Forward guidance

TScan Therapeutics anticipates several near-term catalysts, including providing an update on the Phase 1 umbrella trial for TSC-100 and TSC-101 by the end of 2022, progressing IND-enabling studies for solid tumor programs, and submitting IND applications for two TCRs by the end of 2022.

Tailwinds

  • Progressing IND-enabling studies for solid tumor programs.
  • Submitting IND applications for two TCRs by the end of 2022, including TSC-200-A2 for HPV and TSC-204-C7 for MAGE-A1.
  • Filing additional INDs for solid tumor programs by the end of 2023.
  • Releasing initial clinical data for TCRs in the solid tumor series by the end of 2023.
  • Existing cash and cash equivalents are expected to fund operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into 2024.

Headwinds

  • Up to 40% of patients who receive HCT with RIC relapse within two years, at which point there are limited treatment options and poor prognosis.
  • The company reported a net loss of $15.1 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
  • Research and development expenses increased by $3.7 million compared to the same quarter in the previous year.
  • General and administrative expenses increased by $2.1 million compared to the same quarter in the previous year.
  • The company's future success depends on the successful development and commercialization of its TCR-T therapy candidates, which are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties.
