MIRAMAR, Fla., Nov. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HCW Biologics Inc. (the “Company” or “HCW Biologics”) (NASDAQ: HCWB), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing novel immunotherapies to lengthen healthspan by disrupting the link between inflammation and age-related diseases, today reported financial results and recent business highlights for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024. Dr. Hing C. Wong, Founder and CEO of HCW Biologics, stated, “In the third quarter 2024, the Company expanded our product portfolio and possible disease indications that may be treated with our immunotherapeutic compounds, consisting of compounds constructed using two different platforms. Our expanded portfolio now includes constructs with immune-cell engagers targeting tissue factor and other cell-surface antigens associated with diseased cells and multifunctional immunotherapeutic fusions which improve the performance of immune checkpoint inhibitors.” Business Highlights We filed the IND application to obtain approval from the FDA to evaluate HCW9302 in an autoimmune indication and we are currently progressing through the review process. HCW9302 is a category-defining immunotherapeutic designed to activate and expand regulatory T cells, which deactivate inflammasomes. The novel design results in an immunotherapeutic with the therapeutic advantages of IL-2 but that is well tolerated. We believe that these studies support the clinical development of HCW9302 as a potential therapeutic agent for treatment of a broad range of proinflammatory diseases. Our clinical development focus is autoimmune diseases, including alopecia areata, and neurodegenerative diseases. We launched our financing plan in the third quarter of 2024 with the conclusion of an arbitration that has hampered our ability to raise capital and complete business development transactions. In addition to equity financings, the Company has a strategic focus on business development transactions and establishing commercialization partnerships with innovative leaders in the immunotherapy field. On November 13, 2024, the Company engaged Maxim Group to act as the exclusive placement agent to execute a multi-step equity financing strategy.On September 25, 2024, the Company entered into a nonbinding term sheet with a well-known leader in immunology. Definitive agreements are being finalized with a closing expected in the fourth quarter of 2024. The proposed license agreement includes substantial guaranteed minimum payments which are expected within the first year of the term. The license is for a preclinical molecule created with our novel protein platform, and we consider this a validation of the potential and value of this preclinical molecule for human therapy.The Company has developed a new drug discovery platform with a novel protein-based scaffold. It has already used this novel protein scaffold to construct several immunotherapeutic fusions, for development by HCW Biologics or others. The clinical development plan assumes one or more molecules constructed with this novel platform to be in clinical development in 2026, either through a Company-owned program or through the clinical program of one of the Company's licensees. Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results Revenues: Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $853,102 and $426,423, respectively. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $1.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Revenues in both periods were derived exclusively from the sale of licensed molecules to the Company’s licensee, Wugen. The licensed molecules are one of the components used in manufacturing Wugen’s products.Research and development (R&D) expenses: R&D expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $1.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively, a decrease of $480,529, or 29%. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred comparatively higher clinical expenses than it did in the comparable period in 2024, due to two ongoing clinical trials to evaluate HCW9218 in cancer. Similarly, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred comparatively higher preclinical expenses that it did in the comparable period in 2024, due to costs incurred for the IND-enabling studies required for the IND application for HCW9302 including setup costs and toxicology studies. Manufacturing costs incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 reflect costs incurred replenishing supply of the high-expressing cell line of HCW9101.General and administrative (G&A) expenses: G&A expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively, an increase of $129,216, or 9%. G&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $5.1 million and $4.8 million, respectively, a decrease of $307,237, or 6%. Changes in G&A expenses reflect cost cutting measures, offset by increases in professional fees, facilities and office expenses, and financing expenses. Legal Expenses: Legal expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $2.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 54%. Legal expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 were $4.6 million and $15.8 million, respectively, an increase of $11.2 million, or 242%. The increase in legal expenses related to preparation of testimony and evidence for the hearing and the hearing itself in connection to the arbitration with ImmunityBio and its affiliates. There has since been a Settlement Agreement and parties have agreed to a stipulation to have the arbitration dismissed along with mutual general releases. See “Financial Guidance” below.Net loss: Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 was $4.9 million and $3.9 million, respectively, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 21%. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 was $14.3 million and $26.7 million, respectively, an increase of $12.3 million, or 86%. Financial Guidance ImmunityBio and its affiliates initiated legal proceedings against the Company and Dr. Hing C. Wong, the Company’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, on December 31, 2022. Ultimately, legal proceedings against Company and Dr. Wong were consolidated in the arbitration before JAMS (“Arbitration”). As reported in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on July 18, 2024, the parties entered into a confidential Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”). The Settlement Agreement includes mutual general releases by and among the parties thereto. No party is required to make any monetary payments to any other party or person under the Settlement Agreement and each party agreed to bear its own expenses incurred in connection with the matter. Remediation activities are substantially complete, and the parties agreed to the stipulation and dismissal of the Arbitration. With the execution of the Settlement Agreement, the Company resolved the attendant uncertainties for the outcome of the arbitration and additional complexities. However, the Company incurred substantial legal fees in its defense and for the defense of Dr. Wong. As of September 30, 2024, the Company reported $14.4 million in obligations for legal fees within accounts payable on its condensed balance sheet. The Company is engaged in discussions with the law firms involved with this matter to arrange a reasonable payment plan with respect to those legal fees. As of September 30, 2024, the Company believes that substantial doubt exists regarding its ability to continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from the issuance date of the condensed interim financial statements, without additional funding or financial support. The Company launched a multi-faceted financing plan in the third quarter of 2024 to raise the capital required through equity financings and business development transactions to fund the future product development and operations of the Company. A major objective of the financing strategy is to regain compliance with Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). We were notified by Nasdaq staff that we are not in compliance with continued listing requirements on the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company was granted a period of 180 calendar days by Nasdaq in which to comply. The first deadline is currently scheduled for December 16, 2024. The Company intends to take all reasonable measures available to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Global Market, and will utilize our right to appeal to Nasdaq to extend our deadline to regain compliance based on a solid financial plan to do so. About HCW Biologics: HCW Biologics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing novel immunotherapies to lengthen healthspan by disrupting the link between chronic, low-grade inflammation, and age-related diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular, diabetes, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune diseases, as well as other inflammatory conditions such as long-haul COVID-19. The Company has combined a deep understanding of disease-related immunology with its expertise in advanced protein engineering to develop two drug discovery platforms, each with a novel backbone which is used to generate designer, novel multi-functional fusion molecules with immunotherapeutic properties. The Company’s legacy drug discovery platform is its TOBI™ (Tissue factOr-Based fusIon) discovery platform, has a Tissue-Factor based backbone. It was used to create HCW Biologics’ molecules, HCW9218, HCW9302, HCW9206 and HCW9201. The Company’s second drug discovery platform uses a unique protein-based backbone differentiated from Tissue Factor. Immunotherapeutics created with the Company’s two distinct drug discovery platforms have different characteristics and mechanisms of action, expanding the various pathways for treating senescence-associated disorders. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center has agreed to include HCW9218 in an Investigator-sponsored Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with metastatic, advanced stage ovarian cancer in combination with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT05145569).

-- First Pivotal Trial for an Off-the-Shelf, Allogeneic CD7-Targeted CAR-T Cell Therapy to Begin in First Quarter 2025-- The Global Study Will Evaluate WU-CART-007 in Pediatric and Adult Patients ST. LOUIS, Mo. and SAN DIEGO, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wugen, Inc., a clinical-stage U.S. biotechnology company developing allogeneic, off-the-shelf cell therapies for the treatment of hematological and solid tumor malignancies, today announced it will initiate a pivotal Phase 2 study in the first quarter of 2025 for the company’s potential first-in-class, investigational, anti-CD7 CAR-T cell therapy, WU-CART-007, in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL). “T-ALL/LBL is an aggressive cancer with a significant need for new therapies given that many patients will progress on standard of care,” said Kumar Srinivasan, Ph.D., Wugen president and chief executive officer. “Wugen is well positioned for this critical stage of research and development for WU-CART-007. Recently, we generated positive Phase 1/2 results; received significant new regulatory designations – RMAT and PRIME – to expedite our clinical development path in the United States and Europe; and deepened our cell therapy expertise with Cherry T. Thomas, M.D. joining our team as chief medical officer.” The pivotal Phase 2 study is a single-arm trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of WU-CART-007 in patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL and T-ALL/LBL. The study will evaluate the efficacy of WU-CART-007 in two groups: an R/R cohort and an exploratory minimum residual disease (MRD)-positive cohort. The trial will enroll pediatric and adult patients at oncology centers in the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia. “With a 20-year void of new medicines to treat patients with relapsed or refractory T-ALL/LBL, many of whom are young, we believe off-the-shelf allogeneic CD7-targeted CAR-T cell therapies may offer hope and innovation,” said Dr. Thomas, Wugen’s chief medical officer. “Wugen’s progress in advancing WU-CART-007 also includes a robust, scalable and efficient commercial manufacturing process, developed with our partners to create a CD7-targeted therapy for off-the-shelf use,” said Matt Cooper, Ph.D., Wugen’s co-founder and chief scientific officer, who invented WU-CART-007 as a researcher at Washington University in St. Louis, MO. Wugen previously announced positive results from a Phase 1/2 cohort expansion study showing clinically manageable safety and evidence of anti-leukemic activity (overall response rate of 91%) in heavily pre-treated patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL. Researchers will present a data update at the American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting (ASH) 2024, Dec. 7-10 in San Diego.
