Previously in May 2025, Galmed announced that Aramchol significantly enhances Bayer’s regorafenib effect in GI cancer models to kill GI tumor cells. In that study, Aramchol enhanced both flux and autolysosome formation caused by Regorafenib, activating ATM and AMPK and inactivating mTORC1 and mTORC2 pathways. In addition, Regorafenib and Aramchol interacted to suppress tumor growth in hepatoma models without normal tissue toxicities. Today’s announced top line results include new data regarding the synergetic effects of Aramchol and Stivarga with Metformin. In this latest study, Aramchol demonstrated the mechanism of action of Aramchol’s anti-tumor abilities, alone or when combined with the mutli-kinase inhibitor regorafenib and the type 2 diabetes drug, Metformin, suggesting a synergistic effect and potential for fixed dose combination for treatment.

Allen Baharaff, President and CEO of Galmed Pharmaceuticals commented: "Stivarga (regorafenib) is indicated as standard-of-care third line treatment in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), as well as advanced, unresectable or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and hepatocellular carcinoma. Monoclonal antibodies (MABs), such as atezolizumab & bevacizumab, are the first-line therapy for these patients. However, it is estimated that since around 75% of patients develop resistance or intolerance to MABs and because of their high cost, the cost effectiveness is limited. Stivarga is Bayer’s top selling cancer drug, which generated €458 million (~$500 million) in the first nine months of 2022, up 28% from 2021. The main patent protection for regorafenib is expected to expire in August 2028 in Europe and July 2032 in the U.S., potentially resulting in generic versions of regorafenib becoming available, which could significantly affect Bayer’s market share. Based on the top-line results, a fixed dose combination with Aramchol has shown that such combination could potentially become a life-cycle IP strategy for regorafenib to help delay the generic competition." Mr. Baharaff continued "We are looking forward to initiating our Phase 1b study at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center, which is expected to commence in early 2026. This Phase 1b study will also serve as a proof-of-concept on Aramchol’s efficacy in an oncology clinical setting. Positive findings could lay the groundwork for subsequent accelerated clinical development of Aramchol in key three GI cancers, which if successful, could potentially expand Galmed’s pipeline and create value for investors and stakeholders."

On November 17, 2025 Genentech, a member of the Roche Group (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY), reported positive Phase III results from the lidERA Breast Cancer study evaluating investigational giredestrant as an adjuvant endocrine treatment for people with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, early-stage breast cancer. The study met its primary endpoint at a pre-planned interim analysis, showing a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in invasive disease-free survival with giredestrant versus standard-of-care endocrine therapy. lidERA is the first Phase III trial of a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) to demonstrate a significant benefit in the adjuvant setting. The majority of breast cancer cases are diagnosed at an early stage.

"Today’s results underscore the potential of giredestrant as a new endocrine therapy of choice for people with early-stage breast cancer, where there is a chance for cure," said Levi Garraway, M.D., Ph.D., Genentech’s chief medical officer and head of Global Product Development. "Given that ER-positive breast cancer accounts for approximately 70% of cases diagnosed, these findings – together with recent data in the advanced ER-positive setting – suggest that giredestrant has the potential to improve outcomes for many people with this disease."

Overall survival data were immature at the time of interim analysis, but a clear positive trend was observed. Giredestrant was well tolerated and adverse events were consistent with its known safety profile, with no unexpected safety findings observed. Data from lidERA will be presented at an upcoming medical meeting and shared with health authorities with the aim of bringing this potential treatment option to patients around the world.

ER-positive breast cancer accounts for approximately 70% of breast cancer cases. Currently, up to a third of people eventually experience recurrence on or after adjuvant endocrine therapy treatment for early-stage breast cancer. Additionally, many have to interrupt or stop treatment early due to safety or tolerability issues, thereby increasing the risk of death. These limitations underscore the need for more effective and better-tolerated options that can enhance adherence and prevent or delay disease recurrence.

lidERA is the second positive Phase III readout for giredestrant following evERA Breast Cancer, which was presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress 2025. The scientific rationale for lidERA was supported by prior results in the neoadjuvant setting, including the coopERA trial showing that giredestrant was superior to an aromatase inhibitor in reducing malignant cell division (Ki67 levels). This growing body of evidence supports the potential of giredestrant to meaningfully improve outcomes compared with standard-of-care endocrine therapy across ER-positive early-stage and advanced breast cancer.

Genentech’s extensive giredestrant clinical development program spans multiple treatment settings and lines of therapy, reflecting our commitment to deliver innovative medicines to as many people with ER-positive breast cancer as possible.

About the lidERA Breast Cancer study
lidERA Breast Cancer [NCT04961996] is a Phase III, randomized, open-label, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of giredestrant versus standard-of-care endocrine therapy in people with medium- or high-risk stage I-III estrogen receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative breast cancer. Over 4,100 patients were enrolled in the study.

The primary endpoint is invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) excluding unrelated cancers in other organs (second primary non-breast cancers). Key secondary endpoints include overall survival, iDFS including second primary non-breast cancers, disease-free survival and safety.

About estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer

Globally, the burden of breast cancer continues to grow, with 2.3 million women diagnosed and 670,000 dying from the disease every year. Breast cancer remains the number one cause of cancer-related deaths amongst women, and the second most common cancer type.

ER-positive breast cancer accounts for approximately 70% of breast cancer cases. A defining feature of ER-positive breast cancer is that its tumor cells have receptors that attach to estrogen, which can contribute to tumor growth.

Despite treatment advances, ER-positive breast cancer remains particularly challenging to treat due to its biological complexity. Patients often face the risk of disease progression, treatment side effects and resistance to endocrine therapy. There is an urgent need for more effective treatments that can delay clinical progression and reduce the burden of treatment on people’s lives.

About giredestrant
Giredestrant is an investigational, oral, potent next-generation selective estrogen receptor degrader and full antagonist.

Giredestrant is designed to block estrogen from binding to the estrogen receptor, triggering its breakdown (known as degradation) and stopping or slowing down the growth of cancer cells.

Giredestrant has an extensive clinical development program and is being investigated in five company-sponsored Phase III clinical trials that span multiple treatment settings and lines of therapy to benefit as many people as possible:

Giredestrant versus standard-of-care endocrine therapy (SoC ET) as adjuvant treatment in ER-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative early-stage breast cancer (lidERA Breast Cancer; NCT04961996)
Giredestrant plus everolimus versus SoC ET plus everolimus in ER-positive, HER2-negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (evERA Breast Cancer; NCT05306340)
Giredestrant plus palbociclib versus letrozole plus palbociclib in ER-positive, HER2-negative, endocrine-sensitive, recurrent locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (persevERA Breast Cancer; NCT04546009)
Giredestrant plus investigator’s choice of a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor versus fulvestrant plus a CDK 4/6 inhibitor in ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer resistant to adjuvant endocrine therapy (pionERA Breast Cancer; NCT06065748)
Giredestrant plus dual HER2 blockade versus dual HER2 blockade in ER-positive, HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (heredERA Breast Cancer; NCT05296798)

"In the last months, we have achieved significant clinical milestones and solidified Immatics’ position as the PRAME leader across two modalities, cell therapies and bispecifics," said Harpreet Singh, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Immatics. "With the recent data update and clinical proof-of-concept for our TCR Bispecifics pipeline, we’re entering the next exciting phase of bispecifics development while continuing to advance anzu-cel, our PRAME cell therapy, towards commercialization. At Immatics, our priority is the patients we serve, and every advancement in our clinical pipeline brings us closer to delivering meaningful and durable benefits to them through our innovative TCR-based therapeutics."

Third Quarter 2025 and Subsequent Company Progress

PRAME Franchise – Cell Therapy

Anzu-cel (IMA203) PRAME Cell Therapy – First Market Entry in Advanced Melanoma
Anzu-cel (anzutresgene autoleucel), previously called IMA203, is Immatics’ lead PRAME cell therapy and will be the Company’s first PRAME therapy to enter the market in advanced melanoma. The current addressable patient population for anzu-cel’s first target indications, second-line or later (2L) cutaneous melanoma, as well as metastatic uveal melanoma, includes ~9,000 patients2.

Phase 3 trial, SUPRAME, for anzu-cel (IMA203) in previously treated, advanced cutaneous melanoma

Immatics’ global, randomized, controlled, multi-center Phase 3 clinical trial, SUPRAME, is currently ongoing to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of anzu-cel PRAME cell therapy as monotherapy vs. investigator’s choice in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma who have received prior treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor.

SUPRAME is designed as a well-controlled clinical trial evaluating anzu-cel as a monotherapy in a late-stage cutaneous melanoma patient population and is intended to generate robust data to support regulatory approval of anzu-cel as Immatics advances this PRAME cell therapy towards the market.

Primary endpoint for seeking full approval is blinded independent central review ("BICR")-assessed (RECIST v1.1) progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), safety and patient-reported outcomes about quality of life.

Pre-specified interim and final data analyses will be triggered upon the occurrence of a defined number of events for PFS (progressive disease or death). Data from the interim analysis is not intended to be published to protect the integrity of the ongoing clinical trial.

The Company remains on track for planned BLA submission in 1H 2027 and launch of anzu-cel in 2H 2027. Given the event-driven nature of the clinical trial design and based on the clinical site activation timelines, the target number of clinical trial sites and the current strong enrollment rate, Immatics estimates that the interim and final analyses will occur in 2026.

Patient recruitment is currently ongoing in the US and Germany. The SUPRAME trial is planned to be conducted in more than 65 sites across North America and Europe, including the US, Germany, France, the Netherlands, the UK and Canada.

Phase 1b trial for anzu-cel (IMA203) PRAME cell therapy in patients with metastatic melanoma

A one-time infusion of anzu-cel PRAME cell therapy in all melanoma patients demonstrated favorable tolerability and promising clinical activity (Wermke et al., ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) 2025): cORR of 56%; mDOR of 12.1 months at mFU of 13.4 months; mPFS of 6.1 months; mOS of 15.9 months

Cutaneous melanoma subgroup, all post-checkpoint inhibitor, showed cORR of 50%, mDOR not reached at mFU of 16.7 months; mPFS of 6.0 months

Uveal melanoma subgroup, majority post-tebentafusp and checkpoint inhibitor, showed cORR of 67%, mDOR of 11.0 months at mFU of 13.4 months; mPFS of 8.5 months

Phase 1/2 trial for anzu-cel (IMA203) PRAME cell therapy in patients with uveal melanoma

On October 20, 2025, updated data from the Phase 1b trial of anzu-cel in a subgroup of 16 patients with metastatic uveal melanoma were presented by Sapna Patel, MD, at an oral presentation at the Presidential Symposium III at ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) 2025. A one-time infusion of anzu-cel PRAME cell therapy in the 16 patients with uveal metastatic melanoma demonstrated favorable tolerability and continued strong anti-tumor activity and durability: cORR of 67%, mDOR of 11.0 months, mPFS of 8.5 months and mOS not reached at 14.3 months mFU.

Based on the promising clinical data in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma, Immatics has initiated a Phase 2 cohort to treat approximately 30 uveal melanoma patients. The cohort is being conducted at select centers in the U.S. and Germany with deep expertise in uveal melanoma.

The consistent favorable tolerability, anti-tumor activity and pharmacokinetic profile of anzu-cel across both cutaneous and uveal melanoma provide a strong rationale for pursuing a parallel late-stage development strategy to serve both patient populations.

Anzu-cel has recently received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) from the U.S. FDA for the treatment of uveal melanoma.

Data on anzu-cel in advanced melanoma further substantiates Immatics’ global leadership in precision targeting of PRAME and the potential of anzu-cel to be the Company’s first PRAME product to enter the market.

IMA203CD8 PRAME Cell Therapy (GEN2) – Expansion to all Advanced PRAME Cancers
IMA203CD8 is the Company’s second-generation PRAME cell therapy product candidate being developed with the goal of expanding into all advanced PRAME cancers. Given its enhanced pharmacology profile, once the target dose is reached, the Company intends to pursue the clinical development of this product candidate with a tumor-agnostic approach, starting with gynecologic cancers.

Phase 1a dose escalation in solid tumors is ongoing to evaluate higher doses of IMA203CD8 with and without IL-2.

The next clinical trial update, which will report on the continued dose escalation in multiple PRAME cancers, including ovarian cancer, melanoma and synovial sarcoma treated at relevant doses, will be presented on December 11, 2025, by Antonia Busse, M.D., Charité-CBF, at the ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Immuno-Oncology Congress 2025 during a mini oral presentation.

PRAME Franchise – TCR Bispecifics

IMA402 PRAME Bispecific – Expansion to Earlier-Line PRAME Cancers

To expand the PRAME opportunity to earlier-line PRAME cancers, the Company is developing its off-the-shelf, next-generation, half-life extended TCR Bispecific, IMA402, as a monotherapy or in combination with standard of care, with a focus on melanoma and gynecologic cancers. In addition, Immatics is exploring the potential combination of IMA402 with IMA401 MAGEA4/8 Bispecific in squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC) and potentially other solid tumor indications.

On November 12, 2025, Immatics announced updated data from the Phase 1a dose escalation clinical trial evaluating IMA402 in heavily pre-treated patients with solid tumors.

The data showed clinical proof-of-concept of IMA402 with favorable tolerability across all doses, as well as deep and durable responses and early, promising PFS/iPFS and OS in patients treated within the RP2D range.

Across all indications at RP2D range a 30% (6/20) cORR was observed, including 29% cORR (4/14) in melanoma and 2/3 confirmed responses in ovarian carcinoma.

Based on the promising Phase 1a dose escalation data, Immatics is advancing its IMA402 PRAME Bispecific into Phase 1b dose expansion at two distinct doses to determine the final RP2D, both as a monotherapy and in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor with a focus on melanoma and gynecologic cancers in 2026.

Depending on the outcomes of these Phase 1b cohorts, the Company would seek to convert existing Phase 1b cohorts into Phase 2 trials, which have the potential to become registration-directed.

As part of its strategy to maximize the IMA402 opportunity, the Company is also exploring the option to initiate additional Phase 1b cohorts in 2026 to determine the monotherapy and combination potential of IMA402 with immune checkpoint inhibitors and standard of care in late as well as earlier treatment lines.

As an additional opportunity, the Company is exploring the potential combination of IMA402 with IMA401 MAGEA4/8 in squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC) and potentially other solid tumor indications.

IMA401 MAGEA4/8 Bispecific – Maximizing the Potential of Bispecifics Combinations
IMA401 is the Company’s off-the-shelf, next-generation, half-life extended TCR Bispecific targeting MAGEA4/8. Consistent with Immatics’ focus on advancing its PRAME Franchise, the Company is exploring IMA401 in combination with IMA402, starting with squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC). This opportunity with potentially synergistic clinical activity has the potential to address >90% of patients with sqNSCLC.

On November 12, 2025, Immatics announced updated dose escalation data from the Phase 1a clinical trial evaluating IMA401 with or without an immune checkpoint inhibitor (pembrolizumab) in heavily pre-treated patients with solid tumors.

The data showed clinical proof-of-concept with favorable tolerability at RP2D as well as promising clinical activity in patients in three focus indications treated with ≥1 mg: 25% cORR (2/8) in head and neck cancer, 29% cORR (2/7) in melanoma and promising clinical activity in sqNSCLC.

Based on the clinical proof-of-concept of both bispecific candidates, including the initial promising activity of IMA401 in head and neck cancer and sqNSCLC, Immatics is well-positioned to assess the synergistic potential of combining two different bispecifics, IMA402 targeting PRAME and IMA401 targeting MAGEA4/8, with and without a checkpoint inhibitor.

As over 90% of patients with sqNSCLC are positive for PRAME and/or MAGEA4/8, a potential IMA402 and IMA401 combination treatment could provide broad treatment coverage for this patient population. Approximately 60% of patients with sqNSCLC are positive for both targets, which could boost anti-tumor activity and counteract potential tumor escape mechanisms. The current addressable patient population for metastatic sqNSCLC in the United States and EU5 is an estimated 40,000 patients per year.

The collaboration aims to leverage Labcorp’s extensive clinical and pathology expertise alongside Lunit’s cutting-edge AI algorithms to transform how tumor microenvironments are analyzed and interpreted. By combining high-resolution whole-slide imaging with AI-powered spatial profiling, the collaboration seeks to generate new insights that can enhance biomarker discovery and guide precision immuno-oncology strategies.

First Collaborative Studies Presented at SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) and AMP

The first outcome of the collaboration was showcased at two leading scientific conferences:

Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) (Free SITC Whitepaper): Study demonstrated how AI-based spatial profiling and machine learning can identify immune-active subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors with the MET exon 14 skipping mutation, which are associated with improved immunotherapy outcomes. Using Lunit SCOPE IO, researchers analyzed more than 370 pathology slides to characterize immune phenotypes across different types of MET alterations, including exon 14 skipping, amplification, or no mutation (wildtype). Immune gene expression analysis further validated the AI-defined immune phenotypes and revealed key immune response pathways driving the inflamed phenotype, underscoring the predictive power of AI-based spatial profiling in MET-mutated NSCLC.
Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP): Study highlighted distinct tumor-immune microenvironments linked to different MET alterations in NSCLC, revealing immune-desert phenotypes in MET-amplified tumors, and inflamed phenotypes in those with MET exon 14 skipping tumors.
"Collaborating with Labcorp, one of the most respected leaders in diagnostics and clinical research, marks an important step toward expanding the real-world use of AI in oncology. These early studies show how AI can reveal meaningful, predictive biomarkers hidden within pathology slides," said Brandon Suh, CEO of Lunit. "It’s a clear example of how digital pathology and AI can work hand in hand to advance precision oncology understanding, bridging discovery research and real-world clinical care."

"Our collaboration with Lunit aims to turn complex pathology data into meaningful insights," said Shakti Ramkissoon, M.D., Ph.D., MBA, vice president and medical lead for oncology at Labcorp. "These studies demonstrate how AI-powered digital pathology can reveal patterns within tumors—ultimately helping to guide treatment decisions, inform biomarker development, and pave the way for more personalized cancer care."

Labcorp and Lunit plan to further broaden their collaboration by applying digital pathology AI to additional cancer types and genomic correlations.
