CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical or current facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Forward-looking statements discuss our business, operations and financial performance and conditions, as well as our plans, objectives and expectations for our business operations and financial performance and condition. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “design,” “due,” “estimate,” “expect,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “objective,” “plan,” “predict,” “positioned,” “potential,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and other similar expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and future trends, or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. In addition, statements that “we believe” or similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us, may include projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business.

You should understand that the following important factors could affect our future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:

•

uncertainties in obtaining successful non-clinical or clinical results that reliably and meaningfully demonstrate safety, tolerability and efficacy profiles that are satisfactory to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), European Medicines Agency ("EMA") and/or other comparable regulatory authorities for marketing approval for nomlabofusp (nomlabofusp is the International Nonproprietary Name and the United States Adopted Name for CTI-1601 ) or any other product candidates that we may develop in the future and unexpected costs that may result therefrom;

•

our ability to continue to successfully execute our ongoing open label extension study (“OLE”), including the timing of site initiations and rate of patient enrollment, and our ability to pursue dose escalation;

•

our ability to benefit from participating in the FDA’s Support for Clinical Trials Advancing Rare Disease Therapeutics (“START”) pilot program for the development of nomlabofusp;

•

uncertainties associated with the clinical development and regulatory approval for nomlabofusp, including potential delays in the commencement, enrollment and completion of clinical trials, the timing of a potential Biologics License Application (“BLA”) submission for accelerated approval, including our ability to supply to the FDA all required data for the FDA to review and accept an accelerated application, or any other product candidates that we may develop in the future;

•

the difficulties and expenses associated with obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval for nomlabofusp or any other product candidates we may develop in the future, and the indication and labeling under any such approval;

•

how long we can continue to fund our operations with our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and our estimates regarding future results of operations, financial position, research and development costs, capital requirements and our access and needs for additional financing;

•

our expectations regarding the use of proceeds from recent and future financings, if any;

•

our ability, and the ability of third-party manufacturers we engage, to optimize and scale nomlabofusp or any other product candidate’s manufacturing process and to manufacture sufficient quantities of clinical supplies, and, if approved, commercial supplies of nomlabofusp or any other product candidates that we may develop in the future and our ability to maintain our relationships and contracts with our key vendors and to identify and contract with alternate or secondary key vendors;

•

our ability to realize any value from nomlabofusp and/or any other product candidates we may develop in the future in light of inherent risks and difficulties involved in successfully bringing product candidates to market and the risk that the product candidates, if approved, will not achieve broad market acceptance;

•

our ability to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to our business and other regulatory developments in the United States and other countries;

•

the size and growth of the potential markets for nomlabofusp, if approved, or any other product candidates that we may develop in the future, the rate and degree of market acceptance of nomlabofusp or any other product candidate, if approved, that we may develop in the future and our ability to serve those markets;

•

given competing therapies and products for the treatment of FA, our ability to obtain and maintain designations or eligibility for expedited regulatory programs, and to commercialize current and future product candidates, if approved, (including the impact of potential barriers to entry if a competitor is able to establish a strong market position before we are able to commercialize our products);

•

our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection and defend our intellectual property rights against third parties;

•

the performance and compliance with the rules and regulations of the FDA (and all other regulatory authorities) of third parties upon which we depend, including third-party contract research organizations ("CROs"), consultants, and third-party suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and logistics providers;

•

our ability to recruit and retain key scientific, technical, commercial, and management personnel and to retain our executive officers;

•

our ability to maintain proper functionality and security of our internal computer and information systems and prevent or avoid cyber-attacks, malicious intrusion, breakdown, destruction, loss of data privacy or other significant disruption;

•

the extent to which geopolitical tensions, including regional conflicts around the world, adverse macroeconomic events, including those due to inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, banking instability, monetary policy changes,economic slowdowns or recessions, health epidemics, unforeseen emergencies and other outbreaks of communicable diseases could disrupt our operations, the operations of third parties on which we rely or the operations of regulatory agencies we interact with in the development of nomlabofusp and any other product candidates that we may develop;

•

the potential impact of healthcare reform in the United States, including the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, and measures being taken worldwide designed to reduce healthcare costs and limit the overall level of government expenditures.

These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate, and management’s beliefs and assumptions are not guarantees of future performance or development and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are in some cases beyond our control. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur at all. The factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 14, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May [9], 2024. All forward-looking statements are applicable only as of the date on which they were made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of any unanticipated events. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
