RT-NBTXR3 followed by anti-PD-1 demonstrated favorable safety profile, disease control and tumor response in patients both naïve and resistant to anti-PD-1, suggesting that NBTXR3 may prime the immune system before checkpoint therapySeveral clinical milestones expected over the next 12-18 months including updated data in pancreatic, and head and neck cancer, and initial data in esophageal and lung cancer€66.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024, with a cash runway extended into Q4 2025 PARIS and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NANOBIOTIX (Euronext: NANO - NASDAQ: NBTX - the “Company”), a late-clinical stage biotechnology company pioneering nanoparticle-based approaches to expand treatment possibilities for patients with cancer and other major diseases, provided an update on operational progress and announced its half year financial results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. “We continue to make strong progress advancing our nanoparticle-based therapeutic approach with lead candidate NBTXR3, which is part of our global licensing agreement with Janssen Pharmaceutica NV, a Johnson & Johnson company. The agreement is designed to realize significant therapeutic and market opportunities in solid tumor cancers worldwide, starting with lung and head and neck. We also continue to establish additional expansion opportunities across multiple cancer settings as part of our ongoing collaboration with MD Anderson,” said Laurent Levy, co-founder of Nanobiotix and chairman of the executive board. “The potential of NBTXR3 to prime immune activity before an anti-PD-1 inhibitor was further reinforced with new data from Study 1100 announced at the Annual Meeting of American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) showing disease control and tumor response in patients with head and neck cancer that are naïve or resistant to prior anti-PD-1 therapy. We expect several clinical milestones over the next 12-18 months that, would further advance and broaden the potential patient population for NBTXR3 including updated data in pancreatic and head and neck cancer, and initial data in esophageal and lung cancer.” First Half 2024 Operational Highlights, Pipeline Status and Expected Milestones Strengthened Supervisory Board with the nominations of Dr. Margaret A. Liu and Ms. Anat Naschitz as board observers, two key additions intended to further equip the Company for sustainable long-term growth.

Research and Development (“R&D”) Expenses: R&D expenses consist primarily of preclinical, clinical and manufacturing expenses related to the development of NBTXR3. These expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were €22.0 million, primarily driven by an increase of the clinical development activities in NANORAY-312, compared to €17.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses: SG&A expenses consist primarily of administrative employee-related expenses, legal and other professional fees, patent filing and maintenance fees, and insurance. Total SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were €10.8 million, compared to €10.9 million for the prior-year six-month period. Net loss: Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was €21.9 million, or a €0.46 basic loss per share. This compares to a net loss attributable to common shareholders of €28.1 million, or €0.80 basic loss per share, for the same period in 2023. Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024, were €66.3 million, compared to €75.3 million as of December 31, 2023. Based on the current operating plan and financial projections, we anticipate that the cash and cash equivalents of €66.3 million as of June 30, 2024, will now fund our operations into Q4 2025, compared to Q3 2025 in prior guidance. Availability of the Half Year 2024 Financial Reports The 2024 half-year financial report has been filed with the French financial market authority (Autorité des marchés financiers). It is available to the public on the Company’s website, www.nanobiotix.com. About NBTXR3 NBTXR3 is a novel, potentially first-in-class oncology product composed of functionalized hafnium oxide nanoparticles that is administered via one-time intratumoral injection and activated by radiotherapy. Its proof-of-concept was achieved in soft tissue sarcomas for which the product received a European CE mark in 2019. The product candidate’s physical mechanism of action (MoA) is designed to induce significant tumor cell death in the injected tumor when activated by radiotherapy, subsequently triggering adaptive immune response and long-term anti-cancer memory. Given the physical MoA, Nanobiotix believes that NBTXR3 could be scalable across any solid tumor that can be treated with radiotherapy and across any therapeutic combination, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors. Radiotherapy-activated NBTXR3 is being evaluated across multiple solid tumor indications as a single agent or in combination with anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitors, including in NANORAY-312—a global, randomized Phase 3 study in locally advanced head and neck squamous cell cancers. In February 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration granted regulatory Fast Track designation for the investigation of NBTXR3 activated by radiation therapy, with or without cetuximab, for the treatment of patients with locally advanced HNSCC who are not eligible for platinum-based chemotherapy—the same population being evaluated in the Phase 3 study. Given the Company’s focus areas, and balanced against the scalable potential of NBTXR3, Nanobiotix has engaged in a collaboration strategy to expand development of the product candidate in parallel with its priority development pathways. Pursuant to this strategy, in 2019 Nanobiotix entered into a broad, comprehensive clinical research collaboration with The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center to sponsor several Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies evaluating NBTXR3 across tumor types and therapeutic combinations. In 2023, Nanobiotix announced a license agreement for the global co-development and commercialization of NBTXR3 with Janssen Pharmaceutica NV.
