Immix Biopharma — A quarter of progress for both lead assets

Throughout Q323, Immix shared encouraging updates for the clinical development of lead CAR-T asset NXC-201, including the announcement of orphan drug designation (ODD) in both multiple myeloma (MM) and amyloid light chain amyloidosis (ALA). In October 2023, the company shared positive efficacy and safety updates and we believe the data so far could support NXC-201 as the first outpatient CAR-T therapy, subject to regulatory approval, addressing the myriad of challenges associated with current CAR-Ts. In the quarter, Immix also shared positive interim data for its lead TSTx asset, IMX-110, and we anticipate further updates across Q423 to FY24. Net cash at the end of the period stood at $19.6m, which we estimate should provide an operating cash runway into Q424. As we adjust for our expense estimates based on year-to-date results, update net cash and roll our model forward, our valuation for Immix adjusts to $86.6m or $4.0 per share (from $90.7m or $4.2/share previously).

CAR-T program continues to drive newsflow

Key highlights from Q323 were announcements of the FDA granting ODD to NXC-201 for the treatment of MM and ALA. Importantly, a key benefit of ODD is seven years of US market exclusivity (if successful with regulatory approval). According to Evaluate Pharma, these indications have markets projected to be worth c $32bn and c $9bn by 2028, respectively. These potentially represent sizeable market opportunities for Immix, in our view, even if only a modest portion is captured.

Post-period, Immix shared positive updates from the NEXICART-1 trial. In MM, 63 patients have been treated to date, and for the 50 patients at the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D), the overall response rate (ORR) was 90% and complete or stringent complete responses (CR or sCR) were observed in 58% of patients. In ALA, for the nine patients treated at the RP2D, the ORR was 100% and the CR rate was 67%, demonstrating encouraging efficacy, in our view. Immix also recently announced that it had completed its third NXC-201 engineering batch at its US manufacturing site, demonstrating its CAR-T therapy manufacturing capabilities in this region and marking a positive step toward the company’s plans to expand the ongoing trial to the US. NEXICART-1 is operating in Israel and we are waiting additional updates from management on the launch of US trial sites.

Valuation: $86.6m or $4.0 per share

Our valuation for Immix adjusts to $86.6m or $4.0 per share (vs $90.7m or $4.2 per share previously), as the overall impact of our revised expense estimates and updated net cash balance more than offset the model roll-forward effect. Given our operating cash burn estimates, we continue estimate to a cash runway into Q424.

Immix’s pipeline progressing on all fronts

Immix remains focused on the clinical development of novel CAR-T therapies and Tissue Specific Therapeutics (TSTx) and the company has an active pipeline in both of these areas (Exhibit 1). The Phase Ib/IIa NEXICART-1 trial is assessing NXC-201, a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) targeting CAR-T therapy, for the treatment of MM and ALA; 72 patients have been enrolled to date. As a reminder, clinical development of NXC-201 is being independently financed by Immix’s subsidiary, Nexcella (of which Immix owns 94%).The Phase Ib/IIa IMMINENT-01 trial is assessing IMX-110 in combination with tislelizumab for the treatment of solid tumors (expected n=30). We anticipate clinical trial updates from both studies throughout Q423–FY24.

More to come with rolling CAR-T data

In the latest update for NEXICART-1, Immix reported data for a total of 63 MM patients. We note that this figure includes participants from the dose escalation portion of the trial: 150m cells (n=6), 450 cells (n=7) and the RP2D of 800m cells (n=50). As of the data cut-off point of 17 July 2023, the median follow-up duration was 11.9 months. It was found that of the patients at the RP2D without prior BCMA-targeted therapy (n=38), the ORR was 95%, associated with a median progression-free survival of 12.9 months. Of the patients at the RP2D with or without prior BCMA-targeted therapy (n=50), the ORR was 90%, with a CR or sCR rate of 58%. Of the MM patients treated to date, NXC-201 has shown notably low neurotoxicity rate of 4%.

For ALA, data have been reported for nine patients at the RP2D. At the cut-off point of 20 September 2023, the median follow-up duration was 7.3 months. For this patient population, the ORR was 100%, the CR rate was 67% and the organ response rate was 56%. There have been zero cases of neurotoxicity in ALA patients reported as part of this clinical trial.

In our view, the data reported so far represent an encouraging profile for NXC-201, both in terms of efficacy and safety. We note that currently approved CAR-T therapies are associated with safety concerns (neurotoxicity and cytokine release syndrome), limited accessibility (c 5% of US hospitals able to administer this type of treatment) and long hospital stays (c 14 days on average). As such, with Immix’s differentiated CAR-T therapy asset, we believe the company is well-positioned to address this unmet medical need and that this could translate into a potentially sizeable commercial opportunity, provided the company is successful with regulatory approval (further details can be found in our update note). We expect rolling updates for NXC-201 as the data become available. Management has stated that it plans to submit a Biologics License Application to the FDA for MM once 100 patients have been treated, and for ALA once 40 patients have been treated.

TSTx updates anticipated in Q423 and FY24

The latest update in TSTx was the interim data from IMMINENT-01 announced in July 2023. This clinical trial is a single-arm, dose-escalation (3+3) study designed to investigate the safety and tolerability of IMX-110 in combination with tislelizumab (expected n=30) in patients with relapsed/refractory solid tumors; the results will determine the maximum tolerated dose and the RP2D. At the data cut-off point of 7 July 2023, among the four metastatic colorectal cancer patients treated thus far, three (75%) have had tumor shrinkage. No severe adverse events have been reported to date. We highlight that all patients had stage IV relapsed/refractory metastatic colorectal cancer and had received a median eight lines of prior therapy. While we recognize that the data to date come from a small patient population, we view the early signs of efficacy and safety favorably. The trial is now enrolling the subsequent dose cohort of patients with solid tumors (including some with colorectal cancer) and we anticipate a steady flow of data readouts across Q423–FY24.

Financials

As clinical activity continues to make steady progress, Immix’s operating performance in Q323 broadly mirrored the previous quarter, with cash outflow from operating activities reported at $3.1m versus $3.5m in Q223 (albeit materially higher than the $1.5m recorded in Q322). R&D-related expenses, which were primarily made up of clinical trial costs, came in at $2.1m, three times the figure reported in the comparable period ($0.7m in Q322). This increase is attributed to clinical costs associated with its ongoing clinical trials (NEXICART-1 clinical trial for CAR-T therapy NXC-201 and Phase Ib/IIa clinical trials for IMX-110). Note that clinical development of NXC-201 is being independently financed by Immix’s subsidiary, Nexcella (of which Immix owns 94%) and Nexcella’s operating expenses (including R&D costs) are consolidated within Immix’s reported financials. G&A expenses were also materially higher at $2.4m ($0.8m in Q322 and $1.5m in Q223) primarily due to costs related to professional services ($0.8m), stock-based compensation ($0.5m) and investor relations expenses ($0.4m). The Q323 net loss was $4.3m, up from $1.6m in Q322 and $3.6m in Q223.

Based on the nine-month operating performance and run rate, and expecting Immix to maintain a similar pace of clinical activity, we make certain adjustments to our FY23 and FY24 operating expense estimates. Our R&D expenses have been increased revised up to $7.4m and $10.1m in FY23 and FY24, respectively as compared to $6.9m and $9.8m in prior periods. Similarly, our G&A expense forecasts were increased to $6.9m ($5.7m previously) in FY23 and $7.7m ($6.4m previously) in FY24. These changes, coupled with some minor adjustments based on year-to-date results, translate into higher operating losses of $14.4m and $17.8m (versus $12.7m and $16.2m previously) in FY23 and FY24.

Valuation

Our valuation for Immix adjusts to $86.6m or $4.0 per share ($90.7m or $4.2 per share previously) as the aforementioned changes in our expense forecasts and updated net cash balance ($19.6m vs proforma net cash of $22.2m including August fund raise in our October note) more than offset the benefit from rolling forward our model by three months. Note that our per-share valuation assumes full conversion of the 1.9m prefunded warrants issued in August 2023 (as of the Q323 earnings release date, none of the prefunded warrants had been exercised). Based on our cash burn projections for FY23 and FY24, we continue to estimate operating cash runway for the company into Q424.

We continue to assume that Immix will need to raise a further $10m before end-FY24 before the projected global licensing deal in FY25. This $10m fund requirement has been accounted for as illustrative debt in our model. Alternatively, if the funding is instead realized through an equity issue (assumed at the current trading price of $4.25/share), Immix would have to issue 2.4m shares, which will have very minor impact on our per-share valuation so that it remains unchanged at $4.0 (the number of shares outstanding would increase from 21.8m to 24.1m).
