About sac-TMT

Sac-TMT, a core product of the Company, is a novel human TROP2 ADC in which the Company has proprietary intellectual property rights, targeting advanced solid tumors such as NSCLC, breast cancer (BC), gastric cancer (GC), gynecological tumors and genitourinary tumors, among others. Sac-TMT is developed with a unique, bifunctional linker that maximizes payload delivery to tumor cells both through its irreversible connection with the anti-TROP2 monoclonal antibody sacituzumab and its pH-sensitive cleavage from a belotecan-derivative topoisomerase I inhibitor payload in the lysosome, with a drug-to-antibody-ratio (DAR) of 7.4. Sac-TMT specifically recognizes TROP2 on the surface of tumor cells by recombinant anti-TROP2 humanized monoclonal antibodies, which is then endocytosed by tumor cells and releases the payload KL610023 intracellularly. KL610023, as a topoisomerase I inhibitor, induces DNA damage to tumor cells, which in turn leads to cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis. In addition, it also releases KL610023 in the tumor microenvironment. Given that KL610023 is membrane permeable, it can enable a bystander effect, or in other words kill adjacent tumor cells.

In May 2022, the Company licensed the exclusive rights to MSD (the tradename of Merck & Co., Inc, Rahway, NJ, USA) to develop, use, manufacture and commercialize sac-TMT in all territories outside of Greater China (which includes Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan).

To date, four indications for sac-TMT have been approved and marketed in China for: 1) unresectable locally advanced or metastatic TNBC who have received at least two prior systemic therapies (at least one of them for advanced or metastatic setting);2) EGFR mutant-positive locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC following progression on EGFR-TKI therapy and platinum-based chemotherapy; 3) EGFR mutant-positive locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC who progressed after treatment with EGFR-TKI therapy; 4) unresectable or metastatic HR+/HER2- (IHC 0, IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH-) BC who have received prior ET and at least one line of chemotherapy in advanced setting. The first two indications above have been included in China’s National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL). This inclusion is expected to bring clinically meaningful benefits to a greater number of patients with BC and NSCLC. Additionally, sac-TMT has been granted six Breakthrough Therapy Designations (BTDs) by the NMPA.

Sac-TMT is the world’s first TROP2 ADC drug approved for marketing in lung cancer. As of today, Kelun-Biotech has initiated 9 registrational clinical studies in China. MSD is evaluating 17 ongoing global Phase III clinical studies of sac-TMT as a monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab or other anti-cancer agents for several types of cancer. These studies are sponsored and led by MSD.

About A400/EP0031

A400/EP0031 novel next-generation selective RET inhibitor for NSCLC, medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) and other solid tumors with a high prevalence of RET alterations. The NDA of A400/EP0031 has been accepted for review by the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) of China for the treatment of adult patients with RET-fusion positive locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. The Company is also conducting a Phase Ib/II clinical study in China for the treatment of RET-positive solid tumors.

In March 2021, the Company granted Ellipses Pharma Limited, a U.K.-based international oncology drug development company, an exclusive license to develop, manufacture and commercialize this agent outside Greater China and certain Asian countries. In April 2024, A400/EP0031 was cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to progress into a Phase II clinical trial (NCT05443126) which is currently recruiting in the United States, United Kingdom, Europe and United Arab Emirates, where it is being evaluated as a monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy in RET fusion positive NSCLC.

About SKB500

SKB500, a novel, proprietary ADC developed via the OptiDC platform, is designed to leverage specific target biology through a validated target combined with a differentiated payload-linker strategy. In preclinical investigations, SKB500 demonstrated a favorable therapeutic window with robust efficacy and manageable safety profiles across multiple advanced solid tumors.

Currently, a Phase II exploratory study of SKB500 in combination with immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy as first-line treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) is ongoing in China.

Case Report of Mabwell’s Nectin-4 targeting ADC (9MW2821) in Cervical Cancer Published in The New England Journal of Medicine

On April 21, 2026 Mabwell (688062.SH), an innovation-driven biopharmaceutical company with a fully integrated industrial chain, reported that a recent clinical case report on its self-developed novel Nectin-4 ADC (bulumtatug fuvedotin, R&D code: 9MW2821) for the treatment of cervical cancer has been published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM, Impact Factor: 78.5), a leading international medical journal.

The article, published by the team of Dr. Wang Shanbing, Director of the Oncology Center at the Second People’s Hospital of Yibin, reveals for the first time globally a rare case of hepatic "pseudoprogression" phenomenon observed in a patient with advanced cervical cancer following treatment with the novel Nectin-4 ADC (9MW2821). Pseudoprogression generally refers to a phenomenon where existing lesions temporarily enlarge or new lesions appear early in immunotherapy, without clinical deterioration, followed by subsequent stabilization or shrinkage—typically not representing true tumor progression.

This article reports the case of a patient with metastatic cervical squamous-cell carcinoma whose disease was refractory to platinum–taxane chemotherapy with no prior immunotherapy. After just two cycles of treatment with 9MW2821, the patient’s baseline metastatic lesions showed substantial regression, and serum squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) antigen levels dropped precipitously—from 37.0 ng/mL to 1.2 ng/mL (normal range ≤1.5). However, despite comprehensive improvement across multiple indicators, a CT scan unexpectedly revealed a "new hypoattenuating lesion " measuring 1.8 cm × 2.5 cm in the medial segment of the left lobe of the liver. A liver biopsy showed dense infiltration of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and neutrophils, with no evidence of granulomas, spindle cell proliferation, or viable tumor cells. The biopsy results ruled out disease progression, sarcoid-like reactions, or inflammatory pseudotumor. Given the patient’s p16-positive status (implying high HPV antigenicity) and the absence of previous immunotherapy, Dr. Wang Shanbing’s team hypothesized that the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeted occult micrometastases, inducing immune-cell death and releasing damage-associated molecular patterns that triggered this robust inflammatory influx. The patient continued treatment, and subsequent imaging showed gradual resolution of the liver lesion, with no reappearance during two years of follow-up.

ADCs are hailed as "magic bullets" for precisely targeting tumors. Previously, pseudoprogression has been predominantly observed in immunotherapies such as PD‑1/PD‑L1 inhibitors, whereas its occurrence in ADC therapy for solid tumors is considered exceedingly rare. This finding by Dr. Wang Shanbing’s team carries significant implications for the clinical management of advanced cervical cancer. The article strongly emphasizes that treatment that could prolong life should not be prematurely discontinued based solely on radiographic "false impressions," providing a valuable reference for the clinical application of ADCs and safeguarding optimal therapeutic benefits for oncology patients.

9MW2821 is the world’s first Nectin-4 ADC candidate to enter Phase III clinical trials for cervical cancer. Currently, enrollment for the monotherapy Phase III trial has been completed. Interim analysis is expected to be conducted and pre-NDA to be submitted in H2 2026. The first-line combination study with toripalimab is in Phase II.
