Shares of Sana Biotechnology jumped after the company reported positive results for the latest study transplanting its UP421 cell therapy into a patient with type 1 diabetes.

The stock was up 21% at $3.16 in early trading. Shares were changing hands at $5.51 a year ago but are up 94% so far in 2025.

The Seattle company said a six-month follow-up with the patient showed the transplanted allogeneic primary islet cell engineered with Sana's hypoimmune technology were safe and well-tolerated.

An MRI scanning showed signals that were consistent with graft survival six months after transplantation, Sana said.

"The data presented today bring our vision--treating diabetes with a broadly available therapy leading to normal blood glucose control without either insulin or immunosuppression--closer to reality," Chief Executive Steve Harr said.
