Alaunos Therapeutics Inc. (TCRT+30.09%) has submitted its 10-K filing for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
The filing reports a strategic shift in the company's focus towards its internally developed small molecule oral obesity program. The program aims to develop a drug for obesity with a differentiated profile compared to current market offerings.
The company has ceased further development of its TCR-T clinical programs due to substantial costs and current financing conditions. The TCR-T Library Phase 1/2 Trial had shown promising data but was wound down as part of a strategic reprioritization.
The company reported a net loss of $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, with an accumulated deficit of $920.4 million since inception. Revenue for the year was $10,000, primarily from royalty revenues.
Research and development expenses decreased significantly to $362,000 from $16.3 million in the previous year, reflecting the wind down of clinical activities and reduced headcount.
General and administrative expenses also decreased to $4.5 million from $12.2 million, primarily due to lower consulting and employee-related expenses.
Alaunos continues to explore strategic alternatives, including potential mergers, acquisitions, or partnerships, to maximize shareholder value.
The company has expressed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern beyond the second quarter of 2025 without additional financing or strategic transactions.
The filing also details the termination of several research and development agreements and licenses, including those with the National Cancer Institute and Precigen, as the company shifts focus.
The company has implemented a cybersecurity program to safeguard its operations and data, with oversight from the board of directors.
Alaunos' stock remains listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol 'TCRT', following compliance with the minimum bid price requirement after a reverse stock split.
