Forward guidance

Cabaletta anticipates three-month clinical efficacy endpoint and tolerability data for CABA-201 and six-month data for the combination cohort of the MusCAARTes™ trial in the first half of 2024.

Tailwinds

  • Cabaletta’s ability to grow its autoimmune-focused pipeline
  • Leverage the potential benefits from using the initial dose used in the September 2022 Nature Medicine publication
  • Cabaletta’s ability to retain and recognize the intended incentives conferred from the Fast Track Designation for CABA-201
  • The progress and results of its DesCAARTes™ Phase 1 trial and MusCAARTes™ Phase 1 trial
  • Statements regarding regulatory filings for its development programs, including the planned timing of such regulatory filings and potential review by such regulatory authorities

Headwinds

  • Risks related to regulatory filings and potential clearance
  • The risk that signs of biologic activity or persistence may not inform long-term results
  • Risks related to clinical trial site activation or enrollment rates that are lower than expected
  • Risks related to unexpected safety or efficacy data observed during clinical studies
  • The risk that the results observed with the similarly-designed construct employed in the recent Nature Medicine publication, including due to the dosing regimen, are not indicative of the results we seek to achieve with CABA-201
