Adaptimmune Therapeutics plc (NASDAQ: ADAP) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the design, development, and delivery of T-cell therapies to treat cancer. Established in 2008, Adaptimmune has grown from a private entity to one of the top biopharmaceutical IPOs in 2015, and its U.S. operations are headquartered in Philadelphia, PA. Using its proprietary T-cell receptor (TCR) platform, Adaptimmune engineers T-cells to target and destroy cancer cells. This innovative approach has led to the development of a robust pipeline of immuno-oncology product candidates primarily aimed at solid tumors.
The company’s leading programs include afami-cel and lete-cel, both engineered T-cell therapies targeting specific cancer antigens. Afami-cel, targeting MAGE-A4, has shown promising results in treating advanced synovial sarcoma, with the U.S. FDA accepting its Biologics License Application (BLA) for priority review. The anticipated approval and commercial launch of afami-cel in 2024 will mark a significant milestone for Adaptimmune, potentially making it the first engineered T-cell therapy for solid tumors available to patients. Lete-cel, targeting NY-ESO-1, is being evaluated for synovial sarcoma and myxoid round cell liposarcoma (MRCLS) in the pivotal IGNYTE-ESO trial. Preliminary results indicate a 40% response rate, meeting the primary efficacy endpoint.
Adaptimmune has formed strategic partnerships to advance its pipeline and enhance its manufacturing capabilities. Recent collaborations include agreements with Galapagos to develop next-generation TCR therapies and a $125 million debt financing deal with Hercules Capital, strengthening its financial position.
In addition to its lead programs, Adaptimmune is advancing a broad clinical and preclinical pipeline, including ADP-A2M4CD8 (uza-cel), targeting a range of solid tumors, and several other next-generation and allogeneic T-cell therapies. The company continues to invest in research and development, with plans to expand its platform and address additional cancer indications.
The company’s commitment to transforming cancer treatment is underpinned by a strategy of bringing novel therapies to market efficiently. With over $300 million in funding and strategic plans extending into 2026, Adaptimmune is well-positioned to achieve significant milestones and make substantial impacts in the field of oncology.
