to the Staff’s comment letter dated June 18, 2024.
Correspondence Dated June 21, 2024
1. We note your response to prior comment 1 and reissue as it still appears that the Exchange Agreements were not separate and apart
from the Merger Agreement. We note the Form 8-K filed by Evofem Biosciences, Inc. on December 27, 2023 indicates that “[p]rior to
the Consummation of the Merger Agreement, the Aditxt and the Holders shall enter into an exchange agreement (the ‘Aditxt Exchange Agreement’)
whereby the shares of the Company’s Series F-1 Preferred Stock will be exchanged for Aditxt preferred stock.” Additionally,
we note Section 6.23 of the Merger Agreement included as Exhibit 2.1 in your Form 8-K filed December 12, 2023 references certain Exchange
Agreements to be entered into prior to closing. Please revise your preliminary proxy statement to provide the disclosures required by
Items 11, 13 and 14 of Schedule 14A with respect to those matters, as applicable, pursuant to Note A of Schedule 14A. Alternatively, please
provide us with analysis supporting why such disclosure is not required.
Response:
In
response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has removed Proposal No. 3 from its revised Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule

Dear
Mr. Crawford:
This
letter sets forth the response of Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the comment received from the
Staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 18, 2024 concerning
the Company’s Revised Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Commission on June 18, 2024 (the “Revised
Preliminary Proxy Statement”).
Revised
Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
Proposal
No. 8: The Authorized Share Increase Proposal, page 54
1. We
note your response to prior comment 3 and reissue. Your Form 8-K filed December 26, 2023
indicates that you entered into the Exchange Agreement in connection with the Merger Agreement
making it appear that the Exchange Agreement is not separate and apart from the Merger Agreement.
Please revise your preliminary proxy statement to provide the disclosures required by Items
11, 13 and 14 of Schedule 14A with respect to those matters, as applicable, pursuant to Note
A of Schedule 14A. Alternatively, please provide us with analysis supporting why such disclosure
is not required.
Response:
The
Company respectfully submits that although the Exchange Agreement and Merger Agreement were entered into in December 2023 and certain
security holders of Evofem were parties to the Exchange Agreement, the transaction under the Exchange Agreement closed on December 22,
2023 and is separate and apart from the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, which have yet to close and may never close.
The Company has issued the shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and its obligations under the Exchange Agreement, which include
but are not limited to, obtaining approval of any matters
requiring stockholder approval pursuant to the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market including, without limitation the issuance
of more than 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, in connection with the transaction, are not in any way contingent upon the
closing of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, the Company has
amended its Form 8-K filed December 26, 2023 to clarify that the Exchange Agreement was
not entered in connection with the Merger Agreement. In addition, the Company respectfully acknowledges that, if and when the Company
seeks stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, it will file a separate proxy statement
containing the disclosures required by Items 11, 13 and 14 of Schedule 14A.
If
you have any questions relating to any of the foregoing, please contact Sean F. Reid of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP at

3. We note that Proposal 3 is a solicitation of your stockholders for the issuance of shares of common stock underlying shares of Series
A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Exchange Agreement with Evofem Biosciences, Inc. in December
2023. In addition, we note Proposal 6 is a solicitation of your stockholders for the issuance of shares of common stock underlying shares

pursuant to the Exchange Agreement by and between the Company and the investors signatory thereto (the “Exchange Agreement”).
The transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith are separate and apart
from the Merger Agreement and will survive whether or not the transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement ultimately closes. Accordingly,
the Company has revised its disclosure in Amendment No. 1 to its Preliminary Proxy Statement to remove the reference to the Merger Agreement
with respect to Proposal No. 3. In addition, the Company has removed Proposal No. 6 from Amendment No. 1 to its Preliminary Proxy Statement.

Dear
Ms. Mariner:
This
letter sets forth the response of Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the comment received from the
Staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 20, 2024 concerning
Amendment No. 3 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276588) filed with the Commission on February
12, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”).
Amendment
No. 3 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Prospectus
Summary
Recent
Developments
Merger
Agreement with Evofem Biosciences, Inc.
1. We
note your disclosure that you appear to have purchased equity investments in the amount of
$22,711,211, which corresponds to an investment in Evofem on your balance sheet. Please provide
us your analysis of accounting for this investment under the cost method and how you concluded
that you do not exercise significant influence over Evofem such that financial statements
pursuant to Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X would be required. In addition, please confirm you
continue to believe the acquisition of Evofem is not probable such that financial statements
and pro forma information are not required under Rule 3-05 and Article 11 of Regulation S-X.
Response:
Under
ASC 321, investments in equity securities are reported at fair value. If an investment does not have a readily determinable fair value,
the security may qualify to use net asset value as a practical expedient to fair value. If an investment does not have a readily determinable
fair value and does not qualify for the net asset value practical expedient, ASC 321010-35-2 provides that an entity, other than those
that apply industry-specific guidance, may elect to measure an equity security at cost minus impairment, plus or minus changes resulting
from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar instrument of the same issuer.
In
concluding to account for this transaction under the cost method in accordance with ASC 321, the Company considered the following key
factors:
● The
Evofem Series F-1 Preferred Stock meets the requirements of an equity security;
● There
is not a readily determinable market value for the Evofem Series F-1 Preferred Stock;
● The
original cost basis is based upon the amounts exchanged as provided by the issuer of the
securities and the third-party holders;
● The
Company has not identified observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical
or a similar investment of the same issuer.
Also,
in accordance with ASC 321, the Company plans to reassess at each reporting period whether the equity investment without a readily determinable
fair value qualifies to be measured. In addition, in accordance with ASC 321, the Company will continue to assess the carrying value
of this investment (currently carried at cost). To the extent the investment requires adjustment either because of an impairment, or
a further exchange of additional similar securities the Company will adjust the basis and reflect any gain/loss in the Income Statement.
The Company will also continue to assess for an increase or decrease in the level of ownership of the Company’s equity interests
which may cause the Company to change its method of accounting for securities to or from the guidance in ASC 321. Furthermore, to the
extent that the Company’s increases their position either through further acquisitions of securities, or the conclusion of the
Merger, the Company will further assess treatment under the equity method, or consolidation method of accounting, as required under USGAAP.
The investment will be held at cost and assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis.
The
Company respectfully submits that it did not deem the Evofem merger to be probable at the time of filing of its Form 8-K on December
12, 2023 nor does it presently deem the Evofem merger to be probable. While a definitive agreement merger agreement was entered into
with Evofem on December 11, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), there are significant conditions to closing, many of which are
outside of the Company’s control, that need to be satisfied, before the Company would consider closing to be probable. These conditions
include the following:
Conversion
of Evofem Preferred Stock
● All
preferred stock of Evofem (other than the Evofem Series E-1 Preferred Stock) is required
to be converted to common stock of Evofem;
● The
holders of such preferred stock of Evofem are entitled to certain rights upon a change of
control transaction, including but not limited to a redemption right;
● The
Company can provide no assurance that all holders will elect to convert such preferred stock.
2
Agreement
of Evofem Warrant Holders
● Evofem
is required to (i) obtain agreements from all holders of its warrants which provide: (a)
waivers with respect to any fundamental transaction, change in control or other similar rights
that such warrant holder may have under any such Evofem warrants, and (b) an agreement to
such Evofem warrants to exchange such warrants for preferred stock; or (ii) cash out any
warrant holders that have not agreed to the foregoing;
● The
Company can provide no assurance that Evofem will be successful in obtaining the agreement
of its warrant holders or that they will have sufficient funds to cash out any remaining
warrant holders;
Waivers
from Evofem Convertible Noteholders
● Evofem
shall have obtained waivers from the holders of the convertible notes of Evofem (the “Evofem
Convertible Notes”) with respect to any fundamental transaction rights that such holder
may have under the Evofem Convertible Notes, including any right to vote, consent, or otherwise
approve or veto any of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement;
● The
Company can provide no assurance that Evofem will be successful in securing such waivers;
Exchange
of Evofem Convertible Notes and Purchase Rights
● the
Company shall have obtained agreements with the holders of certain securities of Evofem,
including Convertible Notes and purchase rights, to exchange such securities with an aggregate
value of approximately $86.1 million, for not more than an aggregate (for all holders of
Evofem Convertible Notes) of 86,153 shares of Company Preferred Stock;
● On
December 26, 2023, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with certain of such holders
pursuant to which such holders exchanged Evofem securities with an aggregate stated value
of approximately $22.3 million for 22,280 shares of Company Preferred Stock;
● The
Company can provide no assurance that it will be successful in reaching an agreement with
the remaining holders of such securities, with an aggregate stated value of approximately
$63.9 million, for Company Preferred Stock;
3
Loan
/ Equity Investment in Evofem
● Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, Evofem had a right to terminate the Merger Agreement in the event
that the Company had not made a loan to Evofem of no less than $3 million prior to January
31, 2024 (the “Parent Loan”);
● On
January 30, 2024, the Company and Evofem entered into an amendment to the Merger Agreement
to amend (i) the date of the Parent Loan (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to Evofem to
be February 29, 2024, (ii) to change the date by which Evofem may terminate the Merger Agreement
for failure to receive the Parent Loan to be February 29, 2024, and (iii) to change the filing
date for the Joint Proxy Statement (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to April 1, 2024;
● On

“Additional Consideration”) and in increase in the aggregate principal balance of $300,000 on the September 2024 Secured
Notes. The Company failed to make the Additional Consideration Payment by February 9, 2024 and was then in default on the January 2024
Secured Notes and the September 2024 Secured Notes. On February 26, 2024, the Company and the Holders entered into an Assignment Agreement
(the “February Assignment Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company assigned all remaining amounts due under the January

File No. 333-276588
Dear Ms. Mariner:
This letter sets forth
the response of Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the comment received from the Staff (the “Staff”)
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 15, 2024 concerning Amendment No. 2 to the
Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276588) filed with the Commission on February 12, 2024 (the “Registration

Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Prospectus Summary
Recent Developments
Merger Agreement with Evofem Biosciences, Inc.
1. We have read your response to prior comment 1 in which you indicate that the conditions to close outlined
in your letter, as well as the termination clauses and the impending loan to Evofem, deem the merger to not be probable at this time.
However, we note your disclosure in Item 9.01 of the Form 8-K filed on December 12, 2023 stating that, in accordance with the Item, you
would file financial statements and pro forma financial information, with respect to the transaction, by amendment to the Form 8-K not
later than 71 calendar days after the date the Form 8-K is required to be filed. Based on the status of your merger activities to date
and your disclosure in the 8-K, please provide us with additional details as to why you do not believe the merger is probable at this
time.
Response:
The Company respectfully
submits that it did not deem the Evofem merger to be probable at the time of filing of its Form 8-K on December 12, 2023 nor does it presently
deem the Evofem merger to be probable. While a definitive agreement merger agreement was entered into with Evofem on December 11, 2023
(the “Merger Agreement”), there are significant conditions to closing, many of which are outside of the Company’s control,
that need to be satisfied, before the Company would consider closing to be probable. These conditions include the following:
Conversion of Evofem
Preferred Stock
· All preferred stock of Evofem (other than the Evofem Series E-1 Preferred Stock) is required to be converted to common stock of Evofem;
· The holders of such preferred stock of Evofem are entitled to certain rights upon a change of control transaction, including but not
limited to a redemption right;
· The Company can provide no assurance that all holders will elect to convert such preferred stock.
Agreement of Evofem Warrant Holders
· Evofem is required to (i) obtain agreements from all holders of its warrants which provide: (a) waivers with respect to any fundamental
transaction, change in control or other similar rights that such warrant holder may have under any such Evofem warrants, and (b) an agreement
to such Evofem warrants to exchange such warrants for preferred stock; or (ii) cash out any warrant holders that have not agreed to the
foregoing;
· The Company can provide no assurance that Evofem will be successful in obtaining the agreement of its warrant holders or that they
will have sufficient funds to cash out any remaining warrant holders;
Waivers from Evofem Convertible Noteholders
· Evofem shall have obtained waivers from the holders of the convertible notes of Evofem (the “Evofem Convertible Notes”)
with respect to any fundamental transaction rights that such holder may have under the Evofem Convertible Notes, including any right to
vote, consent, or otherwise approve or veto any of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement;
· The Company can provide no assurance that Evofem will be successful in securing such waivers;
Exchange of Evofem Convertible Notes
and Purchase Rights
· the Company shall have obtained agreements with the holders of certain securities of Evofem, including Convertible Notes and purchase
rights, to exchange such securities with an aggregate value of approximately $86.1 million, for not more than an aggregate (for all holders
of Evofem Convertible Notes) of 86,153 shares of Company Preferred Stock;
2
· On December 26, 2023, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with certain of such holders pursuant to which such holders exchanged
Evofem securities with an aggregate stated value of approximately $22.3 for 22,280 shares of Company Preferred Stock;
· The Company can provide no assurance that it will be successful in reaching an agreement with the remaining holders of such securities,
with an aggregate stated value of approximately $63.9 million, for Company Preferred Stock;
Loan to Evofem
· Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Evofem had a right to terminate the Merger Agreement in the event that the Company had not made
a loan to Evofem of no less than $3 million prior to January 31, 2024 (the “Parent Loan”);
· On January 30, 2024, the Company and Evofem entered into an amendment to the Merger Agreement to amend (i) the date of the Parent
Loan (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to Evofem to be February 29, 2024, (ii) to change the date by which Evofem may terminate the
Merger Agreement for failure to receive the Parent Loan to be February 29, 2024, and (iii) to change the filing date for the Joint Proxy
Statement (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to April 1, 2024;
· As of the date hereof, the Company does not have sufficient funds to make the Parent Loan and can provide no assurance that it will
be successful in securing such funding to make the Parent Loan on or prior to February 29, 2024. In the event that the Company is unable
to make the Parent Loan on or before February 29, 2024, Evofem may terminate the Merger Agreement.
In addition to the foregoing, in connection
with the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into an assignment agreement with the holders (the “Holders”) of certain senior
secured indebtedness of Evofem, pursuant to which the Holders assigned the Notes to the Company
in consideration for the issuance by the Company of (i) an aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million in secured notes of the Company
due on January 2, 2024 (the “January 2024 Secured Notes”), (ii) an aggregate principal amount of $8.0 million in secured notes
of the Company due on September 30, 2024 (the “September 2024 Secured Notes”), (iii) an aggregate principal amount of $5.0
million in ten-year unsecured notes, and (iv) payment of $154,480 in respect of net sales of Phexxi in respect of the calendar quarter
ended September 30, 2023.
3
The
Company and the Holders have entered into a series of amendments to the January 2024 Secured Notes and the September 2024 Secured Notes,
pursuant to which, among other things, the maturity date of the January 2024 Notes was extended to February 29, 2024 in consideration
of a principal payment in the aggregate amount of $1.25 million on the January 2024 Secured Notes no later than February 9, 2024 (the
“Additional Consideration”) and in increase in the aggregate principal balance of $300,000 on the September 2024 Secured Notes.
The Company failed to make the Additional Consideration Payment by February 9, 2024 and is now in default on the January 2024 Secured
Notes and the September 2024 Secured Notes. Although the Company is in ongoing negotiations with the Holders, it can provide no assurance
that it will reach an amicable resolution of such default with the Holders. The Holders may, at any time, exercise all rights and remedies
available to them under the January 2024 Secured Notes and the September 2024 Secured Notes, which could have a material adverse effect
on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and results of operations and may prevent the Company from consummating the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
With respect to the Company’s
disclosure in Item 9.01 of the Form 8-K filed on December 12, 2023, the Company is filing an amendment to such Form 8-K concurrently herewith
removing the references to financial statements and pro forma financial information.
If you have any questions
relating to any of the foregoing, please contact Sean F. Reid of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP at (212) 896-0610.

This letter sets forth the
response of Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the comment received from the Staff (the “Staff”)
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 12, 2024 concerning the Company’s

Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Prospectus Summary
Recent Developments
Merger Agreement with Evofem Biosciences, Inc.
1. We note your disclosure stating that, on December 11, 2023, you entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with Adicure, Inc., a majority owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) and Evofem Biosciences, Inc. (“Evofem”),
pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged into and with Evofem (the “Merger”), with Evofem surviving the Merger as a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company. Please tell us your consideration of including pro forma financial statements, according to the guidance
in Rule 11-01(d) of Regulation S-X, and financial statements of Evofem, according to the guidance in Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X, in your
filing. In addition, please tell us your consideration as to whether or not the acquisition of the MDNA assets, as described in your December
31, 2023 and January 9, 2024 Form 8-Ks, would require pro forma information and financial statements to be included in your filing.
Response:
The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has summarized its consideration of the guidance in Rule 11-01(d) of Regulation S-X and Rule
3-05 of Regulation S-X with respect to the Merger and the acquisition of MDNA assets below..
Rule 11-01(d) of Regulation
S-X provides in relevant part that the term “business” should be “evaluated in light of the facts and circumstances
involved" and “whether there is sufficient continuity of the entity’s operations prior to and after the transactions
such that disclosure of the financial information is material to an understanding of future operations. Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X requires
in relevant part that the filing of separate pre-acquisition historical financial statements is required when the acquisition of a significant
business has occurred or is probable.
Merger Agreement
with Evofem Biosciences, Inc.
As disclosed under
the heading Recent Developments – Merger Agreement with Evofem Biosciences, Inc. on page [7] of the Registration Statement, the
closing of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions (the “Conditions
to Closing”), including but not limited to: (i) approval by our shareholders and the Evofem shareholders of the transactions contemplated
by the Merger Agreement; (ii) the registration statement on Form S-4 pursuant to which the shares of our Common Stock issuable in the
Merger having been declared effective by the SEC; (iii) all preferred stock of Evofem subject to certain exceptions shall have been converted
to Evofem common stock; (iv) Evofem shall have received agreements from all holders of Evofem warrants which provide: (a) waivers with
respect to any fundamental transaction, change in control or other similar rights that such warrant holder may have under any such Evofem
warrants, and (b) an agreement to such Evofem warrants to exchange such warrants for not more than an aggregate (for all holders of Evofem
warrants) of 551 shares of our preferred stock of Evofem; (v) the Company shall have obtained agreements from the holders of certain
convertible notes and purchase rights of Evofem to exchange such convertible notes and purchase rights for not more than an aggregate
(for all holders of Evofem convertible notes) of 86,153 shares of our preferred stock; and (vi) we shall have received waivers form the
holders of certain of our securities which contain prohibitions on variable rate transactions.
In addition, the Merger
Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the consummation of the closing for a variety of reasons by the Company or Evofem, including
but not limited to, by Evofem if the Company has not made a loan to Evofem of no less than $3 million prior to January 31, 2024 (the “Evofem
Loan”), which date was subsequently extended to February 29, 2024.
Although the Company
is working diligently towards satisfying the Conditions to Closing and its other obligations under the Merger Agreement, including but
not limited to, making the Evofem Loan, the Company does not deem the closing of the Merger to be probable at this time due to the fact
that certain of the Conditions to Closing are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, the Company cannot presently provide any
assurance that it will be able to provide the Evofem Loan on or before February 29, 2024.
The Company will provide
the pro forma financial statements with respect to the Merger and the required historical financial statements of Evofem once the Merger
is probable to occur.
Asset Purchase
Agreement with MDNA Life Sciences, Inc.
The Company does not
believe that the assets acquired from MDNA Life Sciences, Inc. constitute a business under Rule 3-05 (as set forth in Rule 11-01(d)) nor
does the Company believe that the disclosure of pro forma information regarding the assets acquired would be material to investors.
Section 2010.2 of
the SEC Financial Reporting Manual further states “A ‘business’ for purposes of Rule 3-05 is identified by evaluating
whether there is sufficient continuity of operations so that disclosure of prior financial information is material to an understanding
of future operations.” Section 2010.2 further states that the inquiry of whether a business is being acquired requires registrants
to consider the following:
● Whether the nature of the revenue producing activity generally
remain the same; or
● Whether the facilities, employee base, distribution system,
sales force, customer base, operating rights, production techniques or trade names remain the same after the acquisition.
The assets acquired primarily consist of
certain intellectual property relating to tests for endometriosis and prostate cancer that are currently under development, which are
not currently revenue producing. As part of the transaction, the Company did not acquire any facilities, customers, or operating rights.
The Note to Section 2010.2 states, “The staff’s analysis of whether an acquisition constitutes the acquisition of a business,
rather than of assets, focuses primarily on whether the nature of the revenue producing activity previously associated with the acquired
assets will remain generally the same after the acquisition.” The MDNA assets had no revenue producing activities at or prior to
the acquisition.
Acquisition of Certain Assets of
Brain Scientific, Inc.
In addition, the Company
does not believe that acquisition of certain assets formerly owned by Brain Scientific, Inc. under an assignment for the benefit of creditors
constitute a business under Rule 3-05 (as set forth in Rule 11-01(d)) nor does the Company believe that the disclosure of pro forma information
regarding the assets acquired would be material to investors. The assets acquired through the assignment
for the benefit of creditors include 16 patents covering a portfolio of EEG brain monitoring technologies and devices. The sole assets
acquired consist of intellectual property. The Company did not acquire any employees, distribution systems, sales force, customers, or
operating rights.
