Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On June 15, 2017, Selecta Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) furnished a corporate slide presentation (the “June 15 Presentation”) providing additional data from the Company’s ongoing, open-label Phase 2 company-sponsored trial, which is assessing the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of SEL-212 in patients with elevated uric acid levels and symptomatic gout (the “Phase 2 Trial”).

The Company is now furnishing an updated corporate presentation (the “Updated Presentation”), which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1. In addition to incorporating information from the June 15 Presentation, the Updated Presentation includes, among other things, data with respect to Cohort 7 of the Phase 2 Trial, which were not contained in the June 15 Presentation.

The Company undertakes no obligation to update, supplement or amend the materials attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.


Item 8.01. Other Events.

The Updated Presentation amends (i) the number of patients enrolled in the Phase 2 Trial as of June 12, 2017 from 60 to 62 and (ii) the percentage of patients reporting a gout flare in the first month of treatment from 15% to 14% as a result of the increase in the number of patients.
