Cellectis SA ( (CLLS) ) has shared an update.

On March 19, 2026, Cellectis reported full-year 2025 financial results and a business update, highlighting progress on its allogeneic CAR-T portfolio and gene-editing technologies. As of December 31, 2025, the company held $211 million in cash, cash equivalents and fixed-term deposits, providing funding visibility into the second half of 2027.

The company detailed Phase 1 data for lasme-cel in relapsed or refractory B-ALL, showing an 83% overall response rate at the recommended Phase 2 dose and a 100% response rate in the target Phase 2 cohort, with all such patients becoming eligible for transplant. A pivotal Phase 2 BALLI-01 trial is ongoing, with first interim analysis planned for the fourth quarter of 2026 and a U.S. regulatory filing targeted in 2028.

For eti-cel in relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, preliminary Phase 1 data presented in December 2025 indicated an 88% overall response rate and 63% complete response rate at the current dose after at least two prior lines of therapy, including prior CD19 CAR-T in most patients. Cellectis is now enrolling a low-dose IL-2 cohort to potentially further improve response durability, with full Phase 1 data expected in 2026.

Beyond clinical programs, Cellectis underscored its technology platform with 2025 data on circular single-stranded DNA as a non-viral donor template showing superior gene-insertion efficiency and persistence versus existing approaches, and safety work on TALE base editors indicating no detectable off-target bias in key genomic regions. These advances are intended to support next-generation non-viral cell and gene therapies and de-risk future engineered cell products.

Partnerships remained an important growth pillar, with activities progressing under a research collaboration with AstraZeneca to develop up to 10 cell and gene therapies and with Servier and Allogene on anti-CD19 and anti-CD70 CAR-T programs, including a pivotal randomized Phase 2 ALPHA3 trial in first-line consolidation LBCL and a completed Phase 1b cohort in renal cell carcinoma. An arbitration ruling in December 2025 partially terminated Servier’s license to one UCART19 product version while preserving Cellectis’ ability to negotiate a direct license, clarifying rights around a key partnered asset.

On the corporate side, Cellectis’ June 26, 2025 shareholders’ meeting approved most board-backed resolutions and refreshed its board by appointing André Muller while two directors departed at the close of the meeting. Management emphasized that 2026 will be a pivotal year as it approaches major clinical readouts that could reshape its competitive position in off-the-shelf CAR-T therapies and influence future partnering and financing options.

The most recent analyst rating on (CLLS) stock is a Hold with a $4.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Cellectis SA stock, see the CLLS Stock Forecast page.
