New CNTY-813 Preclinical Data Demonstrate Durable
Glucose Control, Immune Evasion Under Alloimmune Pressure, and Scalable Manufacturing at ADA 2026
· Advancing CNTY-813 as a potential functional cure in Type 1 Diabetes
· CNTY-813 iPSC-derived islet replacement therapy demonstrates durable in-vivo glucose control maintained for more than eight months
in preclinical models
· Allo-Evasion™ 5.0 maintains insulin secretion and maintained normoglycemia under allogeneic immune pressure in humanized mouse
model without immunosuppression
· Phase 1 clinical manufacturing process has been established demonstrating consistent endocrine purity and optimal islet cell content
· CNTY-813 IND submission on track for 4Q 2026; initial clinical data expected in 2H 2027
PHILADELPHIA, June 8, 2026 - Century Therapeutics, Inc.
(‘Century’, NASDAQ: IPSC), a biotechnology company developing induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cell therapies
for autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes (T1D), and cancer, today announced the presentation of new preclinical data from CNTY-813,
Century’s iPSC-derived islet replacement therapy engineered with Allo-Evasion™ 5.0, in an oral presentation at the American
Diabetes Association (ADA) 86th Scientific Sessions in New Orleans, Louisiana.
T1D affects approximately nine million people worldwide. While islet
cell transplantation has demonstrated the potential to restore insulin independence, with insulin independence achieved in approximately
70% of patients receiving cadaveric islet transplantation at one year, the current approach requires chronic systemic immunosuppression.
The need for chronic immunosuppression limits the utility of cell transplantation for the majority of T1D patients. CNTY-813 is designed
to address this directly: a potential off-the-shelf, iPSC-derived islet replacement therapy engineered with Allo-Evasion™ 5.0 to
eliminate the need for immunosuppression and exogenous insulin. Based on preclinical data to date, Century believes CNTY-813 has the potential
to deliver what no prior therapy has achieved, a functional cure for T1D without the need for chronic immunosuppression.
The presentation, titled “CNTY-813: Scalable Production of Allo-Evasion™
5.0-Engineered iPSC Beta Islets for Off-the-Shelf Cell Therapies” (Abstract 1318-OR), was delivered by Leonardo Velazco-Cruz, Ph.D.,
at 2:45 p.m. CT. The data highlight CNTY-813’s demonstrated functional potency, scalable manufacturing, engraftment with no
evidence of abnormal outgrowth or tumorigenesis, and ability to maintain glucose control under allogeneic immune pressure, a combination
of properties that Century believes distinguishes CNTY-813 as a completely novel approach to islet cell replacement.
"These preclinical data advance our case for a potentially functional
cure for type 1 diabetes. Across a range of preclinical studies, CNTY-813 has now demonstrated what we believe are critical prerequisites
for a potentially curative islet replacement therapy: glucose-responsive function comparable to primary islets, graft stability with no
evidence of tumorigenesis, and immune evasion engineered to eliminate the need for chronic immunosuppression," said Brent Pfeiffenberger,
Pharm.D., Chief Executive Officer of Century Therapeutics. "Having established our Phase 1 manufacturing process and demonstrated
consistent product quality across independent batches, we are confident in our readiness for clinical trials and the potential to scale
for broad patient access. With our IND submission on track for the fourth quarter of 2026 and initial clinical data anticipated in the
second half of 2027, we are executing with discipline toward what we believe is a highly competitive and differentiated program.”
Preclinical data highlights
The oral presentation highlighted new preclinical data from CNTY-813
studies as outlined below. The full presentation is available on the Presentations tab of Century’s investor relations website
at investors.centurytx.com/events-and-presentations.
Durable glucose control in vivo
CNTY-813 iPSC-derived islet cells rapidly restored normoglycemia in
streptozotocin-rendered diabetic mice and maintained glucose control for greater than eight months following transplantation. New data
demonstrate that Allo-Evasion™ 5.0-edited cells showed comparable glucose control to non-edited cells, confirming the immune evasion
engineering modifications do not affect the islets’ ability to control glucose. Islet performance in a glucose tolerance test demonstrated
glucose normalization within 60 minutes in both edited and unedited islets.
Cell composition and acceptable post-mitotic safety profile
New single-cell RNA sequencing analysis demonstrated that CNTY-813
contains a consistent and optimal ratio of differentiated cell types in islet clusters, with beta cells comprising greater than 50% of
total cell composition. Greater than 98% of cells were identified in G1 phase, indicating cell cycle exit on par with primary islets.
In vivo graft analysis at two, four, and eight weeks post-infusion confirmed endocrine graft morphology was maintained with no evidence
of cyst formation or abnormal outgrowth, as assessed by Ki67 staining over time. No tumorigenesis was observed in more than 140 mice with
more than three months of follow-up across one billion cells infused.
Immune evasion: in vitro protection
Additional data from multiple in vitro assays demonstrated that CNTY-813
cells containing Allo-Evasion™ 5.0 edits provided significant protection from natural killer (NK) cell clearance, induced rapid
IgG cleavage of a surrogate anti-drug antibody, and demonstrated protection from antibody-mediated phagocytosis. These results confirm
functional activity across all three engineered immune protection layers: T cells, NK cells, and humoral evasion.
Immune evasion: in vivo protection in humanized mouse model
New data from a humanized mouse allogeneic graft rejection model engrafted
with healthy donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to support survival of functional human T cells without graft-versus-host
disease and human NK cells, demonstrated that mice transplanted with CNTY-813 maintained normal C-peptide secretion function through 42
days post-transplant. In contrast, mice transplanted with unedited islet grafts showed rapid functional deterioration and allo-rejection
with PBMC co-engraftment. Consistent with immune evasion, Allo-Evasion™ 5.0-engineered islets maintained glucose tolerance in a
glucose tolerance test under allogeneic immune pressure while unedited islets showed reduced function.
Consistent product quality from Phase 1 clinical manufacturing process
Century has established its manufacturing processes for Phase 1 clinical
trial supply. New data demonstrated consistent product quality across three separate at-scale experiments from Century’s GMP Master
Cell Bank, comprising 11 samples, with optimal endocrine purity, islet cell content, and minimal islet cell impurities across all samples.
The 29-day, bioreactor-based suspension differentiation process met pre-defined purity specifications at each stage. The process supports
cryopreservation with retained post-thaw potency.
Upcoming CNTY-813 milestones
· IND submission (4Q 2026): Century expects to submit an Investigational New Drug application for CNTY-813 in the fourth quarter
of 2026, subject to completion of remaining IND-enabling studies.
· Initial clinical data (2H 2027): Initial safety and early efficacy data from the first-in-human CNTY-813 study are anticipated
in the second half of 2027.
About CNTY-813
CNTY-813 is Century’s potential iPSC-derived islet replacement
therapy for T1D. CNTY-813 is engineered with Allo-Evasion™ 5.0, Century’s proprietary immune evasion technology, which is
designed to enable durable engraftment without chronic systemic immunosuppression, the central unresolved limitation of every currently
approved or late-stage cell therapy approach to T1D. Preclinical data demonstrated robust glucose-responsive function, favorable pre-clinical
safety profile, scalable and reproducible manufacturing, and immune protection under alloimmune pressure. Century is targeting an IND
submission for CNTY-813 in the fourth quarter of 2026.

DIFFERENTIATION
PLATFORM
• Reproducible, bioreactor-enabled differentiation from
GMP MCB
• Phase 1 clinical manufacturing
process established
• CNTY-813 specs:
– >95% islet endocrine
– >50% beta cell identity
CNTY-813 demonstrated reproducible differentiation, durable glucose control,
and immune-evasive function in preclinical models
FUNCTIONAL
ISLETS
• GSIS potency similar to primary
islets
• Rapid and durable glucose
control observed in diabetic
mice
• Maintained graft identity with a
favorable safety profile
ALLO-EVASION
5.0
• Engineered to reduce T-cell, NK-cell, and humoral immune
recognition
• Protection from NK and
humoral clearance
demonstrated
• Preserved graft function under
alloimmune pressure in vivo
