shares of the Company through the exercise of 160,000 founder’s warrants (bons de souscription de parts de créateur d’entreprise or BSPCE) for a total amount of 960,000 euros, bringing his ownership in the Company to 731,560 shares.

Corporate

New organizational structure

Nanobiotix announced organizational changes to align with strategic priorities post European market approval for Hensify.

Launch of Curadigm

In May 2019, Nanobiotix announced the launch of Curadigm, a new nanotechnology platform for healthcare. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nanobiotix, operating in France and in the US with a dedicated team. Curadigm opens new growth pathways for Nanobiotix beyond oncology, built on the success and expertise established through the development of NBTXR3. Curadigm’s "Nanoprimer" technology aims to prime the body to receive various therapeutics and could reshape the balance between efficacy and toxicity for patients.

Prix Galien

In December 2019, Nanobiotix received the French 2019 Prix Galien Award for Most Innovative MedTech. The Prix Galien Award recognizes outstanding achievement in biomedical and medical technology that improves the human condition.
