Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On June 24, 2024, Adicet Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release titled “Adicet Bio Announces FDA Clearance of IND Application for ADI-270 in Renal Cell Carcinoma,” a copy of which is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.


The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 24, 2024, the Company announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared the Company’s Investigational New Drug application to evaluate ADI-270, an armored allogeneic “off-the-shelf” gamma delta chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy candidate targeting CD70+ cancers, for the treatment of relapsed/refractory renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The Company plans to initiate a Phase 1 multicenter, open-label clinical trial to assess the safety and anti-tumor activity of ADI-270 in RCC patients in the second half of 2024 and share preliminary clinical data in the first half of 2025. The trial is designed to investigate ADI-270 as monotherapy in adults with relapsed or refractory clear cell RCC. Following lymphodepletion, patients will be eligible to receive a single dose of ADI-270 with a starting dose level of 3E8 CAR+ cells. Subject to meeting protocol defined criteria, patients enrolled in the study may be eligible to receive a second dose of ADI-270. The dose escalation and dose expansion portions of the trial will evaluate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics as well as anti-tumor activity as assessed by overall response rate, duration of response and disease control rate.
