Autolus Therapeutics Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results and Business Updates
Company reports Q1 2025 AUCATZYL ® net product revenue of $9.0 million U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) granted conditional marketing authorization for AUCATZYL ® for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL) Encouraging preliminary data reported in Phase 1 CARLYSLE trial in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE); planned Phase 2 pivotal clinical trial in lupus nephritis (LN) and Phase 1 clinical trial in progressive forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) initiating before year-end 2025 Conference call to be held today at 08:30 am EDT/13:30 pm GMT: conference call participants should pre-register using the link at the bottom of this press release LONDON, May 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Autolus Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: AUTL), an early commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company developing, manufacturing and delivering next-generation programmed T cell therapies, announces its operational and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. 'We had a great first quarter of launch and are highly encouraged by physician enthusiasm for AUCATZYL in the U.S. We believe this speaks to the product profile and significant unmet need for patients,' said Dr. Christian Itin, Chief Executive Officer of Autolus. 'Building on that momentum in the U.S., we recently obtained marketing authorization from the UK's MHRA, and we are working in collaboration with National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) to bring this much-needed therapy to patients in the UK. Our goal to expand into new markets is underpinned by our proprietary manufacturing and commercial infrastructure which has positioned us for strong execution.' 'In the second quarter we are planning to share longer-term follow-up data from the FELIX study, and in the second half of the year we plan to announce data from the pediatric PY1 trial. Building on strong data with obe-cel in r/r B-ALL, we are looking beyond ALL and recently highlighted at an R&D investor event our potential for value creation driven by obe-cel in autoimmune diseases, including lupus nephritis (LN) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Supporting our plans to pursue LN, we reported encouraging early clinical data that show obe-cel's potential to treat advanced and relapsed lupus patients. We have aligned with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on a compact Phase 2 trial design and potential registrational path to approval and we look forward to dosing the first patient in the Phase 2 trial before year-end.' Key updates and anticipated milestones: AUCATZYL ® Launch Autolus reported Q1 2025 net product sales of $9.0 million. The Company has 39 centers fully activated in the U.S. as of May 7, 2025. Patient access to AUCATZYL continues to increase, with coverage secured for approximately 90% of total U.S. medical lives. On April 1, 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) included AUCATZYL in their published Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) coding determinations and Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) payment rates, formalizing reimbursement for patients on government programs. The CMS policy splits the therapeutic dose of AUCATZYL into two administrations for coding and billing purposes. The Company is working with the treatment centers on implementing the coding and payment policy from CMS and is assessing any potential impact on the timing of revenue recognition. On April 25, 2025, the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) granted conditional marketing authorization for AUCATZYL ® (obecabtagene autoleucel) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL). The Company will work with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) on patient access to therapy and a meeting is planned for May 2025. Obe-cel is under regulatory review in the EU and the Company expects to receive notification of approval status from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in the second half of 2025. Obe-cel in lupus nephritis (LN) Preliminary data from the Phase 1 dose confirmation clinical trial (CARLYSLE) in refractory systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients were reported on April 23, 2025, and support progressing into a planned Phase 2 pivotal study. Out of six patients in the cohort, three patients had complete renal response, all by month three. Complement normalized in all patients by month one. Rash, alopecia and mucosal ulcers resolved by month three and arthritis resolved by month one in all patients. Data show high peak expansion and deep B cell aplasia consistent with known obe-cel characteristics in oncology indications. No dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) or immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) were observed in the study to date. Grade one cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was observed in three out of six patients. Hypertension, a typical sign of advanced lupus nephritis, pre-existed in three patients. On study, five of six patients experienced a transient hypertension, including Grade 3, well managed by anti-hypertensive agents. The Company has aligned with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the Phase 2 trial design and potential registrational path to approval and anticipates dosing the first patient in a Phase 2 trial before the end of 2025. Full data with longer term follow-up from the Phase 1 CARLYSLE clinical trial is targeted for presentation at a medical conference in the second half of 2025. Obe-cel in progressive MS Autolus plans to advance obe-cel into clinical development in progressive MS. The Company expects to dose its first patient in a Phase 1 dose escalation study by year-end 2025. Early-stage pipeline programs and collaborations support longer-term growth Autolus' translational programs with UCL continue to fuel its early-stage pipeline, providing a cost-efficient path to development. Summary of Anticipated News Flow: ALL: FELIX clinical trial longer-term follow up Mid-Year ALL: Notification from EU EMA regarding approval in r/r adult ALL H2 2025 ALL: PY01 trial in pediatric ALL first clinical data H2 2025 SLE: Phase 1 CARLYSLE trial presentation at medical conference H2 2025 LN: Expect to dose first patient in Phase 2 trial By year-end 2025 MS: Expect to dose first patient in Phase 1 trial in progressive MS By year-end 2025 ALA: Expect to dose first patient in Phase 1 trial in AL amyloidosis By year-end 2025 ALL: adult lymphoblastic leukemia SLE: systemic lupus erythematosus LN: lupus nephritis MS: multiple sclerosis ALA: light-chain amyloidosis Financial Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2025 Product revenue, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $9.0 million. Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled $18.0 million. This amount includes the cost of all commercial product delivered to the authorized treatment centers, including product delivered but not yet recorded as product revenue which is captured as deferred revenue. Additionally, cost of sales includes any cancelled orders in the period, patient access program product, and 3rd party royalties for certain technology licenses. Research and development expenses decreased from $30.7 million to $26.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This change was primarily due to commercial manufacturing related employee and infrastructure cost shifting to cost of sales and inventory, partially offset by an increase in obe-cel clinical trial and supply costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $18.2 million to $29.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to salaries and other employment-related costs, driven by increased headcount supporting U.S. commercialization activities. Loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $65.2 million, as compared to $38.8 million for the same period in 2024. Net loss was $70.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $52.7 million for the same period in 2024. Basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share for the three months ended March 31, 2025, totaled $(0.26), compared to basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share of $(0.24) for the same period in 2024. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at March 31, 2025, totaled $516.6 million, as compared to $588.0 million at December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by net cash used in operating and investing activities and impacted by a delayed cash receipt of approximately $20 million in R&D tax credit expected from the UK HMRC. Autolus estimates that, with its current cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, the Company is well capitalized to drive the launch and commercialization of obe-cel in r/r B-ALL and to obtain data in the LN pivotal trial and MS Phase 1 trial.

Continue to monitor patients for CRS for at least 4 weeks following each infusion with AUCATZYL. Counsel patients to seek immediate medical attention should signs or symptoms of CRS occur at any time. At the first sign of CRS, immediately evaluate the patient for hospitalization and institute treatment with supportive care based on severity and consider further management per current practice guidelines. Neurologic Toxicities Neurologic toxicities including Immune Effector Cell-associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS), which were fatal or life-threatening, occurred following treatment with AUCATZYL. Neurologic toxicities were reported in 64% (64/100) of patients, including Grade ≥ 3 in 12% of patients. The median time to onset of neurologic toxicities was 10 days (range: 1 to 246 days) with a median duration of 13 days (range: 1 to 904 days). Among patients with neurologic toxicities, the most common symptoms (> 5%) included ICANS (38%), headache (34%), encephalopathy (33%), dizziness (22%), tremor (13%), anxiety (9%), insomnia (9%), and delirium (8%). Immune Effector Cell-associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS) ICANS events occurred in 24% (24/100) of patients, including Grade ≥ 3 in 7% (7/100) of patients. Of the 24 patients who experienced ICANS, 33% (8/24) experienced an onset after the first infusion, but prior to the second infusion of AUCATZYL. The median time to onset for ICANS events after the first infusion was 8 days (range: 1 to 10 days) and 6.5 days (range: 2 to 22 days) after the second infusion, with a median duration of 8.5 days (range: 1 to 53 days). Eighty-eight percent (21/24) of patients received treatment for ICANS. All treated patients received high-dose corticosteroids and 42% (10/24) of patients received anti-epileptics prophylactically. Prior to administering AUCATZYL, ensure that healthcare providers have immediate access to medications and resuscitative equipment to manage ICANS. Counsel patients to seek medical attention should signs or symptoms of neurologic toxicity/ ICANS occur. At the first sign of Neurologic Toxicity /ICANS, immediately evaluate patients for hospitalization and institute treatment with supportive care based on severity and consider further management per current practice guidelines . Effect on Ability to Drive and Use Machines Due to the potential for neurologic events, including altered mental status or seizures, patients receiving AUCATZYL are at risk for altered or decreased consciousness or coordination in the eight weeks following AUCATZYL infusion or until resolution of the neurological event by the treating physician. Advise patients to refrain from driving and engaging in hazardous occupations or activities, such as operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery, during this initial period. Prolonged Cytopenias Patients may exhibit cytopenias including anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia for several weeks after treatment with lymphodepleting chemotherapy and AUCATZYL. In patients who were responders to AUCATZYL, Grade ≥ 3 cytopenias that persisted beyond Day 30 following AUCATZYL infusion were observed in 71% (29/41) of patients and included neutropenia (66%, 27/41) and thrombocytopenia (54%, 22/41). Grade 3 or higher cytopenias that persisted beyond Day 60 following AUCATZYL infusion was observed in 27% (11/41) of patients and included neutropenia (17%, 7/41) and thrombocytopenia (15%, 6/41). Monitor blood counts after AUCATZYL infusion. Infections Severe, including life-threatening and fatal infections occurred in patients after AUCATZYL infusion.

AUCATZYL should not be administered to patients with clinically significant active systemic infections. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection before and after AUCATZYL infusion and treat appropriately . Administer prophylactic antimicrobials according to local guidelines. Grade 3 or higher febrile neutropenia was observed in 26% (26/100) of patients after AUCATZYL infusion and may be concurrent with CRS. In the event of febrile neutropenia, evaluate for infection and manage with broad-spectrum antibiotics, fluids, and other supportive care as medically indicated. Viral reactivation, potentially severe or life-threatening, can occur in patients treated with drugs directed against B cells. There is no experience with manufacturing AUCATZYL for patients with a positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or with active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or active hepatitis C virus (HCV). Perform screening for HBV, HCV and HIV in accordance with clinical guidelines before collection of cells for manufacturing. Hypogammaglobulinemia Hypogammaglobulinemia and B-cell aplasia can occur in patients after AUCATZYL infusion. Hypogammaglobulinemia was reported in 10% (10/100) of patients treated with AUCATZYL including Grade 3 events in 2 patients (2%). Immunoglobulin levels should be monitored after treatment with AUCATZYL and managed per institutional guidelines including infection precautions, antibiotic or antiviral prophylaxis, and immunoglobulin replacement. The safety of immunization with live viral vaccines during or following treatment with AUCATZYL has not been studied. Vaccination with live viral vaccines is not recommended for at least 6 weeks prior to the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy treatment, during AUCATZYL treatment, and until immune recovery following treatment with AUCATZYL. Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis/Macrophage Activation Syndrome (HLH/MAS) HLH/MAS including fatal and life-threatening reactions occurred after treatment with AUCATZYL. HLH/MAS was reported in 2% (2/100) of patients and included Grade 3 and Grade 4 events with a time of onset at Day 22 and Day 41, respectively. One patient experienced a concurrent ICANS events after AUCATZYL infusion and died due to sepsis with ongoing HLH/MAS that had not resolved. Administer treatment for HLH/MAS according to institutional standards. Hypersensitivity Reactions Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may occur due to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an excipient used in AUCATZYL. Observe patients for hypersensitivity reactions during and after AUCATZYL infusion. Secondary Malignancies Patients treated with AUCATZYL may develop secondary malignancies. T cell malignancies have occurred following treatment of hematologic malignancies with BCMA- and CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapies. Mature T cell malignancies, including CAR-positive tumors, may present as soon as weeks following infusion, and may include fatal outcomes. Monitor lifelong for secondary malignancies. In the event that a secondary malignancy occurs, contact Autolus at 1-855-288-5227 for reporting and to obtain instructions on the collection of patient samples for testing. Adverse Reactions The safety of AUCATZYL was evaluated in the FELIX study in which 100 patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) received AUCATZYL at a median dose of 410 × 106 CD19 CAR-positive viable T cells (range: 10 to 480 × 106 CD19 CAR-positive viable T cells with 90% of patients receiving the recommended dose of 410 × 106 +/- 25%). The most common serious adverse reactions of any Grade (incidence ≥ 2%) included infections-pathogen unspecified, febrile neutropenia, ICANS, CRS, fever, bacterial infectious disorders, encephalopathy, fungal infections, hemorrhage, respiratory failure, hypotension, ascites, HLH/MAS, thrombosis and hypoxia. Nine patients (9%) experienced fatal adverse reactions which included infections (sepsis, pneumonia, peritonitis), ascites, pulmonary embolism, acute respiratory distress syndrome, HLH/MAS and ICANS. Of the 9 patients, five patients who died from infections had pre-existing and ongoing neutropenia prior to receiving bridging therapy, lymphodepletion chemotherapy treatment and/or AUCATZYL.

By GlobeNewswire Published on April 24, 2025, 01:05 IST Company outlined potential for value creation driven by obe-cel across multiple B cell driven malignancies and autoimmune diseases, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), lupus nephritis (LN) and multiple sclerosis (MS) Preliminary data in initial six patient cohort treated in Phase 1 trial in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) support progressing obe-cel into a planned Phase 2 pivotal study in lupus nephritis; first patient expected to be dosed in Phase 2 trial by year-end 2025 Company plans to advance obe-cel in progressive forms of multiple sclerosis (MS); first patient expected to be dosed in Phase 1 trial by year-end 2025 LONDON, April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Autolus Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: AUTL), an early commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company developing, manufacturing and delivering next-generation programmed T cell therapies, today presented updates on its development pipeline and plans for expansion in autoimmune diseases at an R&D investor event. The Company presented development plans to expand the obe-cel opportunity into autoimmune disease, including a potential registrational path for obe-cel in LN. They were joined by key opinion leaders David Isenberg, MD, FRCP, FAMS, Emeritus Professor of the University College of London (UCL) Centre for Ageing, Rheumatology and Regenerative Medicine, and Mark Freedman, HBSc, MSc, MD, CSPQ, FAAN, FRCPC, Professor of Medicine (Neurology) at the University of Ottawa and Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Research Unit. Drs. Isenberg and Freedman shared insights on the current clinical landscape, B cell depletion approaches and the significant unmet medical need in LN and MS. 'We believe that obe-cel could be a 'pipeline in a product' with the potential to deliver improved outcomes for patients and significant value creating opportunities for Autolus. We are building on obe-cel's recent approval in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory B cell precursor ALL,' said Dr. Christian Itin, Chief Executive Officer of Autolus. 'We have extensive clinical trial experience over several years, and data consistently show that obe-cel delivers a deep reset in the B cell compartment.1,2,3,4 Supported by our proprietary manufacturing, supply chain and commercial infrastructure, we have a strong foundation and are well-positioned to unlock the full value of this asset.' 'Lupus patients who have failed treatment with B cell targeting agents and calcineurin inhibitors require new therapeutic options,' said David Isenberg, MD, FRCP, FAMS, Emeritus Professor of Rheumatology at University College London. 'Although a limited dataset, the CARLYSLE trial has shown encouraging clinical data in this advanced and relapsed patient population with lupus nephritis. Further evaluation to confirm these promising findings, including the favorable safety profile, are urgently warranted.' R&D Event Updates Phase 1 data support plans to move into pivotal Phase 2 trial in SLE Preliminary data in six patients from the Phase 1 dose confirmation clinical trial (CARLYSLE) in refractory systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients support progressing into a planned Phase 2 pivotal study. Three patients had complete renal response, all by month three. Complement normalized in all patients by month one. Rash, alopecia and mucosal ulcers resolved by month three and arthritis resolved by month one in all patients. Data show high peak expansion and deep B cell aplasia consistent with known obe-cel characteristics in oncology indications. No dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) or immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) were observed in the study to date. Grade one cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was observed in three out of six patients. Transient hypertension, including grade three, occurred in five out of six patients, in one case with transient worsening of kidney function. Three patients had pre-existing hypertension at baseline. The Company has aligned with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the Phase 2 trial design and potential registrational path to approval and anticipates dosing the first patient in a Phase 2 trial before the end of the year. Full data with longer term follow-up from the Phase 1 CARLYSLE clinical trial is targeted for presentation at a medical conference in the second half of 2025. Expanding the obe-cel opportunity in autoimmune; Phase 1 trial in progressive MS Autolus plans to advance obe-cel into clinical development in progressive MS. The Company expects to dose its first patient in a Phase 1 dose escalation study by year-end 2025. Early-stage pipeline programs and collaborations support longer-term growth Autolus' translational programs with UCL continue to fuel its early-stage pipeline, providing a cost-efficient path to development.

T cell malignancies have occurred following treatment of hematologic malignancies with BCMA- and CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapies . WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) occurred following treatment with AUCATZYL. CRS was reported in 75% (75/100) of patients including Grade 3 CRS in 3% of patients. The median time to onset of CRS was 8 days following the first infusion (range: 1 to 23 days) with a median duration of 5 days (range: 1 to 21 days). The most common manifestations of CRS included fever (100%), hypotension (35%), and hypoxia (19%) . Prior to administering AUCATZYL, ensure that healthcare providers have immediate access to medications and resuscitative equipment to manage CRS. During and following treatment with AUCATZYL, closely monitor patients for signs and symptoms of CRS daily for at least 14 days at the healthcare facility following the first infusion. Continue to monitor patients for CRS for at least 4 weeks following each infusion with AUCATZYL. Counsel patients to seek immediate medical attention should signs or symptoms of CRS occur at any time. At the first sign of CRS, immediately evaluate the patient for hospitalization and institute treatment with supportive care based on severity and consider further management per current practice guidelines. Neurologic Toxicities Neurologic toxicities including Immune Effector Cell-associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS), which were fatal or life-threatening, occurred following treatment with AUCATZYL. Neurologic toxicities were reported in 64% (64/100) of patients, including Grade ≥ 3 in 12% of patients. The median time to onset of neurologic toxicities was 10 days (range: 1 to 246 days) with a median duration of 13 days (range: 1 to 904 days). Among patients with neurologic toxicities, the most common symptoms (> 5%) included ICANS (38%), headache (34%), encephalopathy (33%), dizziness (22%), tremor (13%), anxiety (9%), insomnia (9%), and delirium (8%). Immune Effector Cell-associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS)ICANS events occurred in 24% (24/100) of patients, including Grade ≥ 3 in 7% (7/100) of patients. Of the 24 patients who experienced ICANS, 33% (8/24) experienced an onset after the first infusion, but prior to the second infusion of AUCATZYL. The median time to onset for ICANS events after the first infusion was 8 days (range: 1 to 10 days) and 6.5 days (range: 2 to 22 days) after the second infusion, with a median duration of 8.5 days (range: 1 to 53 days). Eighty-eight percent (21/24) of patients received treatment for ICANS. All treated patients received high-dose corticosteroids and 42% (10/24) of patients received anti-epileptics prophylactically. Prior to administering AUCATZYL, ensure that healthcare providers have immediate access to medications and resuscitative equipment to manage ICANS. Counsel patients to seek medical attention should signs or symptoms of neurologic toxicity/ ICANS occur. At the first sign of Neurologic Toxicity /ICANS, immediately evaluate patients for hospitalization and institute treatment with supportive care based on severity and consider further management per current practice guidelines . Effect on Ability to Drive and Use Machines Due to the potential for neurologic events, including altered mental status or seizures, patients receiving AUCATZYL are at risk for altered or decreased consciousness or coordination in the eight weeks following AUCATZYL infusion or until resolution of the neurological event by the treating physician. Advise patients to refrain from driving and engaging in hazardous occupations or activities, such as operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery, during this initial period. Prolonged Cytopenias Patients may exhibit cytopenias including anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia for several weeks after treatment with lymphodepleting chemotherapy and AUCATZYL. In patients who were responders to AUCATZYL, Grade ≥ 3 cytopenias that persisted beyond Day 30 following AUCATZYL infusion were observed in 71% (29/41) of patients and included neutropenia (66%, 27/41) and thrombocytopenia (54%, 22/41). Grade 3 or higher cytopenias that persisted beyond Day 60 following AUCATZYL infusion was observed in 27% (11/41) of patients and included neutropenia (17%, 7/41) and thrombocytopenia (15%, 6/41). Monitor blood counts after AUCATZYL infusion. Infections Severe, including life-threatening and fatal infections occurred in patients after AUCATZYL infusion. Non-COVID-19 infections of all grades occurred in 67% (67/100) of patients. Grade 3 or higher non-COVID-19 infections occurred in 41% (41/100) of patients. AUCATZYL should not be administered to patients with clinically significant active systemic infections. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection before and after AUCATZYL infusion and treat appropriately . Administer prophylactic antimicrobials according to local guidelines. Grade 3 or higher febrile neutropenia was observed in 26% (26/100) of patients after AUCATZYL infusion and may be concurrent with CRS. In the event of febrile neutropenia, evaluate for infection and manage with broad-spectrum antibiotics, fluids, and other supportive care as medically indicated. Viral reactivation, potentially severe or life-threatening, can occur in patients treated with drugs directed against B cells. There is no experience with manufacturing AUCATZYL for patients with a positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or with active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or active hepatitis C virus (HCV). Perform screening for HBV, HCV and HIV in accordance with clinical guidelines before collection of cells for manufacturing. Hypogammaglobulinemia Hypogammaglobulinemia and B cell aplasia can occur in patients after AUCATZYL infusion. Hypogammaglobulinemia was reported in 10% (10/100) of patients treated with AUCATZYL including Grade 3 events in 2 patients (2%). Immunoglobulin levels should be monitored after treatment with AUCATZYL and managed per institutional guidelines including infection precautions, antibiotic or antiviral prophylaxis, and immunoglobulin replacement. The safety of immunization with live viral vaccines during or following treatment with AUCATZYL has not been studied. Vaccination with live viral vaccines is not recommended for at least 6 weeks prior to the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy treatment, during AUCATZYL treatment, and until immune recovery following treatment with AUCATZYL. Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis/Macrophage Activation Syndrome (HLH/MAS) HLH/MAS including fatal and life-threatening reactions occurred after treatment with AUCATZYL. HLH/MAS was reported in 2% (2/100) of patients and included Grade 3 and Grade 4 events with a time of onset at Day 22 and Day 41, respectively. One patient experienced a concurrent ICANS events after AUCATZYL infusion and died due to sepsis with ongoing HLH/MAS that had not resolved. Administer treatment for HLH/MAS according to institutional standards. Hypersensitivity Reactions Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may occur due to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an excipient used in AUCATZYL. Observe patients for hypersensitivity reactions during and after AUCATZYL infusion. Secondary Malignancies Patients treated with AUCATZYL may develop secondary malignancies. T cell malignancies have occurred following treatment of hematologic malignancies with BCMA- and CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapies. Mature T cell malignancies, including CAR-positive tumors, may present as soon as weeks following infusion, and may include fatal outcomes. Monitor lifelong for secondary malignancies. In the event that a secondary malignancy occurs, contact Autolus at 1-855-288-5227 for reporting and to obtain instructions on the collection of patient samples for testing. Adverse Reactions The safety of AUCATZYL was evaluated in the FELIX study in which 100 patients with relapsed or refractory B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) received AUCATZYL at a median dose of 410 × 106 CD19 CAR-positive viable T cells (range: 10 to 480 × 106 CD19 CAR-positive viable T cells with 90% of patients receiving the recommended dose of 410 × 106 +/- 25%). The most common serious adverse reactions of any Grade (incidence ≥ 2%) included infections-pathogen unspecified, febrile neutropenia, ICANS, CRS, fever, bacterial infectious disorders, encephalopathy, fungal infections, hemorrhage, respiratory failure, hypotension, ascites, HLH/MAS, thrombosis and hypoxia. Nine patients (9%) experienced fatal adverse reactions which included infections (sepsis, pneumonia, peritonitis), ascites, pulmonary embolism, acute respiratory distress syndrome, HLH/MAS and ICANS. Of the 9 patients, five patients who died from infections had pre-existing and ongoing neutropenia prior to receiving bridging therapy, lymphodepletion chemotherapy treatment and/or AUCATZYL.
