## Article Body
Autolus Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: AUTL), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company developing, manufacturing and delivering next-generation programmed T cell therapies and candidates, announces the online publication of an abstract submitted to the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, to be held May 29 – June 2, 2026, in Chicago, Illinois.

“Data to be presented at the upcoming ASCO Annual Meeting provides insight into the use of obe-cel in patients with B-ALL and extramedullary disease (EMD), which is typically associated with shorter median and long-term survival compared to marrow-only relapse. With an overall response rate of 59% and a median duration of response (mDOR) of 42.6 months for patients with EMD, obe-cel may be considered as a potential treatment option for this difficult to treat population of patients,” said Matthias Will, MD, Autolus Chief Development Officer.

Abstract 6517 Title : The effect of obecabtagene autoleucel (obe-cel) on adult patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL) and extramedullary disease (EMD). Session Type and Track: Rapid Oral Abstract: Hematologic Malignancies—Leukemia, Myelodysplastic Syndromes, and Allotransplant. Session Date and Time : May 30, 2026; 1:15 – 2:45PM CDT Session Room : E450a Abstract Number : 6517 Presentation time: 2:27 – 2:33pm CDT Presenting Author : Jae Park, MD, Director, Adult ALL Program | Acting Chief, Cellular Therapeutics, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, USA

Summary: A post-hoc analysis of the Phase Ib/II FELIX study (NCT04404660) was conducted, evaluating the efficacy and safety of obe-cel in patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) B-ALL, by EMD status at lymphodepletion (LD). Following LD, adults with r/r B-ALL received obe-cel using a tumor burden-guided dosing strategy to minimize toxicity. Obe-cel treatment demonstrated favorable response and safety outcomes in patients with and without EMD in the FELIX trial. Of 127 obe-cel infused patients, 27 (21%) had EMD at LD. Among responders, duration of response in patients with EMD was 42.6 months, and the overall remission rate was 59%. Overall, these findings suggest a positive benefit–risk profile for obe-cel, including for patients with adverse risk features, specifically EMD at LD.
