"2026 has the promise to be a transformative year for Karyopharm and the patient communities that we intend to serve, with top-line data from our Phase 3 SENTRY trial in myelofibrosis expected in March. Positive data from our SENTRY trial could unlock our opportunity to improve patient outcomes and redefine the standard-of-care in myelofibrosis. Our teams are actively preparing for regulatory filings, commercialization and the opportunity to rapidly launch with the first ever combination therapy in a multi-billion dollar market," said Richard Paulson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Karyopharm. "In endometrial cancer, we remain focused and on track to report top-line data from our Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial in mid-2026, representing a significant opportunity to transform patient outcomes in a targeted, biomarker driven patient population. With two high-potential data readouts this year, 2026 is expected to be a catalyst-rich year that could position us for tremendous long-term value creation."

Key Program Highlights in 2025

Selinexor in Multiple Myeloma

Demand for XPOVIO was consistent in 2025 versus 2024 in the increasingly competitive multiple myeloma marketplace, with the community setting continuing to drive approximately 60% of overall net product revenue.

Global patient access for selinexor expanded in 2025, with favorable reimbursement decisions in Spain and China, and additional regulatory approvals in multiple countries where selinexor is now approved in more than 50 countries.
Selinexor in Myelofibrosis

Completed enrollment of the Phase 3 SENTRY trial (XPORT-MF-034; NCT04562389) with 353 patients in early September 2025. SENTRY is evaluating 60 mg once-weekly selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib compared to ruxolitinib plus placebo. The preliminary baseline characteristics for patients enrolled in SENTRY as presented at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) 2025 Annual Meeting (n=320) are representative of the intended patient population. In addition, preliminary blinded aggregate safety data from the first 61 patients with a median follow-up of greater than 12 months may suggest improvements in both hematologic and non-hematologic treatment emergent adverse events as compared to the Phase 1 data evaluating selinexor 60 mg weekly in combination with standard of care ruxolitinib in JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients, as well as historical ruxolitinib monotherapy data. The Company cautions that preliminary baseline characteristics and preliminary blinded aggregate safety data from the Phase 3 SENTRY trial may not ultimately be reflective of the actual trial results.

Presented data from the XPORT-MF-035 (NCT04562870) Phase 2, randomized, open-label trial of selinexor versus physician’s-choice in hard-to-treat patients with heavily pretreated myelofibrosis (n=24) at the European Hematology Association (EHA) (Free EHA Whitepaper) 2025 Congress. The data suggest the potential for single-agent clinical activity with selinexor, including spleen volume reduction, symptom improvement, hemoglobin stabilization, reduced transfusion burden, and evidence of disease modification.
Selinexor in Endometrial Cancer

Modified the design of the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 (NCT05611931) trial to: a) focus enrollment on patients with either: i) proficient mismatch repair status (pMMR) tumors; or ii) patients with deficient mismatch repair status (dMMR) tumors who are medically ineligible for checkpoint inhibitors; b) introduce a new modified intent-to-treat (ITT) population of approximately 220 patients comprised of this focused population; and, c) increase the ITT sample size to approximately 276 patients.

Enrollment continues in the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial evaluating selinexor as a maintenance-only therapy following systemic therapy versus placebo in patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
Corporate and Financial Highlights for 2025

Based on preliminary unaudited financial information, the Company expects total revenue, which includes license and royalty revenue from partners, to be approximately $33 million for the fourth quarter 2025 and approximately $145 million for the full year 2025, and U.S. XPOVIO net product revenue to be approximately $32 million for the fourth quarter 2025 and approximately $115 million for the full year 2025.

Completed strategic financing transactions that extended cash runway beyond the expected top-line readout of the Phase 3 SENTRY trial in myelofibrosis.

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments as of December 31, 2025 were approximately $64 million. The Company expects its existing liquidity, including the revenue it expects to generate from XPOVIO net product sales and its license agreements, will be sufficient to fund its planned operations into the second quarter of 2026.
The financial information presented in this press release may be adjusted as a result of the completion of customary annual review and audit procedures.

Anticipated Catalysts and Operational Objectives in 2026

Myelofibrosis

Top-line data from the Phase 3 SENTRY trial is expected in March 2026.

The Company expects to report top-line data from all patients in the 60 mg cohort of the Phase 2 SENTRY-2 trial with at least 24 weeks of follow-up in the second half of 2026.
Endometrial Cancer

Top-line data from the event-driven, Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial is expected in mid-2026. The Company continues to enroll patients into the XPORT-EC-042 trial of selinexor as a maintenance monotherapy for patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
Multiple Myeloma

Maintain the Company’s commercial foundation in the increasingly competitive multiple myeloma marketplace and drive increased XPOVIO revenues.

Continue to support global launches by our partners following regulatory and reimbursement approvals for selinexor in ex-U.S. territories.

Continue to follow patients that are enrolled in the Phase 3 XPORT-MM-031 (EMN29) trial. The Company expects to report top-line data from this event-driven trial in the second half of 2026.
Corporate Presentation

Karyopharm will be posting an updated corporate overview presentation on its website today. The presentation will be accessible under "Events & Presentations" in the Investor section of the Company’s website, View Source

About the Phase 3 SENTRY Trial

SENTRY (XPORT-MF-034; NCT04562389) is a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating a once-weekly dose of 60 mg of selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib compared to placebo plus ruxolitinib in JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients with platelet counts >100 x 109/L. Patients are randomized 2-to-1 to the selinexor arm. The co-primary endpoints for this trial are spleen volume reduction ≥ 35% (SVR35) at week 24 and the average change in absolute total symptom score (Abs-TSS) over 24 weeks relative to baseline.

About Myelofibrosis

Myelofibrosis is a rare blood cancer that affects approximately 20,000 patients in the United States and 17,000 patients in the European Union1. The disease causes bone marrow fibrosis (scarring in the bone marrow), which makes it difficult for the bone marrow to make healthy blood cells, splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), progressive anemia which often leads to symptoms like fatigue and weakness, and other disease associated symptoms including abdominal discomfort, pain under the left ribs, early satiety, night sweats and bone pain. The only approved class of therapies to treat myelofibrosis are JAK inhibitors, including ruxolitinib. Patients treated with the most commonly prescribed JAK inhibitor often require blood transfusions, and more than 30% will discontinue treatment due to anemia.2 Anemia and transfusion dependence are correlated with poor prognosis and shortened survival.3

About the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 Trial

EC-042 (XPORT-EC-042; NCT05611931) is a global, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind clinical trial evaluating selinexor as a maintenance therapy following systemic therapy in patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. The EC-042 trial is expected to enroll approximately 276 patients who will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a 60 mg, once-weekly, administration of oral selinexor or placebo until disease progression. The trial includes two patient populations, for which, the primary endpoint of progression free survival will be tested sequentially and the key secondary endpoint of overall survival will be evaluated: 1) a modified intent to treat population (mITT) that will include patients with either, a) TP53 wild-type tumors with proficient mismatch repair status (pMMR); or, b) TP53 wild-type tumors with deficient mismatch repair status (dMMR), who are medically ineligible to receive checkpoint inhibitors; and, 2) the trial’s original intent to treat (ITT) population, which will include all patients enrolled in the trial whose tumors are TP53 wild-type, regardless of MMR status. The mITT population is expected to include approximately 220 patients. In connection with the EC-042 trial, Karyopharm entered into a global collaboration with Foundation Medicine, Inc. to develop FoundationOneCDx, a tissue-based comprehensive genomic profiling test to identify and enroll patients whose tumors are TP53 wild-type.

About Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy in the U.S.1 In 2025, approximately 69,120 uterine cancers (predominantly endometrial) are expected to be diagnosed, with 13,860 deaths.1 In 2022, there were about 420,368 cases with 97,723 deaths worldwide.2 Both incidence and mortality have continued to rise.3,4 Key risk factors include obesity, type 2 diabetes, high-fat diets, tamoxifen or oral estrogen use, and delayed menopause.5 TP53 is a well-recognized prognostic marker for EC; >50% of advanced or recurrent EC tumors are TP53wt (gene for tumor protein P53; wild-type), and ~40%-55% are both TP53wt and mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR).6-8 While immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown benefit in patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) and pMMR, the magnitude of benefit is greater for patients with dMMR tumors versus pMMR tumors.9-10 There remains an unmet need for targeted therapies for patients with pMMR EC.

About XPOVIO (selinexor)

XPOVIO is a first-in-class, oral exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor and the first of Karyopharm’s Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compounds for the treatment of cancer. XPOVIO functions by selectively binding to and inhibiting the nuclear export protein XPO1. XPOVIO is approved in the U.S. and marketed by Karyopharm in multiple oncology indications, including: (i) in combination with VELCADE (bortezomib) and dexamethasone (XVd) in adult patients with multiple myeloma after at least one prior therapy; (ii) in combination with dexamethasone in adult patients with heavily pre-treated multiple myeloma; and (iii) under accelerated approval in adult patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), including DLBCL arising from follicular lymphoma, after at least two lines of systemic therapy. XPOVIO (also known as NEXPOVIO in certain countries) has received regulatory approvals in various indications in a growing number of ex-U.S. territories and countries, including but not limited to the European Union, the United Kingdom, Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, South Korea, Singapore, Israel, and Canada. XPOVIO/NEXPOVIO is marketed in these respective ex-U.S. territories by Karyopharm’s partners: Antengene, Menarini, Neopharm, and FORUS. Selinexor is also being investigated in several other mid- and late-stage clinical trials across multiple high unmet need cancer indications, including in myelofibrosis and endometrial cancer.

IN8bio Presents Updated Phase I/II Data Demonstrating Meaningful and Durable Survival Improvements in Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

On January 12, 2026 IN8bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: INAB), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative gamma-delta (γδ ) T cell therapies for cancer and autoimmune diseases, reported updated clinical data from its INB-200 Phase 1 and INB-400 Phase 2 trials in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM). The prior results were presented at the 2025 Society for Neuro-Oncology (SNO) Annual Meeting. The data continue to demonstrate meaningful and durable improvements in progression-free survival when compared with both historical standard-of-care (SOC) Stupp protocol data and concurrently enrolled SOC treated patients.

Patients in both the Phase 1 and 2 who received repeated doses of the Company’s investigational therapy, DeltEx Drug-Resistant Immunotherapy gamma-delta (γδ) T cells (DeltEx DRI) (N=14), experienced substantial improvements in both median progression-free (mPFS) and median overall survival (mOS) across multiple clinical centers. This data is put into greater context compared to contemporaneously enrolled patients treated only with SOC at the same clinical trial sites (N=10), forming a concurrently treated control cohort:

Median progression-free survival (mPFS): DeltEx DRI 13.0 months vs. 6.6 months with SOC (a +97% improvement).
Median overall survival (mOS): DeltEx DRI, not yet reached, currently 17.2+ months and rising, compared with 13.2 months (final mOS) for SOC.
Durability: DeltEx DRI, eight of fourteen patients (57%) remained progression-free longer than their expected overall survival (OS) based on age and MGMT status (a biomarker used to stratify GBM patients and impacting response to chemotherapy), compared with just a single patient (10%) in the control group.
Long-term benefit: Several DeltEx DRI treated patients remain progression-free beyond two years without experiencing any significant DRI related SAEs or DLTs.
William Ho, CEO and Co-founder of IN8bio, commented, "GBM is an extremely aggressive and devastating brain cancer, with a short median survival of only ~12 months and no meaningful innovation in over twenty years. The contrast between our repeat-dose DeltEx DRI patients and the SOC controls treated at the same centers demonstrates a profound improvement. The increase in mPFS, particularly in the newly diagnosed GBM setting, is meaningful time for these patients. The durability of these mPFS results, combined with a well-tolerated safety profile, underscore the potential of our γδ T cell therapy to meaningfully improve newly diagnosed GBM treatment and patient outcomes."

For the first time, IN8bio presented data from a control group of patients that were contemporaneously enrolled and treated only with the SOC protocols at the same clinical centers with the same treating physicians as the DeltEx DRI cohorts. The SOC control patients performed in-line with expectations based on historical GBM mPFS of 6.9 months, despite a greater number of patients receiving gross total resections. This demonstrates both the aggressive nature of GBM, even with SOC treatment, and the significant need for new treatment options. The funds received from IN8bio’s recent financing announced late in 2025 will support further discussions with the FDA on potential clinical pathways, including any potential for accelerated approval.

Across both Phase 1, INB-200, and Phase 2, INB-400, trials at multiple centers, DeltEx DRI γδ T cells continued to demonstrate a well-tolerated safety profile, with:

No DLTs
No cytokine release syndrome (CRS)
No immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity (ICANS)
No unexpected infections or SAEs
Kate Rochlin, PhD, Chief Operating Officer, IN8bio, added, "These results show a consistent biological and clinical story. In the DeltEx DRI treated patients, we observed persistent and elevated levels of γδ T cells in circulation, immune cell infiltration within the tumors, and broader systemic immune activation. This is significant in understanding the immune impact in patients treated with this therapy, particularly in a setting traditionally considered a "cold" tumor combined with long-term lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Furthermore, these findings indicate that localized intracranial delivery of DeltEx DRI can drive systemic immune responses, an aspect that could be important in fighting GBM. This is a disease marked by profound treatment-induced lymphodepletion, rapid progression, and poor outcomes.

The data presented at SNO was the first time IN8bio had presented multi-center DeltEx treated and control SOC patient data from the both 1 and Phase 2 trials. Across all sites, early trends in mPFS and mOS were consistent with the original INB-200 trial, reinforcing:

Reproducibility across clinical centers
Scalability of the repeated-dose approach
A strong foundation for further development

"Our priorities for 2026 are clear – driving RYTELO commercial growth in the U.S., pursuing paths to bring RYTELO to LR-MDS markets outside the U.S., and advancing our Phase 3 IMpactMF trial," said Harout Semerjian, President and Chief Executive Officer of Geron. "These priorities are supported by a focused commercial strategy, an expanding body of RYTELO scientific evidence and real-world experience, and a streamlined and energized Geron team. Together, these strengths are designed to drive deeper engagement across the hematology community and reinforce our conviction that we can deliver for eligible LR-MDS patients and build Geron into a leading, sustainable hematology company."

"Our 2026 financial guidance reflects expected top-line growth alongside an anticipated reduction in operating spend year over year, reinforcing the strength of our balance sheet," said Michelle Robertson, Chief Financial Officer. "We expect RYTELO net revenue growth to be driven by more focused HCP and patient targeting, with stronger performance in the second half of the year. Our anticipated 2026 total operating expense base reflects our recent strategic restructuring and is expected to support continued investment in RYTELO commercial strategy and clinical development priorities."

2026 Financial Guidance

RYTELO net product revenue expected in the range of $220 million to $240 million.
Total operating expenses expected in the range of $230 million to $240 million.

Business Highlights

Expanded the scientific body of evidence supporting the potential of RYTELO (imetelsat), a first-in-class telomerase inhibitor, in lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes/Neoplasms (LR-MDS) at the 2025 American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, with an oral and poster presentations of new analyses from the Phase 3 IMerge trial reinforcing RYTELO as a differentiated treatment option.
Implemented a strategic restructuring plan, from a position of strength, designed to streamline the Company and support the RYTELO commercial strategy and opportunistic innovation to create long-term value for patients and shareholders.
Announced a first amendment to the existing 5-year senior secured term loan facility agreement with investment funds managed by Pharmakon Advisors, LP to extend the outside date for requesting the Tranche B Loan (an aggregate principal amount of $75 million) and the Tranche C Loan (an aggregate principal amount of $50 million, available upon reaching a specified trailing twelve-month RYTELO revenue milestone), from December 31, 2025 to July 30, 2026.

About RYTELO (imetelstat)
RYTELO is an oligonucleotide telomerase inhibitor approved in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with LR-MDS with transfusion-dependent anemia requiring four or more red blood cell units over eight weeks who have not responded to or have lost response to or are ineligible for erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). It is indicated to be administered as an intravenous infusion over two hours every four weeks.

In addition, RYTELO is approved in the European Union as a monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with transfusion-dependent anemia due to very low, low or intermediate risk myelodysplastic syndromes without an isolated deletion 5q cytogenetic (non-del 5q) abnormality and who had an unsatisfactory response to or are ineligible for erythropoietin-based therapy.

RYTELO is a first-in-class treatment that works by inhibiting telomerase enzymatic activity. Telomeres are protective caps at the end of chromosomes that naturally shorten each time a cell divides. In LR-MDS, abnormal bone marrow cells often express the enzyme telomerase, which rebuilds those telomeres, allowing for uncontrolled cell division. Developed and exclusively owned by Geron, RYTELO is the first and only telomerase inhibitor approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Commission.
