HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 12, 2024--Kiromic BioPharma, Inc.(OTCQB: KRBP) (“Kiromic” or the “Company”)reports favorable ongoing efficacy results from the eight-month follow-up visit for the fourth patient enrolled in its Deltacel-01 Phase 1 clinical trial, and provides additional updates on the first and seventh patients. This trial is evaluating DeltacelTM(KB-GDT-01), the Company’s allogeneic, off-the-shelf, Gamma Delta T-cell (GDT) therapy, in patients with stage 4 metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have failed to respond to standard therapies.

8-Month Follow-Up for Patient #4: Partial Response with Tumor Reduction of 32%

Preliminary results from the eight-month follow-up visit for the fourth patient enrolled in Deltacel-01 revealed an approximately 32% decrease in tumor volume compared with the pre-treatment size. This patient continues to experience clinical benefit without adverse events.

11-Month Follow-Up for Patient #1: Stable Disease Maintained

The first patient enrolled in the Deltacel-01 trial has maintained stable disease with no evidence of disease progression or new sites of malignancy. Kiromic last reported that in this patient, the tumor size was reduced by approximately 27% compared with the pre-treatment size, and no new sites of disease were identified. As a result, the PFS has reached 11 months with no reported adverse events. This patient's final follow-up visit is scheduled for the end of December.

Patient #7 Completes Treatment

The seventh patient successfully completed the Deltacel-01 treatment regimen and is tolerating therapy well. Initial efficacy results for this patient are expected in earlyJanuary 2025.

Patient #8 Enrolled

The eighth patient in the Deltacel-01 clinical study was enrolled this week at the Clinical Research Advisors Koreatown, a satellite location of theBeverly Hills Cancer Center(BHCC).

“The magnitude of the tumor reduction observed in Patient #4 is significant and highly encouraging. We look forward to reporting results from the first and seventh patients in January, and expect to enroll additional patients through the beginning of 2025,” saidPietro Bersani, Chief Executive Officer ofKiromic BioPharma.

"The remarkable 32% tumor reduction seen in the fourth patient treated with Deltacel is truly exciting and holds great promise for improving outcomes for patients with advanced lung cancer. As a leading cancer center focused on delivering the most innovative and effective therapies, we are proud to partner with Kiromic on this important clinical trial.
