"This filing acceptance brings us closer to establishing adjuvant Tecentriq plus chemotherapy as a new standard of care for certain types of early colon cancer," said Levi Garraway, M.D., Ph.D., chief medical officer and head of Global Product Development. "The ATOMIC results demonstrate that Tecentriq plus chemotherapy can substantially reduce the risk of disease recurrence or death, helping more patients remain cancer-free following surgery."

"One in three patients with stage III colon cancer will relapse within five years, underscoring the need for new adjuvant treatment options," said Michael Sapienza, CEO, Colorectal Cancer Alliance. "This milestone represents a critical step toward a reality where treatment is tailored to a patient’s specific tumor biology from the very beginning, giving them a better chance of preventing a recurrence."

The application is based on the landmark ATOMIC study, recently published in The New England Journal of Medicine. ATOMIC demonstrated that adding Tecentriq to standard FOLFOX6 chemotherapy reduced the risk of disease recurrence or death by 50%, compared to chemotherapy alone for people with stage III dMMR colon cancer, determined by an immunohistochemistry test, such as the VENTANA MMR RxDx Panel. The 36-month disease-free survival was 86% for Tecentriq combined with FOLFOX6 compared with 76% in the FOLFOX6 alone group. The safety profile was consistent with previous studies of Tecentriq and FOLFOX6.

Colon cancer remains one of the world’s most common and deadliest tumors. Over one million people are diagnosed globally each year, and despite surgery and chemotherapy, approximately 30% of stage III patients relapse within five years. Approximately 15% of colon cancer patients present with dMMR/MSI-H tumors, which indicate a higher mutation rate and thus have the potential to respond to immunotherapy.

The ATOMIC study was sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and conducted by the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology in partnership with Genentech and the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Internistische Onkologie (AIO) group in Germany. It highlights Genentech’s commitment to working alongside leading academic groups to tackle some of the most challenging cancers.

About the ATOMIC study
ATOMIC (A021502, NCT02912559) is a Phase III, randomized, open-label, multicenter study investigating the addition of Tecentriq (atezolizumab) to FOLFOX6 chemotherapy (a combination of folinic acid, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) in patients with stage III colon cancer who have a deficiency in DNA mismatch repair (dMMR). The trial enrolled 712 patients. Participants were randomized 1:1 to receive either FOLFOX6 plus Tecentriq for 12 cycles (six months) followed by Tecentriq monotherapy for 13 cycles (an additional six months), or FOLFOX6 alone for 12 cycles. The primary endpoint is disease-free survival (DFS).

About Tecentriq (atezolizumab)
Tecentriq is a monoclonal antibody designed to bind with a protein called PD-L1, which is expressed on tumor cells and tumor-infiltrating immune cells, blocking its interactions with both PD-1 and B7.1 receptors. By inhibiting PD-L1, Tecentriq may enable the re-activation of T cells. Tecentriq may also affect normal cells.

Tecentriq has been approved for some of the most aggressive and difficult-to-treat forms of cancer, and is the first PD-(L)1 cancer immunotherapy available in both subcutaneous and intravenous formulations.

What are Tecentriq and Tecentriq Hybreza?

Tecentriq (atezolizumab) and Tecentriq Hybreza (atezolizumab and hyaluronidase-tqjs) are prescription medicines used to treat:

Adults with a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Tecentriq or Tecentriq Hybreza may be used alone as a treatment for your lung cancer:
to help prevent your lung cancer from coming back after your tumor(s) has been removed by surgery and you have received platinum-based chemotherapy, and
you have stage 2 to stage 3A NSCLC (talk to your healthcare provider about what these stages mean), and
your cancer tests positive for "PD-L1".

Tecentriq or Tecentriq Hybreza may be used alone as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
has spread or grown, and
your cancer tests positive for "high PD-L1", and
your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene.

Tecentriq or Tecentriq Hybreza may be used with the medicines bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
has spread or grown, and
is a type called "non-squamous NSCLC", and
your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene.

Tecentriq or Tecentriq Hybreza may be used with the medicines paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
has spread or grown, and
is a type called "non-squamous NSCLC", and
your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene.

Tecentriq or Tecentriq Hybreza may be used alone when your lung cancer:
has spread or grown, and
you have tried chemotherapy that contains platinum, and it did not work or is no longer working.
If your tumor has an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene, you should have also tried an FDA-approved therapy for tumors with these abnormal genes, and it did not work or is no longer working.

Adults with a type of lung cancer called "extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC)", which is SCLC that has spread or grown

Tecentriq or Tecentriq Hybreza may be used with the chemotherapy medicines carboplatin and etoposide as your first treatment

TREOS Bio Presents New PEPI Technology Data at EACR 2026, Including Six-Year Cancer-Free Outcome in MSS Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC)

On June 9, 2026 Treos Bio, a clinical-stage company developing off-the-shelf and personalized active cancer immunotherapies, reported three abstracts on its proprietary Promiscuous EPItopes (PEPI) Technology accepted for presentation at the European Association for Cancer Research (EACR) 2026 Congress in Budapest, June 8–11.

The lead clinical finding is from the OBERTO-101 trial in MSS mCRC, a tumor type that has historically responded poorly to currently available immunotherapy approaches. A patient treated with PolyPEPI1018 at Mayo Clinic in 2019 remains disease-free 77.2 months later, with pathological complete response confirmed across resected tissues, including liver lesions.

MSS disease represents the vast majority of colorectal cancer patients and remains one of the largest unmet needs in cancer immunotherapy. PolyPEPI1018 is TREOS Bio’s lead off-the-shelf multi-peptide immunotherapy candidate, already tested in three phase I/II clinical trials. If clinical efficacy continues to be demonstrated, its off-the-shelf design could offer important practical and commercial advantages compared with fully individualized approaches, including simpler logistics, faster treatment availability and broader scalability.

The presentations reinforce several elements of TREOS Bio’s strategy: advancing PolyPEPI1018 in MSS mCRC, demonstrating the potential of the PEPI platform to support target selection without requiring tumor biopsy, and extending the platform into additional difficult-to-treat cancers, including EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

"These presentations highlight the potential of TREOS Bio’s PEPI Technology to support target prediction, broad T-cell activation and durable clinical benefit in difficult-to-treat cancers," said Sunjeet Sawhney, Chief Executive Officer of TREOS Bio. "They also reinforce the rationale for advancing PolyPEPI1018 in combination with standard therapies, while applying the PEPI Platform to additional immune-refractory cancers where current options remain limited."

OBERTO-101: Long-Term Pathological Complete Response in MSS mCRC
Co-authored by Dr. Mojun Zhu (Mayo Clinic), Dr. Joleen Hubbard (Allina Health Cancer Institute) and the Treos Bio scientific team, the case describes subject 01-0007: a patient with initially unresectable liver metastases plus lesions in the colon, lung and diffuse lymphadenopathy. After FOLFOX/cetuximab induction, the patient entered OBERTO-101 (NCT03391232) and received three doses of PolyPEPI1018 on top of standard fluoropyrimidine-based maintenance therapy. Tumor shrinkage led to partial response at week 36 and curative R0 surgery at week 56. Surgical pathology showed no viable tumor cells across the liver, colon and all 27 resected lymph nodes, and the patient remains disease-free.

Translational analyses documented broad immune activation, including:

T-cell responses against all seven PolyPEPI1018-targeted antigens;
Increases in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (CD3+ and CD8+ cells) after the third dose;
PolyPEPI1018-specific T-cell clonotypes detected in blood and tumor tissue, supporting intratumoral expansion of treatment-induced immune responses targeting non-mutated shared antigens in MSS mCRC.

EGFR-mutant NSCLC: Personalized Immunotherapy Followed by Tumor Regression on Sequential EGFR-TKI Therapy
A second case describes a 59-year-old with metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC and brain metastases, whose disease had progressed despite radiotherapy, EGFR-TKIs, chemotherapy and chemo-immunotherapy.

Under the German "individueller Heilversuch" regulatory framework, the patient received an 11-peptide personalized immunotherapy designed without tumor biopsy, using the patient’s HLA genotype and TREOS Bio’s PEPI Panel platform.

De novo T-cell responses against 7/11 peptides (no baseline responses);
Subsequent tumor RNA-sequencing confirmed expression of 8/11 predicted antigens;
After treatment, subsequent osimertinib produced sustained regression of lung and brain lesions, ongoing >9 months, with gene-expression signatures of an activated tumor microenvironment.

PEPI Panel: Rapid Target Selection Without Tumor Biopsy
The third abstract introduces the PEPI Panel, a library of 3,286 synthetic long peptides covering 184 shared tumor antigens across 19 indications. Built using proprietary data from more than 100,000 tumors and 15,693 HLA genotypes, the Panel is designed to identify peptide targets predicted to be immunogenic for individual patients using only a saliva or blood sample:

across 11 patients with seven tumor types, the PEPI Panel predicted approximately 70% of each patient’s top tumor-expressed antigens;
in 6 patients receiving PEPI-guided immunotherapies, 83% (60/72) of selected peptides induced T-cell responses.

PEPI Panel-based treatments can be designed in days, supporting a potentially faster and less invasive approach to personalized cancer immunotherapy.
