Gamida Cell Reports Full Year 2022 Financial Results and Provides Company Update (Businesswire) - "Reduce operating expenses in order to extend its cash runway: The company will discontinue the development of its engineered NK cell therapy preclinical pipeline, including GDA-301, GDA-501 and GDA-601, while maintaining the IP to these candidates. It will implement a headcount reduction of 17%, with the majority of impacted headcount tied to the discontinuation of the pre-clinical NK cell therapy candidates....These changes are expected to extend the company’s cash runway through Q3 2023....Research and development expenses, net were $42.7 million in 2022, compared to $50.2 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $9.6 million decrease in clinical and operational activities relating to the conclusion of our Phase 3 study of omidubicel, offset by an increase of $1.1 million in T&E and other expenses as well as a $1.0 million decrease in Israeli Innovation Authority grants."
