Management Commentary
- “This quarter marks a major clinical inflection point for Indaptus… we dosed the first patient in our Phase 1b/2 combination study evaluating Decoy20 with the PD‑1 checkpoint inhibitor tislelizumab.” — Jeffrey Meckler, CEO .
- “Our preclinical studies showed that Decoy20 broadly enhances both innate and adaptive immune cell activation and works synergistically with a PD‑1 inhibitor to induce solid tumor regression.” .
- “We raised approximately $5.7 million in gross proceeds through the sale of convertible promissory notes… In July 2025, the notes were converted into common stock and pre‑funded warrants.” .
- “We remain focused on disciplined execution and look forward to sharing initial combination trial data later this year.” .

Key Takeaways for Investors
- Clinical catalyst path is clearer: with the first patient dosed in the PD‑1 combo and initial data expected later in 2025, headline‑driven volatility risk is higher but positive read‑through could be meaningful .
- Liquidity improved near‑term: $5.7M notes (now equity) plus earlier financings extend runway into Q4 2025, reducing financing overhang for the next couple of quarters .
- Non‑cash accounting from convertible notes (FV change) added ~$0.79M to Q2 loss; investors should focus on underlying opex trajectory and clinical milestones rather than GAAP noise .
- G&A YoY discipline persisted despite financing costs; R&D should trend with combination cohort enrollment cadence .
- Reverse split re‑established Nasdaq compliance and may expand the eligible investor base, though it does not change fundamentals; watch for sustained liquidity and institutional interest .
- Estimates are thin; the slight EPS beat vs consensus is less informative than execution against the combo trial timeline and safety/early activity signals .
