"In the first half of 2026, the Company continued to advance its development pipeline. Following the negative CHMP opinion on MaaT013 (Xervyteg), we initiated a comprehensive review of our portfolio and operating priorities. The measures implemented extend, based on our current estimates, our cash runway to December 2026, while we continue to actively explore financing and strategic partnership opportunities to support the Company’s priority programs" stated Eric Soyer, CFO of MaaT Pharma.

Pipeline highlights

In Hemato-Oncology

Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGvHD) – MaaT013 (Xervyteg)

In January 2026, MaaT Pharma transitioned the Early Access Program in Europe to Clinigen. As of June 30, 2026 and since 2019, more than 550 authorizations have been given under the Early Access Program in 14 different countries.
In March 2026, at the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) 2026 Annual Meeting, MaaT Pharma presented final results from the ARES trial evaluating MaaT013 (Xervyteg) in aGvHD. The Company also presented CHRONOS real-world data, reporting 29% 12-month overall survival and 37% Day-28 GI-ORR in third-line patients treated with therapies other than microbiome-based treatments. Clinigen hosted a dedicated symposium on steroid-refractory GI-aGvHD.
In April 2026, the CHRONOS study was published in Bone Marrow Transplantation, a peer-reviewed journal.
MaaT013 (Xervyteg) Regulatory Evaluation:

In Europe:

In June 2026, MaaT Pharma announced that the CHMP of the European Medicine Agency (EMA) adopted a negative opinion on the conditional MAA for MaaT013 (Xervyteg) for the treatment of aGvHD in adult patients with gastrointestinal involvement refractory to prior lines of therapy, confirming the previously announced negative trend opinion disclosed on May 20, 2026. At that time, the Company confirmed its plan to seek re-examination of the opinion.
As a post-period event, in September 2026, the Company announced that the CHMP of the EMA had maintained its negative opinion on the CMA application for MaaT013 following re-examination. During the application process, MaaT Pharma proposed conducting a randomized controlled Phase 3 trial versus Best Available Therapy (BAT), named PHOENIX, which is intended to support potential future regulatory submissions in the U.S., Europe and other selected territories, subject to further regulatory feedback, successful execution and positive results.

In the US and globally:

As a post-period event, in September 2026, MaaT Pharma announced progress in U.S. clinical readiness for PHOENIX, supported by feedback from a Type C interaction with the FDA and the completion of a feasibility assessment across major clinical trial sites.
Subject to appropriate funding and regulatory clearance, PHOENIX is intended to be conducted across the U.S., Europe and other regions as a proposed registrational Phase 3 trial, potentially supporting future registration submissions subject to successful execution and positive results.

Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (allo-HSCT) – MaaT033

PHOEBUS is a randomized clinical trial vs placebo evaluating MaaT033 in patients receiving allo-HSCT. Under the current development plan, the last patient is expected to be enrolled in the fourth quarter of 2027, with topline results for one-year overall survival anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2028.
In March 2026, the Company presented a poster at the EBMT 2026 Annual Meeting.

In Immuno-Oncology

MaaT034 – Next-generation drug candidates with co-cultured technology

MaaT034, a microbiome ecosystem therapy, is designed to be a universal Microbiome combination partner for immunotherapies, improving outcomes in patients with ICI-refractory solid tumors, including NSCLC and melanoma.
As a post-period event, in September 2026, MaaT Pharma announced that a CMC-focused Pre-IND meeting with the FDA was scheduled for October 2026, representing the next key regulatory milestone for MaaT034. A First-in-Human study in solid tumors, including second-line advanced NSCLC and refractory advanced melanoma, has been designed to determine the optimal dosing and pre-treatment regimen and generate initial clinical proof-of-concept data. The study could be initiated in late 2027, subject to appropriate funding and regulatory clearance.

Investigator-sponsored immuno-oncology studies

In January 2026, MaaT Pharma announced its participation in IMMUNOLIFE, an investigator-sponsored Phase 2 study led by Gustave Roussy and designed to further explore the role of the gut microbiome and antibiotics in responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced NSCLC.
The Company has also been informed that topline results from the academic-sponsored PICASSO study may be available in 2026, subject to the sponsor’s timelines. The expected PICASSO data are intended to provide complementary insights and are not expected to directly impact MaaT034’s development strategy.

In the context of the CHMP outcome, the Company is conducting a strategic review of its assets, which may result in adjustments to the associated development plans and timelines.

Key Financial Results

Key audited financial results for the first half of 2026 are as follows:

Prepared in accordance with international accounting standards IFRS

Revenues totaled €1.1 million as of June 30, 2026, compared with €2.4 million on June 30, 2025. The 55% decrease was mostly driven by the evolution of the EAP revenue model, following the implementation as of January 2026 of the Clinigen Licensing Agreement. Revenues now consist of transfer price and royalties, while the number of EAP patient treatments remained globally stable (-4%). Under the licensing agreement, Sales and Distribution costs were also transferred to Clinigen.

Operating loss was €18.3 million in the first half of 2026 compared with €15.1 million in the first half of 2025. The €3.2 million loss increase was mostly attributable to research and development costs, which progressed from €14.8 million in the first half of 2025 to €19.2 million in the first half of 2026, consistent with the advancement of the Company’s late-stage clinical programs, in particular with the data analysis and regulatory activities for MaaT013 (Xervyteg) and with the ongoing patient recruitment in the PHOEBUS Phase 2b trial in allogeneic-HSCT with MaaT033.

Income statement for the first half of 2026 also reflects accounting depreciation of certain assets, with the impairment review following the negative European regulatory outcome for the MaaT013 (Xervyteg) conditional MAA.

Cash Position

As of June 30, 2026, total cash and cash equivalents were €17.1 million, compared with
€24.9 million as of December 31, 2025. In the current context, the Company is conducting a strategic review of its assets while taking cash preservation measures with cash horizon now extended to December 2026 (vs November 2026), based on current operational assumptions.

Over the first half of 2026, net cash utilization was €7.8 million. Net cash used in Operating and Investment activities was €15.0 million, while cash generated in Net Financing activities was €7.2 million and included the €6.0 million drawdown of the second tranche of the European Investment Bank loan and €2.4 million of project loan from Bpifrance.

The Company has updated its corporate presentation available on its website: www.maatpharma.com/investors and has filed its half-year Financial Report to the AMF (Autorité des Marchés Financiers).

Jecho Laboratories, Inc. Announces Abstract Selected for Poster Presentation at the 17th Annual World ADC Congress

On September 29, 2026 Jecho Laboratories, Inc. reported it will present emerging preclinical data on JLC068, an affinity-modulated EGFR/TF bispecific antibody-drug conjugate (bsADC) at the 17th Annual World ADC Congress. EGFR and Tissue Factor (TF) are frequently co-overexpressed in solid tumors, including lung, breast, and pancreatic cancers. However, single antigen targeting ADCs have limited efficacy due to antigen heterogeneity and acquired resistance. Jecho has engineered a bsADC with TF-arm attenuation to spare normal tissue and widen the therapeutic window. JLC068 demonstrated robust efficacy across three xenograft models and was well-tolerated at efficacious doses.

Immix Biopharma Announces 89% Complete Response Rate at Interim Update Across All NEXICART-2 Patients, with MRD-Negativity Indicating Potential to Reach up to 98% Complete Response Rate, Supporting Potential Best-in-Class Therapy for Relapsed/Refractory AL Amyloidosis

On September 29, 2026 Immix Biopharma, Inc. ("ImmixBio", "Company", "We" or "Us" or "IMMX"), a global leader in relapsed/refractory AL Amyloidosis, reported positive results of an 89% (40/45) complete response (CR) rate in an interim update across all forty-five NEXICART-2 patients, advancing NXC-201 as a potential best-in-class therapy for AL Amyloidosis. All twenty-five new relapsed/refractory AL Amyloidosis patients are either in complete response (CR) or already minimum residual disease (MRD)-negative. To-date, all patients achieving MRD-negativity reached CR within one year of treatment. Across all forty-five patients, NXC-201 produced an 89% (40/45) CR rate as assessed by independent review committee. In four pending patients that are already MRD-negative, MRD-negativity in bone marrow predicts future CR, potentially increasing future CR rate up to 98% (44/45). No relapses to date have been observed for any patient who reached CR or MRD-negativity to-date. No neurotoxicity or enterocolitis has been observed to-date. NEXICART-2 final readout and BLA submission are planned in 2027.

About NEXICART-2
NEXICART-2 (NCT06097832) is a multi-site U.S. Phase 2 clinical trial of sterically-optimized CAR-T NXC-201 in relapsed/refractory AL Amyloidosis, with a registrational design. NEXICART-2 is a 45-patient study.

About AL Amyloidosis
AL amyloidosis is a devastating disease where the immune system, that’s supposed to protect, instead continuously produces toxic light chains, clogging up the heart, kidney and liver, causing organ failure and death.

The number of patients in the U.S. with relapsed/refractory AL Amyloidosis is estimated to be growing at 12% per year according to Staron, et al Blood Cancer Journal, to approximately 30,506 patients in 2026.

The Amyloidosis market was $6.2 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach $6.6 billion in 2026, according to Grand View Research.

About NXC-201
NXC-201 is a sterically-optimized BCMA-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy with a proprietary CD3ζ, CD8 hinge and binder "digital filter" designed to filter out non-specific activation. NXC-201 teaches the immune system to recognize and eliminate the source of the toxic light chains. NXC-201 has been awarded Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) and Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) by the FDA, and Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by the US FDA and in the EU by the EMA.

"For patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer, there remains a significant unmet need for new treatment options after progression on frontline therapy," said Dr. Cesar A. Perez, Director of the Drug Development Unit at Sarah Cannon Research Institute at Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute in Orlando, FL, and Principal Investigator of the TEMPO-1 study. "The current standard options have been largely unchanged since the introduction of PD-1 inhibitors nearly a decade ago. We are proud that SCRI at Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute is helping evaluate a potential new therapeutic approach through the TEMPO-1 study."

HPV infection is driving the rise of both the incidence and prevalence of OPSCC in the U.S. The disease primarily affects men in their 50s and 60s who have little or no history of smoking or heavy alcohol use. Each year approximately 14,000 OPSCC patients are estimated to be eligible for 2L treatment, and approximately 7,000 patients are estimated to die from the disease in the U.S. alone.

"Dosing the first patient in our TEMPO-1 trial marks an important step in advancing CRB-701 as a potentially novel targeted therapeutic for those impacted by OPSCC," said Leonardo Nicacio, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Corbus Pharmaceuticals. "Based on the Phase 1/2 data we presented at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) 2026, we believe that CRB-701 has the potential to deliver meaningful clinical benefit with a manageable safety profile in this underserved patient population. We are excited to be underway with TEMPO-1, which is designed to generate the evidence needed to support a potential regulatory submission."

Study Design

TEMPO-1 is a randomized controlled study (n=250) designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CRB-701 compared with investigator’s choice of capecitabine, cetuximab or docetaxel. The study’s primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR), which is intended to support a potential accelerated approval; overall survival (OS) is intended to support potential conversion to full approval.

FDA approval for the TEMPO-1 study to proceed was supported by results from Corbus’ ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical study of CRB-701, presented at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting. In an analysis of patients with 2L+ OPSCC treated at the 3.6 mg/kg dose, CRB-701 achieved a confirmed ORR of 42.9%, with a median duration of response (DoR) of 6.3 months and a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 5.6 months (ongoing).

About CRB-701

CRB-701 (SYS6002) is a next-generation antibody drug conjugate targeting Nectin-4, that contains a site-specific, cleavable linker and a homogenous drug antibody ratio of 2, using monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) as the payload. Nectin-4 is a clinically validated, tumor-associated antigen in urothelial cancer and highly expressed in other tumor types such as cervical and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The FDA has granted two Fast Track designations to CRB-701 in HNSCC and cervical cancer.
