Forward guidance

Lyell believes that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances will now be sufficient to meet working capital and capital expenditure needs into 2027 while continuing to advance its clinical programs.

Tailwinds

  • Advancing a diverse pipeline of cell therapies for patients with solid tumors.
  • Currently enrolling a Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating a ROR1-targeted CAR T-cell therapy in patients with relapsed refractory triple-negative breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
  • Enrolling a second Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating reprogrammed tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) in patients with advanced melanoma, NSCLC and colorectal cancer.
  • Applying its proprietary ex vivo genetic and epigenetic reprogramming technologies to address these barriers in order to develop new medicines with improved durable clinical outcomes.
  • Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances will now be sufficient to meet working capital and capital expenditure needs into 2027

Headwinds

  • Effects of geopolitical instability
  • Macroeconomic conditions and the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Limited experience as a company in enrolling and conducting clinical trials, and lack of experience in completing clinical trials
  • Significant uncertainty associated with Lyell’s product candidates ever receiving any regulatory approvals
  • Sufficiency of Lyell’s capital resources and need for additional capital to achieve its goals
