NEW YORK, May 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — IN8bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: INAB), a leading clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on innovative gamma-delta T cell therapies, today announced financial results and operational highlights for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023. In addition, the Company provided an overview of recent corporate developments through May 2023.
“We made significant progress in advancing our gamma-delta T-cell programs in the first quarter of 2023,” said William Ho, CEO and co-founder of IN8bio. “Recently we announced positive clinical data from our Phase 1 trial of INB-100, which demonstrated long-term complete remissions and corresponding biomarker data demonstrating elevated gamma-delta T cell levels in all patients. For the first time, we have demonstrated persistence and in vivo expansion with an allogeneic donor derived cell therapy product. We will continue the ongoing expansion of this study, with updated data expected at a major medical meeting later this year.”
Mr. Ho continued, “In addition, we are honored to have been selected as one of only a handful of oral abstract presentations for a Phase 1 clinical trial at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2023 Annual Meeting. Our team is committed to advancing the potent tumor-targeting capabilities of our gamma-delta T cell platform, with the aim of improving outcomes for patients in need of new and innovative treatment options. We continue to explore the potential of gamma-delta T cells to treat multiple cancer types, as evidenced by our recent preclinical progress in solid tumors and in AML. The IN8bio team is excited about our unique next generation technologies and look forward to providing additional updates on our progress in the coming months.”

About IN8bio
IN8bio is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of gamma-delta T cell product candidates for solid and liquid tumors.
