Enrollment underway for patients with
metastatic/advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC)
Company expects to share preliminary Phase 1
clinical data in the first half of 2025
Adicet Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: ACET), a clinical stage biotechnology
company discovering and developing allogeneic gamma delta T cell
therapies for autoimmune diseases and cancer, today announced that
the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 1 clinical trial
evaluating ADI-270 in patients with metastatic/advanced ccRCC.
“Dosing the first patient in our Phase 1 trial of ADI-270 in
metastatic/advanced ccRCC is a significant milestone for Adicet as
we advance our first gamma delta 1 CAR T cell product candidate for
the treatment of solid tumors, one of the highest unmet needs in
oncology,” said Chen Schor, President and Chief Executive Officer
at Adicet Bio. “Patients with ccRCC, the most common type of kidney
cancer, have a pressing need for safe and effective treatments, as
current therapies offer limited benefits for patients with advanced
disease. Based on ADI-270’s encouraging preclinical data generated
to date, in which ADI-270 demonstrated significant tumor
infiltration, resistance to the immunosuppressive tumor
microenvironment and potent activity via CAR and innate-mediated
targeting, we believe ADI-270 has the potential to offer a
promising advancement for solid tumors. We anticipate reporting
preliminary clinical data from the trial in the first half of
2025.”
About the Phase 1 Trial
The Phase 1 multicenter, open-label clinical trial is designed
to investigate ADI-270 as monotherapy in adults with relapsed or
refractory metastatic/advanced ccRCC. Following lymphodepletion,
patients will be eligible to receive a single dose of ADI-270 with
a starting dose level of 3E8 CAR+ cells. Subject to meeting
protocol defined criteria, patients enrolled in the trial may be
eligible to receive a second dose of ADI-270. The dose escalation
and dose expansion portions of the trial will evaluate safety,
tolerability, and pharmacokinetics as well as anti-tumor activity
as assessed by overall response rate, duration of response and
disease control rate.

About ADI-270
ADI-270 is an armored allogeneic “off-the-shelf” gamma delta CAR
T cell therapy candidate targeting CD70-positive cancers. CD70 is a
compelling target due to its high expression in both solid and
hematological malignancies. ADI-270 is engineered with a
third-generation CAR designed to target CD70 using its natural
receptor, CD27, as the binding moiety and is further armored with a
dominant negative form of the transforming growth factor-β receptor
II (dnTGFβRII) to provide functional resilience to the
immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. ADI-270 is also designed
to increase exposure and persistence by reducing susceptibility to
host vs. graft elimination. These properties of ADI-270 combined
with the potent tumor infiltration demonstrated with gamma delta 1
T cells aim to improve clinical responses of RCC patients and other
patients with CD70+ tumors.
About Renal Cell Carcinoma
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common tumor of the
kidney, constituting 80% to 85% of primary renal neoplasms. Clear
cell RCC (ccRCC) is the most common subtype, accounting for 80% of
all RCCs. ccRCC is an aggressive subtype arising from renal stem
cells commonly arising in the proximal nephron and tubular
epithelium, and often metastasizes to the lungs, liver, and bones.
Approximately 20% of newly diagnosed cases of RCC are locally
advanced or metastatic and up to 30% of patients will develop
metastatic disease following nephrectomy. While the 5-year survival
rate for localized RCC is 93%, the 5-year survival rate for
advanced disease is 15%.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" of
Adicet within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 relating to the business and operations of

are not limited to, express or implied statements regarding:
clinical development of Adicet’s product candidates, including
future plans or expectations for ADI-270; the potential safety,
durability, tolerability and activity of ADI-270; the expected
progress, timing and success of the Phase 1 clinical trial of
ADI-270 in metastatic/advanced ccRCC, including plans to report
preliminary clinical data in the first half of 2025, and the
potential of ADI-270 to become a treatment for solid tumors and
ccRCC.
Any forward-looking statements in this press release are based
on management’s current expectations and beliefs of future events,
and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those
set forth in or implied by such forward-looking statements,

conflicts and economic conditions on Adicet’s business and
financial results, including with respect to disruptions to
Adicet’s preclinical and clinical studies, business operations,
employee hiring and retention, and ability to raise additional
capital; Adicet’s ability to execute on its strategy including
obtaining the requisite regulatory approvals on the expected
timeline, if at all; that positive results, including interim
results, from a preclinical or clinical study may not necessarily
be predictive of the results of future or ongoing studies; clinical
studies may fail to demonstrate adequate safety and efficacy of
Adicet’s product candidates, which would prevent, delay, or limit
the scope of regulatory approval and commercialization; and
regulatory approval processes of the FDA and comparable foreign
regulatory authorities are lengthy, time-consuming, and inherently
unpredictable; and Adicet’s ability to meet production and product
release expectations. For a discussion of these and other risks and
uncertainties, and other important factors, any of which could
cause Adicet’s actual results to differ from those contained in the
