"Throughout the year, we have continued to build evidence supporting cemsidomide’s potential as a backbone therapy across the multiple myeloma treatment landscape while advancing our clinical development plan to evaluate cemsidomide in late and earlier lines of therapy," said Andrew Hirsch, president and chief executive officer of C4 Therapeutics. "Growing clinical and translational insights from our program as well as the broader class of cereblon-modulating protein degraders of IKZF1/3 continue to support the potential for these investigational treatments to enhance immune-based therapies, reinforcing our conviction in cemsidomide’s development strategy. Looking ahead, we remain focused on completing enrollment in our Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial and advancing the Phase 1b trial in combination with elranatamab. With data expected from these trials in 2027, we believe next year will be pivotal in establishing cemsidomide’s therapeutic profile and its potential to address the significant unmet need of patients with multiple myeloma across an evolving standard of care."

THIRD QUARTER 2026 UPDATES AND RECENT ACHIEVEMENTS

The Phase 1b trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab (ELREXFIO), a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) × CD3 bispecific antibody, in earlier lines of multiple myeloma (MM) treatment continues to advance. The Safety Data Review Committee determined that the 75 µg cemsidomide dose level was safe to proceed, and the trial has advanced to a dose escalation safety cohort at the 100 µg cemsidomide dose level and an expansion cohort at the 75 µg cemsidomide dose level. Data from all evaluated cohorts are expected in mid-2027.
C4T presented new biomarker data from its Phase 1 and Phase 1b clinical trials at the 23rd International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting in September 2026. Immunomodulatory effects observed in the Phase 1 trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone demonstrated robust T-cell activation, a key component of cemsidomide’s dual mechanism of action. In addition, early biomarker data from the first two patients enrolled in the Phase 1b trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab reinforced cemsidomide’s ability to drive T-cell activation and expansion as well as prevent T-cell exhaustion. These data continue to support cemsidomide’s potential as a combination partner for immune-based therapies in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
A trial-in-progress poster featuring the Phase 1b design for the trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab in RRMM will be presented at the 68th American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting taking place from December 12 – 15, 2026, in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Title: A multicenter study to evaluate the safety and preliminary antimyeloma activity of different doses of cemsidomide in combination with elranatamab in subjects with RRMM
Date/Time: December 12, 2026 from 5:30 – 7:30 PM CT/ 6:30 – 8:30 PM ET
The Phase 2 MOMENTUM trial evaluating cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in late-line MM is on track to complete enrollment in the first quarter of 2027. The initial investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR) data are expected in the second half of 2027.
An additional Phase 1b trial evaluating cemsidomide across two treatment arms in RRMM patients is on track to initiate in the first half of 2027. The trial will evaluate: 1) cemsidomide, dexamethasone, and daratumumab, a CD38-targeted antibody; and 2) cemsidomide, dexamethasone, and carfilzomib, a proteasome inhibitor. Both treatment arms will enroll patients who have received at least one prior line of therapy. The cemsidomide starting dose will be 75 µg.
At the 9th Annual Targeted Protein Degradation Summit that took place from October 26 – 29, 2026, C4T unveiled its novel DNA-encoded library (DEL) that leverages C4T’s large library of cereblon-binding ligands and screening capabilities. The addition of DEL to C4T’s TORPEDO platform creates a powerful hit-finding engine that enables the rapid development of targeted protein degraders.

THIRD QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenue: Total revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was $8.5 million, compared to $11.2 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily related to the conclusion of certain research activities in 2025 associated with the collaborations with Merck and Merck KGaA, Darmstadt Germany, offset by an increase in revenue recognized under the Roche Degrader-Antibody Conjugate collaboration agreement.

Research and Development (R&D) Expense: R&D expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $24.8 million, compared to $26.0 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in R&D expense was primarily due to lower personnel costs from reduced stock-based compensation expense, offset by higher clinical expense associated with the advancement of its ongoing cemsidomide clinical trials.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expense: G&A expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $8.3 million compared to $8.9 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in G&A expense was primarily due to lower personnel costs from reduced stock-based compensation expense.

Net Loss and Net Loss per Share: Net loss for the third quarter of 2026 was $21.8 million, compared to $32.2 million for the third quarter of 2025. Net loss per share for the third quarter of 2026 was $0.16, compared to $0.44 for the third quarter of 2025.

Cash Position and Financial Guidance: Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of September 30, 2026, were $274.7 million, compared to $300.4 million as of June 30, 2026, and $297.1 million as of December 31, 2025. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities during the third quarter of 2026 was driven by cash used to fund operations and advance its programs. C4T expects that its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will fund its operating plan to the end of 2028.

About Cemsidomide
Cemsidomide is an investigational oral cereblon-modulating protein degrader of IKZF1/3, transcription factors foundational to multiple myeloma biology. Data from the fully enrolled Phase 1 trial show cemsidomide’s differentiated safety and tolerability profile and potentially class-leading anti-myeloma activity that supports the potential for durable outcomes.

About the MOMENTUM Trial
MOMENTUM (Multi-center trial Of cemsidoMidE iN relapsed/refracTory mUltiple Myeloma) is a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cemsidomide in combination with dexamethasone in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Data from the Phase 1 trial identified 100 µg as the recommended Phase 2 dose. The primary endpoint is overall response rate per International Myeloma Working Group response criteria, as assessed by an independent review committee. Approximately 100 patients who have received at least three prior anti-myeloma regimens that must have included an IKZF1/3 degrader, a proteasome inhibitor, an anti-CD38 antibody, and a T-cell engager or CAR-T therapy will be enrolled in the trial. More information is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT07284758).

About Cemsidomide in Combination With Elranatamab (ELREXFIO)
The Phase 1b trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of cemsidomide and dexamethasone in combination with elranatamab, an FDA-approved B-cell maturation antigen CD3 targeted bispecific antibody. Data generated from the cemsidomide Phase 1 trial in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma demonstrate robust T-cell activation and cytokine expression across multiple doses. By activating immune T-cells, cemsidomide, when combined with a BCMAxCD3 bispecific such as elranatamab, may amplify the anti-myeloma immune response and lead to deeper and more durable responses. The study will evaluate different cemsidomide dose levels in patients who have received one to four prior lines of therapy, which must have consisted of at least one IKZF1/3 degrader. Exclusion criteria for patients include those who have received prior treatment with a BCMA-directed T-cell engager or BCMA-directed CAR-T therapy. More information is available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT07280013).

About Multiple Myeloma
Multiple myeloma is a blood cancer that affects plasma cells in the bone marrow. It is the second most common blood cancer, with approximately 36,000 people in the United States diagnosed each year. Multiple myeloma is characterized by cycles of remission and relapses, which leads to patients needing multiple lines of therapy to manage this persistent disease. More than 175,000 patients in the United States are estimated to be living with or in remission from myeloma. However, despite treatment advances, approximately 40% of patients do not survive beyond five years.

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Product Revenue totaled $1.9 billion for the third quarter of 2026, representing growth of 33% compared to the prior-year period.
•BRUKINSA: Global sales totaled $1.4 billion for the third quarter of 2026, representing growth of 34% compared to the prior-year period; U.S. sales of BRUKINSA totaled $1.0 billion in the third quarter of 2026, representing growth of 36% compared to the prior-year period.
•TEVIMBRA (tislelizumab): Global sales totaled $243 million in the third quarter of 2026, representing growth of 28% compared to the prior-year period.
•Amgen in-licensed products: Global sales totaled $167 million in the third quarter of 2026, representing growth of 26% compared to the prior-year period.
Gross Margin as a percentage of global product sales for the third quarter of 2026 was 88%, compared to 86% in the prior-year period on a GAAP basis. The gross margin percentage increased due to a proportionally higher sales mix of global BRUKINSA compared to other products in the Company’s portfolio. Gross margin also benefited from productivity improvements resulting in lower costs for both BRUKINSA and TEVIMBRA, which was offset by a non-cash intangible asset impairment charge of $22 million associated with our decision to discontinue promotion of POBEVCY. On an adjusted basis, which does not include depreciation and amortization, or the impairment charge, gross margin as a percentage of product sales increased to 90%, from 86% in the comparable period of the prior year.

Allogene Therapeutics Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Business Update

On November 5, 2026 Allogene Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALLO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of allogeneic CAR T (AlloCAR T) products for cancer and autoimmune disease, reported corporate updates and announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

"CAR T has transformed what’s possible in medicine, but toxicity and treatment complexity have kept its full potential out of reach for too many patients," said Zachary Roberts, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Allogene. "We believe 2027 will be an important year for cema-cel and the field, with upcoming ALPHA3 data expected to provide important insights into the potential for CAR T to be integrated into existing practice patterns, earlier in the course of a patient’s disease and closer to where they receive care. At the same time, our ALLO-329 data set to be released next week will begin to address an equally important question in autoimmune disease: whether we can deliver meaningful clinical benefit with less reliance on chemotherapy-based conditioning. Both programs reflect our conviction that the future of CAR T will be shaped not only by what these therapies can do, but by how we make them more accessible and practical for patients."

Cema-Cel: Pivotal ALPHA3 Trial in 1L Consolidation in LBCL
Cemacabtagene ansegedleucel (cema-cel) is being evaluated in ALPHA3, the first pivotal, randomized trial in LBCL designed to assess whether minimal residual disease (MRD)-guided treatment following first-line therapy can delay or prevent clinical relapse.

Enrollment momentum continues, supported by expanded site participation, increasing MRD screening activity, strong investigator engagement, and brisk enrollment in the Asia-Pacific region following the positive interim futility analysis reported earlier this year. The growing ALPHA3 network includes community oncology practices, where the majority of patients with LBCL receive treatment, reinforcing the potential for cema-cel to expand CAR T access beyond traditional treatment centers.

Early clinical experience has demonstrated the feasibility of outpatient cema-cel administration, including at community practices with limited or no prior CAR T experience. Together with the integration of MRD testing to identify patients at risk of relapse, these findings support the potential for ALPHA3 to establish a new treatment paradigm that brings CAR T earlier in the course of disease and closer to where patients receive care.

The Company continues to anticipate its next clinical update in mid-2027, with trial enrollment expected to be completed by year-end 2027.

Cema-Cel: Advancing Commercial Readiness and Patient Access
As the ALPHA3 program advances, Allogene has begun laying the groundwork for potential commercialization of cema-cel, with an early focus on payer coverage, reimbursement and treatment-site readiness to support broader patient access. To lead these efforts, the Company appointed Rocio Manghani, MPH, as Vice President, Market Access, Evidence & Strategy. Ms. Manghani brings extensive cell therapy commercialization experience from Kite, Gamida Cell and Orca Bio, including expertise in payer coverage, reimbursement, evidence generation and launch operations. Her appointment underscores Allogene’s commitment to addressing access barriers early and preparing to bring CAR T to patients where they receive care.

Further informing this strategy, an abstract accepted for online publication in November in connection with the 2026 American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting and in the supplemental issue of Blood will highlight findings from a survey of 152 U.S. hematologists and oncologists examining barriers to CAR T adoption and opportunities to expand access through allogeneic therapy.

Building on these insights, Allogene plans to host an in-person event at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) exploring how cema-cel could help overcome longstanding barriers to CAR T adoption. The discussion will explore how earlier intervention guided by MRD testing, combined with the potential for treatment in community practices, could expand access to CAR T. Additional event details will be announced at a later date.

ALLO-329: Purpose-Built Allogeneic CAR T for Autoimmune Disease
ALLO-329 is a next-generation, dual-targeting anti-CD19/CD70 AlloCAR T product incorporating the Company’s proprietary Dagger technology. The product was designed to address allogeneic rejection by targeting activated CD70-positive patient T cells, with the goal of optimizing the benefit-risk profile while reducing or eliminating the need for conventional chemotherapy-based lymphodepletion (LD).

The ongoing Phase 1 RESOLUTION trial is a dose-escalation study evaluating ALLO-329 across multiple autoimmune indications, including systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (myositis) or systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus). The trial incorporates a parallel evaluation of three conditioning approaches: no LD, cyclophosphamide alone and fludarabine plus cyclophosphamide. The design of RESOLUTION is intended to help distinguish the contribution of ALLO-329 from that of chemotherapy-based conditioning and inform selection of a treatment regimen that minimizes the burden and toxicity of LD without compromising efficacy.

Allogene will present updated clinical and translational data from RESOLUTION at the 2026 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Convergence on November 9, 2026. The presentation will build upon the published nine-patient abstract with an expanded patient population, longer follow-up and results across three dose levels and three LD approaches.

The expanded dataset will provide a more comprehensive assessment of ALLO-329’s emerging safety and efficacy, with a focus on scleroderma, while offering new insights into the relationship between conditioning intensity and treatment response. Enrollment and dose escalation continue as the Company evaluates additional dose levels and conditioning approaches to inform selection of a potential Phase 2 regimen.

Allogene will host a webinar on November 9, 2026, at 6:00 a.m. PT/9:00 a.m. ET to review the updated clinical and translational findings, prior to the ACR poster presentation later that day.

Next-Generation Pipeline: Advancing the Dagger Platform
Allogene will highlight its leadership in allogeneic CAR T at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) (Free SITC Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, November 4–8, 2026, through two invited presentations and a preclinical poster showcasing the breadth and continued evolution of its platform.

On November 5, Jeff McLeroy, M.D., Vice President, Head of Safety and Pharmacovigilance, discussed clinical findings from the Phase 1 TRAVERSE trial of ALLO-316 in renal cell carcinoma, including evidence of durable responses, CAR T expansion and tumor infiltration in patients with advanced disease. On November 6, Dr. Roberts will present Allogene’s broader vision for allogeneic CAR T as a platform designed to improve patient access across oncology and autoimmune disease, highlighting the Company’s clinical programs and the potential to bring cell therapy into more treatment settings.

Complementing these presentations, the Company will present preclinical data evaluating a novel off-the-shelf DLL3/CD70 dual CAR T product candidate for small cell lung cancer and other neuroendocrine tumors. The findings suggest that careful selection of the genomic location for site-specific-integration of the CAR can improve CAR T-cell performance in controlling tumors. Confirming and extending observations presented earlier this year with BCMA, the data show pairing the DLL3 CAR with a CAR targeting CD70 can enhance resistance to the immune-mediated rejection, illustrating that Dagger technology can be coupled with other CARs. These findings reinforce the potential of the Dagger technology as a versatile foundation for Allogene’s next-generation pipeline, supporting the development of off-the-shelf CAR T therapies across additional targets for both hematological and solid tumors as well as autoimmune disease.

AIM ImmunoTech Highlights Ampligen® Opportunity to Potentially Extend Benefits of RAS-Targeted Therapies in Pancreatic Cancer

On November 5, 2026 AIM ImmunoTech Inc. (NYSE American: AIM) ("AIM" or the "Company") reported the release of a new investor presentation, "The Ampligen Opportunity," highlighting the potential for Ampligen (rintatolimod) to complement emerging RAS-targeted therapies in pancreatic cancer, including Revolution Medicines’ Rasonque (daraxonrasib).

The presentation examines recent advances in pancreatic cancer treatment and the scientific rationale for combining RAS inhibition with immune stimulation to potentially enhance and extend clinical benefit. It also highlights previously reported Ampligen clinical observations, the ongoing Phase 2 DURIPANC program and anticipated 2027 milestones.

AIM Chief Executive Officer Thomas K. Equels states: "Ampligen has been demonstrated to be a powerful innate immunomodulator with broad-spectrum anti-tumor proliferation effects, while the RAS-targeted therapy daraxonrasib represents a new and promising development which, I believe, will likely become a first-line therapy for pancreatic cancer. I see great potential in bringing the two together. While daraxonrasib targets the signaling pathways that drive tumor growth, Ampligen is designed to stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses, which helps set Ampligen apart among late-stage clinical trials for pancreatic cancer. We believe these potentially complementary mechanisms of action provide a compelling foundation for investigating how Ampligen might enhance and prolong the benefits of targeted RAS treatment, which is especially significant because of daraxonrasib’s potential to become the standard of care therapy for pancreatic cancer in the very near future."

Key Highlights from the Investor Presentation

Daraxonrasib’s Phase 3 Results and the Potential for Complementary Treatment Strategies

The presentation highlights results from the randomized Phase 3 RASolute 302 study evaluating daraxonrasib against investigators’ choice of chemotherapy in previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

In the overall study population, daraxonrasib demonstrated:

Median overall survival of 13.2 months versus 6.7 months with chemotherapy (hazard ratio: 0.40).
Median progression-free survival of 7.2 months versus 3.6 months with chemotherapy (hazard ratio: 0.49).
These findings underscore the progress being made in RAS-targeted treatment and the opportunity to investigate strategies that may further extend disease control.

Complementary Mechanisms Support Further Investigation

Daraxonrasib inhibits RAS(ON) signaling involved in tumor growth, while Ampligen is an investigational Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) agonist designed to stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses.

Previously published research involving Ampligen has demonstrated immune modulation involving dendritic cells and T-cell responses. AIM believes these distinct mechanisms support further investigation of whether Ampligen could enhance anti-tumor immune activity alongside RAS inhibition.

The proposed combination remains investigational, and its safety, efficacy and potential to improve outcomes beyond daraxonrasib alone have not been established.

Previously Reported Ampligen Clinical Observations Provide an Encouraging Foundation

The presentation highlights findings from a Netherlands government-approved Named Patient Program evaluating Ampligen following FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.

In this nonrandomized program, 57 Ampligen-treated patients were compared with 27 historical controls. Exploratory findings included:

Median overall survival of 19.7 months versus 12.5 months in historical controls.
Median progression-free survival of 12.6 months versus 8.6 months in historical controls.
Median overall survival of 34.8 months in an Ampligen-treated subgroup with a baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio of 4.5 or less, versus 19.3 months among Ampligen-treated patients with higher ratios.
DURIPANC Program Advancing Toward Key 2027 Clinical Milestones

AIM’s ongoing Phase 1/2 DURIPANC study is evaluating Ampligen in combination with durvalumab (Imfinzi) in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who achieved stable disease following FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy.

The study enrolled 28 patients across Phase 1 and Phase 2. The Phase 2 primary endpoint is clinical benefit rate at 24 weeks. To date, the clinical trial has met each milestone on schedule.

Previously reported interim findings include encouraging tolerability, with only three Grade 3 immune-related adverse events; consistently high patient-reported quality of life; and preliminary evidence of coordinated innate and adaptive immune activation.

AIM anticipates the following milestones:

Q1 2027: Phase 2 topline results evaluating clinical benefit rate at 24 weeks.
Q3 2027: Additional analyses of overall survival, progression-free survival, quality of life and immune responses.
These findings are expected to help inform future development opportunities, including the potential design of a pivotal Phase 3 trial.

Exploring the Potential to Extend RAS-Targeted Treatment Benefits

The presentation also outlines a proposed development strategy to investigate whether adding Ampligen to ongoing daraxonrasib treatment, or as a post-daraxonrasib maintenance therapy, could strengthen anti-tumor immune responses and potentially extend disease control.

Potential evaluations include safety, biological activity, treatment timing, progression-free survival and duration of response. This proposed strategy is not an established clinical trial protocol, and additional research would be required to evaluate the combination.

Positioning Ampligen for the Evolving Pancreatic Cancer Treatment Landscape

As RAS-targeted therapies continue to advance, AIM believes Ampligen’s immunomodulatory mechanism and existing clinical observations provide a foundation for exploring complementary treatment strategies.

With anticipated DURIPANC milestones in 2027, the Company remains focused on generating additional clinical evidence while evaluating opportunities to expand Ampligen’s potential role in pancreatic cancer treatment.

The Company’s new investor presentation, "The Ampligen Opportunity," is available here.

About Ampligen

Ampligen (rintatolimod) is an investigational immunomodulatory drug that acts through Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) signaling. It is being investigated for its potential to stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses across multiple disease settings, including cancer.

"The third quarter was a record for our product revenue, outperforming our entire 2025 total in just three months. This growth was driven by the U.S. commercial launch of AQVESME in thalassemia, where broadening demand is translating into a durable base of patients on therapy," said Brian Goff, Chief Executive Officer, Agios. "This launch has built the commercial foundation for our largest indication opportunity with mitapivat – sickle cell disease. Our conviction in mitapivat for patients with sickle cell disease is grounded in the robust efficacy and safety data generated to date and we are launch-ready ahead of our PDUFA goal date of February 1, 2027. With this commercial infrastructure, alongside a strong balance sheet and a disciplined operating model, Agios is well positioned for sustained growth as a focused, rare hematology company."

Third Quarter 2026 and Recent Corporate Highlights
•Mitapivat (PYRUKYND and AQVESME) Commercial Performance and Update –
o$48.7 million in U.S. net revenue and $6.6 million in ex-U.S. net revenue in the third quarter of 2026
•U.S. net revenue increased 20% sequentially, driven by the U.S. commercial launch of AQVESME (mitapivat) in thalassemia in late January 2026.
•Ex-U.S. net revenue increased 74% sequentially, driven primarily by early access programs in Europe following the late May 2026 approval of PYRUKYND (mitapivat) in thalassemia in the European Union. This robust, early momentum underscores the strong global opportunity for mitapivat, which the company is advancing through capital-efficient partnerships with Avanzanite Bioscience B.V. in Europe and NewBridge Pharmaceuticals in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.

oAQVESME demand continues to expand following the January 2026 U.S. commercial launch in thalassemia
•In the third quarter, 177 AQVESME prescriptions with completed Agios start forms (ASFs) were written by Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS)-certified U.S. physicians, bringing cumulative prescriptions to 619 as of September 30, 2026.
•An additional 48 cumulative prescriptions had ASFs in process as of September 30, 2026, which are not included in the reported metric above.
•Demand continues to broaden, with deeper penetration in transfusion-dependent patients and expansion into the larger non-transfusion dependent population. Approximately 75% of patients remain on AQVESME after six months of treatment.

•Operating Model Update –
oOver the course of 2026, Agios reviewed its operating model, and will have reduced its R&D headcount by over 100 roles by year-end, representing a more than 35% decrease compared with 2025. The company expects the associated cost savings of these reductions to be realized in 2027.

Research and Development (R&D) Highlights
•Mitapivat (pyruvate kinase [PK] activator) –
oSickle Cell Disease –
•Agios announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has extended the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date for its mitapivat sickle cell disease supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) by three months, from November 1, 2026, to February 1, 2027.
•The FDA recently requested additional information to evaluate whether a REMS is necessary for mitapivat in sickle cell disease. The FDA classified Agios’ response to this information request as a major amendment to the sNDA, resulting in the three-month review extension.
•Agios will continue its labeling discussions with the FDA as part of the ongoing sNDA review, including elements of a potential REMS.

•American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting and Exposition (ASH 2026) –
oAgios announced that 14 abstracts led by Agios and external collaborators have been accepted for presentation and publication at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) 2026, taking place December 12-15, 2026, in New Orleans, Louisiana. These include three oral presentations featuring new data across mitapivat clinical programs.
oNew clinical data from the RISE UP Phase 3 trial of mitapivat in sickle cell disease shows durable hemoglobin improvements for up to 115 weeks (over two years) with continued treatment. Additional post-hoc RISE UP analyses show the potential for mitapivat to improve measures of kidney function and cardiac remodeling in this population, which may reflect its unique dual activation of two pyruvate kinase isoforms: PKR, expressed in red blood cells, and PKM2, expressed in organ tissues.
oThe first clinical data for AG-236 from a Phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers support every-six-month dosing in polycythemia vera, supporting a potential best-in-class profile.

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
