Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 12, 2021, Magenta Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain purchasers (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”).

The closing of the Private Placement is anticipated to occur on May 14, 2021 (the “Closing”), subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company agreed to issue and sell approximately 9,600,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $9.00 per share (the “Shares”) for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $86.4 million, before deducting estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Purchase Agreement provides that the Company will file a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by June 28, 2021 to register the resale of the Shares.

The foregoing summaries of the Private Placement, the Shares and the Purchase Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

To the extent required by Item 3.02 of Form 8-K, the information regarding the Shares set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02. The Company will issue the Shares in reliance on the exemption from registration provided for under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company relied on this exemption from registration for private placements based in part on the representations made by the Purchasers, including the representations with respect to each Purchaser’s investment intent. The offer and sale of the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act.

eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act or requires any Purchaser to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall (in consultation with legal counsel to Deep Track Capital, L.P.) use its reasonable best efforts to persuade the Commission that the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Purchasers is an “underwriter.” In the event that, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 4.4, the Staff refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (i) remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Shares (the “Cut Back Shares”) and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Shares as the Staff may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”); provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Purchaser as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Purchaser. Any cutback imposed on the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be allocated among the Purchasers on a pro rata basis, unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require or provide or the Purchasers holding a majority of the Registrable Shares otherwise agree. No liquidated damages shall accrue as to any Cut Back Shares until such date as the Company is able to effect the registration of such Cut Back Shares in accordance with any SEC Restrictions (such date, the “Restriction Termination Date” of such Cut Back Shares). From and after the Restriction Termination Date applicable to any Cut Back Shares, all of the provisions of this Section 4 shall again be applicable to such Cut Back Shares; provided, however, that (x) the Filing Deadline for the Registration Statement including such Cut Back Shares shall be ten (10) Trading Days after such Restriction Termination Date, and (y) the Effectiveness Deadline with respect to such Cut Back Shares shall be the 90th day immediately after the Restriction Termination Date or the 120th day if the Staff reviews such Registration Statement (but in any event no later than three Trading Days from the Staff indicating it has no further comments on such Registration Statement).

4.5    Indemnification.

(a)    The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and its affiliates, partners, members, officers, directors, agents and representatives, and each person, if any, who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, a “Purchaser Party” and collectively the “Purchaser Parties”), from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) to which they may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any material breach of this Agreement by the Company or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Resale Registration Statement or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or arise out of any material failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Resale Registration Statement and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse the Purchaser Parties for any legal or other documented expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Purchaser in any such case to the extent that such Loss arises out of, or is based upon: (i) an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in such Resale Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser

 

20


specifically for use in preparation of the Resale Registration Statement; or (ii) any material breach of this Agreement by such Purchaser; provided furtherhowever, that the Company shall not be liable to any Purchaser Party to the extent that any such Loss is caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if either (i) (A) such Purchaser failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus with or prior to, or such Purchaser failed to confirm that a final prospectus was deemed to be delivered prior to (in accordance with Rule 172 of the Securities Act), the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by such Purchaser to the person asserting the claim from which such Loss resulted and (B) the final prospectus corrected such untrue statement or omission, (ii) (X) such untrue statement or omission is corrected in an amendment or supplement to the prospectus and (Y) having previously been furnished by or on behalf of the Company with copies of the prospectus as so amended or supplemented or notified by the Company that such amended or supplemented prospectus has been filed with the Commission, in accordance with Rule 172 of the Securities Act, such Purchaser thereafter fails to deliver such prospectus as so amended or supplemented, with or prior to or a Purchaser fails to confirm that the prospectus as so amended or supplemented was deemed to be delivered prior to (in accordance with Rule 172 of the Securities Act), the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by such Purchaser to the person asserting the claim from which such Loss resulted or (iii) such Purchaser sold Registrable Shares in violation of such Purchasers’ covenants contained in Section 3.2 of this Agreement.

(b)    Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, affiliates, agents and representatives and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each a “Company Party” and collectively the “Company Parties”), from and against any Losses to which the Company Parties may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any material breach of this Agreement by such Purchaser or untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Resale Registration Statement (or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in each case, on the effective date thereof), if, and only to the extent, such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Purchaser specifically for use in preparation of the Resale Registration Statement, and each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, will reimburse each Company Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 4.5(b) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Purchaser upon its sale of the Registrable Shares included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c)    Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 4.5, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and such indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, such indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with

 

21


counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, further, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expense of more than one separate counsel for all indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall not settle an action without the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d)    If after proper notice of a claim or the commencement of any action against the indemnified party, the indemnifying party does not choose to participate, then the indemnified party shall assume the defense thereof and upon written notice by the indemnified party requesting advance payment of a stated amount for its reasonable defense costs and expenses, the indemnifying party shall advance payment for such reasonable defense costs and expenses (the “Advance Indemnification Payment”) to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnified party’s actual defense costs and expenses exceed the amount of the Advance Indemnification Payment, then upon written request by the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for such difference; in the event that the Advance Indemnification Payment exceeds the indemnified party’s actual costs and expenses, the indemnified party shall promptly remit payment of such difference to the indemnifying party.

(e)    If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4.5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any Losses, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by an indemnifying party hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such indemnifying party upon the sale of such Registrable Shares.

4.6    Prospectus Suspension. Each Purchaser acknowledges that there may be times when the Company must suspend the use of the prospectus forming a part of the Resale Registration Statement until such time as an amendment to the Resale Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the Commission, or until such time as the Company has filed an appropriate report with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act. Each Purchaser hereby covenants that it will not sell any Registrable Shares pursuant to said prospectus during the period commencing at the time at which the Company gives the Purchasers notice of the suspension of the use of said prospectus and ending at the time the Company gives the Purchasers notice that the Purchasers may thereafter effect sales pursuant to said prospectus; provided, that such suspension periods may only be imposed by the Company for up to two periods of not more than thirty (30) consecutive days in any twelve (12) month period and that, in the good faith judgment of the Company’s board of directors, the Company would, in the absence of such delay or suspension hereunder, be required under state or federal securities laws to disclose any

 

22


corporate development, a potentially significant transaction or event involving the Company, or any negotiations, discussions, or proposals directly relating thereto, in either case the disclosure of which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company or its stockholders.

4.7    Termination of Obligations. The obligations of the Company pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof shall cease and terminate, with respect to any Registrable Shares, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such time such Registrable Shares have been resold, (b) such time as such Registrable Shares no longer remain Registrable Shares pursuant to Section 4.1(b) hereof or (c) two years from the effective date of the Resale Registration Statement.

4.8    Reporting Requirements.

(a)    With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may at any time permit the sale of the Shares to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3, for a period of two years from the Closing Date, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

(i)    make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(ii)    file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

(iii)    so long as a Purchaser owns Registrable Shares, to furnish to such Purchaser upon request (A) a written statement by the Company as to whether it is in compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or whether it is qualified as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Commission Form S-3, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Purchaser to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144.

4.9    Blue Sky. The Company shall obtain and maintain all necessary blue sky law permits and qualifications, or secured exemptions therefrom, required by any state for the offer and sale of Registrable Shares.

 

5.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

5.1    Integration. Except as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares such that the rules of Nasdaq would require shareholder approval of this transaction prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

5.2    Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall: (a) promptly following the execution and delivery hereof, issue a press release disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Press Release”), and (b) by 5:30 p.m. (New York City

 

23


time) on the fourth (4th) Trading Day following the date hereof, file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except as may be reviewed and approved by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, provided, further, however, that the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser or an affiliate of any Purchaser except as otherwise required by applicable law and regulations or as agreed to by the applicable Purchaser.

5.3    Legend.

(a)    Each Purchaser understands that the Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for the Shares):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS.”

(b)    The Company shall, at its sole expense, upon appropriate notice from any Purchaser stating that Registrable Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement, timely prepare and deliver certificates or book-entry shares representing the Shares to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates or book-entry shares shall be free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as such Purchaser may request. Further, the Company shall, at its sole expense, cause its legal counsel or other counsel satisfactory to the transfer agent: (i) while the Registration Statement is effective, to issue to the transfer agent a “blanket” legal opinion to allow (A) the legend on the Shares to be removed, or (B) sales without restriction pursuant to the effective Registration Statement, and (ii) provide all other opinions as may reasonably be required by the transfer agent in connection with the removal of legends. A Purchaser may request that the Company remove, and the Company agrees to authorize the removal of, any legend from such Shares, following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a legended certificate representing such Shares: (i) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (ii) if such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1), or (iii) following the time that the Registration Statement is declared effective. If a legend removal request is made pursuant to the foregoing, the Company will, no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a legended certificate representing such Shares (or a request for legend removal, in the case of Shares issued in book-entry form), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares that is free

 

24


from all restrictive legends or an equivalent book-entry position, as requested by the Purchaser. Certificates for Shares free from all restrictive legends may be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent to the Purchasers by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) as directed by such Purchaser. The Company warrants that the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. If a Purchaser effects a transfer of the Shares in accordance with Section 5.3(b), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Purchaser to effect such transfer. Such Purchaser hereby agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend pursuant to this Section 5.3(b) is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that such Purchaser will sell any such Shares pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

5.4    Non-Public Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents acting on its behalf, will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes constitutes, material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have consented to the receipt of such information and agreed with the Company to keep such information confidential.

5.5    Reservation of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved, and the Company shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company to issue the Shares.

5.6    Nasdaq Listing. The Company shall prepare and file with Nasdaq an additional shares listing application covering all of the Shares.

5.7    Preservation of Rights. Prior to the date the Mandatory Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, the Company shall not (a) grant any registration rights to third parties which are more favorable than or inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder, or (b) enter into any agreement, take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities that violates or subordinates the rights expressly granted to the holders of Registrable Shares in this Agreement.

5.8    Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No Purchaser has received terms in respect of its purchase of the Shares that are more favorable than those of any other Purchaser, other than (i) the reimbursement of legal and due diligence expenses set forth in Section 6.2 hereof, (ii) terms particular to the regulatory requirements of such Purchaser or its affiliates or related funds or (iii) terms concerning the publicity policies of such Purchaser.

 

6.

6.1    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing

No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

Magenta Therapeutics Announces Positive Preliminary Results from Phase 2 Clinical Trial of MGTA-145 in Multiple Myeloma and Provides an Update on its Anticipated Clinical Study with MGTA-117

- Preliminary results showed all patients with multiple myeloma (10/10) treated with MGTA-145 and plerixafor met the primary endpoint for stem cell mobilization and collection, and all transplanted patients (6/6) successfully engrafted as of the data cutoff date –

- MGTA-145 Phase 2 clinical trial preliminary results in patients with multiple myeloma will be presented as a poster at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting and at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress –

- Investigational New Drug (IND) filing for MGTA-117 is on track for June 2021; Magenta expects to start its planned Phase 1/2, first-in-human clinical trial in relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients to collect initial safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data –

Magenta Therapeutics to host a conference call today at 4:30pm EDT –

Cambridge, MA – May 12, 2021 – Magenta Therapeutics (Nasdaq: MGTA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel medicines to bring the curative power of stem cell transplants to more patients, today announced positive preliminary results from its Phase 2 clinical trial of MGTA-145 plus plerixafor in patients with multiple myeloma, which were accepted for presentation at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress, to be held virtually June 9-17, 2021. Magenta also provided initial direction regarding the acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients it expects to evaluate in its planned clinical trial with MGTA-117.

Multiple Myeloma Phase 2 Clinical Trial

The investigator-initiated, 25-patient Phase 2 open-label clinical trial, ongoing at Stanford University School of Medicine, is designed to evaluate the ability of MGTA-145, in combination with plerixafor, to mobilize and collect stem cells for autologous stem cell transplant in patients with multiple myeloma.


Preliminary results:

 

   

All patients (10/10) met the primary endpoint of mobilization and collection of 2 million CD34+ stem cells per kg in up to two days of same-day mobilization and apheresis. Nine of 10 patients achieved the primary endpoint in a single day.

 

   

The median number of stem cells collected in one day was 5.4 million CD34+ stem cells per kg.

 

   

Patients could also be successfully mobilized and apheresed on a second day, if needed, based upon protocol requirements. The median number of stem cells collected on day 1 and 2 (if needed) was 7.1 million CD34+ stem cells per kg in all patients. Current standard of care with G-CSF regimens require a minimum of five days of dosing to initiate stem cell collection.

 

   

All transplanted patients (6/6) successfully engrafted, with median recovery of neutrophils after 12 days and platelets after 17 days, which are within transplant expectations in multiple myeloma.

 

   

The CD34+ stem cells collected were enriched for CD90 expression (31% of CD34 cells were CD34+CD90+), a stem cell population associated with durable engraftment, which is three-fold greater than observed with G-CSF historically.

 

   

The regimen of MGTA-145 and plerixafor was well tolerated. Acute, transient, MGTA-145-related grade 1 bone or musculoskeletal pain was observed in 40% of patients following MGTA-145 infusion.

This study has broad and clinically representative inclusion criteria and is enrolling patients that represent the general transplant eligible population of patients with multiple myeloma, some of whom may have additional risk factors that may impact stem cell collection. Risk factors can include myeloma-directed therapies that are known to impact stem cell collection, previous malignancy treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation and other co-morbid conditions. Mobilization agents may be less effective in patients with multiple risk factors.

“These preliminary results are encouraging, given the expected mobilization challenges present in the multiple myeloma patient population,” said Jason Gardner, D.Phil., President and Chief Executive Officer, Magenta Therapeutics. “A patient’s ability to mobilize is highly contingent on a variety of risk factors, which is particularly relevant for blood cancer patients. These initial results provide insight into MGTA-145 plus plerixafor’s ability to improve the approach to mobilization and collection, and its potential to be a first-line mobilization drug in this and other disease areas.”

“Based on this initial data set, MGTA-145 combined with plerixafor has shown promising results for rapid stem cell mobilization in patients with multiple myeloma,” said John Davis Jr., M.D., M.P.H., M.S., Head of Research & Development and Chief Medical Officer, Magenta Therapeutics.


This study is being conducted at Stanford University School of Medicine and is led by Surbhi Sidana, M.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Blood and Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy at Stanford Medicine.

Planned MGTA-117 Clinical Study

Magenta is on track to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for MGTA-117, a potential first-in-class drug for targeted patient conditioning, in June 2021. In preparation for the filing, Magenta has finalized its proposed clinical trial study design which incorporates FDA feedback from pre-IND communications. Magenta anticipates starting the Phase 1/2 dose escalation study by evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MGTA-117 as a single agent in a relapsed/refractory AML and MDS patient population. Magenta will also monitor for anti-tumor activity in this patient subset, which is a population that is not traditionally eligible for stem cell transplant. Magenta expects to work with the FDA on an ongoing basis to transition the study to transplant-eligible patients after adequate data related to the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MGTA-117 have been collected in the relapsed/refractory AML and MDS patient population.
