Adaptive Biotechnologies Corporation (“Adaptive Biotechnologies”) (Nasdaq: ADPT), a commercial stage biotechnology company that aims to translate the genetics of the adaptive immune system into clinical products to diagnose and treat disease, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

“We are pleased to deliver another strong quarter across both the MRD and Immune Medicine businesses,” said Chad Robins, chief executive officer and co-founder of Adaptive Biotechnologies. “I am encouraged by the MRD business momentum as more clinical data and reimbursement decisions continue to drive clonoSEQ adoption. In parallel, data emerging from our immune medicine platform has led to growing interest from pharma partners that will drive revenue and may accelerate diagnostic use cases and potential drug discovery opportunities.”

Recent Highlights

  • Revenue of $43.7 million for the second quarter 2022, representing a 13% increase from the second quarter 2021.
  • clonoSEQ test volume in the second quarter 2022 grew 53% versus the second quarter of prior year and 17% over the first quarter of 2022.
  • Received expanded Medicare coverage of clonoSEQ for assessment of MRD in patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).
  • Signed a new pan-portfolio agreement with major partner for the use of clonoSEQ to measure MRD as a clinical endpoint.
  • Sharpened focus on Immune Medicine commercialization strategy to prioritize pharma partnering and drug discovery opportunities.

About Adaptive Biotechnologies

Adaptive Biotechnologies (“we” or “our”) is a commercial-stage biotechnology company focused on harnessing the inherent biology of the adaptive immune system to transform the diagnosis and treatment of disease. We believe the adaptive immune system is nature’s most finely tuned diagnostic and therapeutic for most diseases, but the inability to decode it has prevented the medical community from fully leveraging its capabilities. Our proprietary immune medicine platform reveals and translates the massive genetics of the adaptive immune system with scale, precision and speed to develop products in life sciences research, clinical diagnostics and drug discovery. We have commercial products and a robust clinical pipeline to diagnose, monitor and enable the treatment of diseases such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases. Our goal is to develop and commercialize immune-driven clinical products tailored to each individual patient.
