  • Both groups will receive interleukin-2 after GEN-011 dosing.

  • Initial data from the TiTAN trial is expected in late 4Q of 2021 or Q1 of 2022.

  • GEN-011 represents a category of autologous solid tumor cell therapy: neoantigen-targeted peripheral T cells (NPTs).

  • GEN-011 is a next-generation solid tumor therapy comprised of NPTs CD4+ and CD8+, specific for up to 30 antigens to limit tumor escape.

  • Price Action: GNCA shares are down 1.49% at $2.06 during the market session on the last check Tuesday.
