(Nasdaq: LSTA) (\u201cLisata\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing innovative therapies for the treatment of advanced solid tumors and other serious diseases, today announced that the Company has entered into a research license with Catalent, Inc. (\u201cCatalent\u201d) to evaluate, in a preclinical setting, the efficacy of Lisata&#8217;s iRGD cyclic peptide product candidate, certepetide, as a payload used in the context of Catalent\u2019s SMARTag<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> antibody-drug conjugate (\u201cADC\u201d) dual-payload technology platform for the treatment of difficult-to-treat-diseases, including advanced solid tumors.\u00a0\u00a0 Under the terms of the agreement, Catalent will assume full responsibility for all research and development expenses and Lisata will provide consulting support. Further, Lisata will receive an upfront payment with the possibility of future considerations contingent upon the results of the preclinical evaluation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is another obvious step in the development of Lisata and certepetide as we see great potential in combining both the technologies and the talents of the scientific teams at Lisata and Catalent to study the combination of certepetide and the SMARTag<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> ADC platform. While ADCs utilize monoclonal antibodies to target tumor-specific antigens ensuring precise delivery of cytotoxic drugs to cancer cells while sparing healthy tissues, combining ADC\u2019s with certepetide should ensure that the targeted payload penetrates the tumor. The combination of ADCs and certepetide could revolutionize precision oncology delivering targeted therapies deep within tumors for improved efficacy with reduced systemic toxicity. Additionally, the presence of certepetide in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is expected to reduce the immunosuppressive nature of the TME further improving patient response and outcomes to the ADC therapy.\u201d stated Kristen K. Buck, M.D., Executive Vice President of Research and Development and Chief Medical Officer of Lisata. \u201cThis agreement furthers our strategy of exploiting certepetide\u2019s broad applicability and unlocking its full potential. We look forward to seeing results in the near future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to partner with Lisata to investigate how certepetide and the SMARTag<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> technology might be used together to make ADCs with enhanced functions,\u201d stated Penelope Drake, Head of R&amp;D, Bioconjugates at Catalent. \u201cWe are enthusiastic about the potential of this collaboration to deliver innovative treatment options.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Lisata Therapeutics<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Lisata Therapeutics is a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=CSiszK_EKK3K-27lcaEygIe2qzs5EVN4oPMt8lA1llxRwaF8BwFx77PZQp12qIF3-Z7_Ru7P6Mdgk57a5EqwLa3bVsycWStIf3pCPjz89SkKyLyErUxBeNWQNiCaBkcnDnAoVMLPHtoci_EOitN4tDoQt8K2LFZtyrsvDjrX97E=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><u>clinical-stage pharmaceutical company<\/u><\/a>\u00a0dedicated to the discovery, development and commercialization of innovative therapies for the treatment of advanced solid tumors and other major diseases.

Certepetide actuates this active transport system in a tumor-specific manner, resulting in systemically co-administered\u00a0anti-cancer drugs more efficiently penetrating and accumulating in the tumor. Certepetide also has been shown to modify the tumor microenvironment resulting in tumors which are more susceptible to immunotherapies. We and our collaborators have amassed significant non-clinical data demonstrating enhanced delivery of a range of emerging anti-cancer therapies, including immunotherapies and RNA-based therapeutics. To date, certepetide has also demonstrated favorable safety, tolerability, and clinical activity in completed and ongoing clinical trials designed to test its ability to enhance the effectiveness of standard-of-care chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer. Lisata is exploring the potential of certepetide to enable a variety of treatment modalities to treat a range of solid tumors more effectively. Certepetide has been awarded Fast Track designation (U.S.) and Orphan Drug Designation for pancreatic cancer (U.S. and E.U.) as well as Orphan Drug Designation for glioma (U.S.) and osteosarcoma (U.S.). Additionally, certepetide has received Rare Pediatric Disease Designation for osteosarcoma (U.S.).<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Forward-Looking Statements<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>This communication contains \u201cforward-looking statements\u201d that involve substantial risks and uncertainties for purposes of the safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
