"We have continued to make solid progress across our priority clinical assets during the first quarter. We are approaching completion of enrollment in the Phase 1 dose escalation and backfill cohorts for IPH4502. In parallel, we have advanced the negotiations for non-dilutive financing options to allow initiation of the lacutamab confirmatory Phase 3 TELLOMAK-3 trial in CTCL. Finally, the Phase 3 PACIFIC-9 trial with AstraZeneca is planned for data readout in the second half of 2026. Separately, we were pleased to see encouraging results from the MATISSE Phase 2 trial presented at the AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) Annual Meeting 2026. It is exciting to see the continued advancement of our differentiated immunotherapy pipeline for patients with high unmet medical need," said Jonathan Dickinson, Chief Executive Officer of Innate Pharma.

1 Including short term investments (€4.9m) and non-current financial instruments (€10.4m).

Pipeline highlights:

Lacutamab (anti-KIR3DL2 antibody):

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma

The planned confirmatory Phase 3 TELLOMAK-3 trial is an open-label, multi-center, randomized, comparative study evaluating lacutamab in patients with Sézary syndrome and mycosis fungoides, who have failed at least one prior systemic therapy.
TELLOMAK-3 includes two cohorts: a confirmatory cohort in Sézary syndrome, intended to support a potential accelerated approval based on existing TELLOMAK Phase 2 data, and a registrational cohort in mycosis fungoides, intended to support full approval. The primary endpoint of the study for both cohorts is progression-free survival (PFS) evaluated by blinded central review.
Following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review of the Phase 3 protocol, with no further comments in November 2025, the trial is planned for initiation in H2 2026.
The FDA provided encouraging feedback on the TELLOMAK Phase 2 results and the proposed regulatory pathway, which may support an accelerated approval in Sézary syndrome once the Phase 3 trial is underway. In February 2025, the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to lacutamab for relapsed or refractory Sézary syndrome.
The TELLOMAK Phase 2 trial is completed, and patients still on treatment at the end of the study continue to receive lacutamab through a Post Trial Access program.
An abstract authored by ZS Associates entitled "Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma Epidemiology in the United States: A Real-World Data Analysis of Administrative Claims" has been accepted for publication in the official Abstract Book of the European Hematology Association (EHA) (Free EHA Whitepaper) Congress 2026. The analysis, sponsored by Innate, reports approximately 12,400 prevalent patients with mycosis fungoides (MF) and 1,100 with Sézary syndrome (SS), with ~2,900 and ~300 new cases per year, respectively.
Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma (PTCL)

KILT (anti-KIR in T-Cell Lymphoma) Phase 2 trial, an investigator-sponsored, randomized study led by the Lymphoma Study Association (LYSA) evaluating lacutamab in combination with GEMOX (gemcitabine and oxaliplatin) versus GEMOX alone in patients with KIR3DL2-expressing relapsed/refractory PTCL, is ongoing.
IPH4502 (Nectin-4 exatecan ADC):

The IPH4502-101 Phase 1 study (NCT06781983), recruiting in France and in the United States, is evaluating the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of IPH4502 in advanced solid tumors known to express Nectin-4, including but not limited to urothelial carcinoma, non-small cell lung, breast, ovarian, gastric, esophageal, and colorectal cancers.
The maximum tolerated dose has been reached and enrollment in the Phase 1 dose escalation and cohort enrichment is nearing completion. Preliminary anti-tumor activity continues to be observed in heavily pre-treated patients with advanced solid tumors, including in patients with urothelial cancer relapsed or refractory to enfortumab vedotin, with a favorable safety profile to date.
Monalizumab (anti-NKG2A antibody), developed in collaboration with AstraZeneca:

The PACIFIC-9 Phase 3 trial run by AstraZeneca evaluating durvalumab (anti-PD‑L1) in combination with monalizumab or AstraZeneca’s oleclumab (anti-CD73) in patients with unresectable, Stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not progressed following platinum-based chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is ongoing. Enrollment in the trial is complete, and data readout is expected in H2 2026.
Other Clinical stage assets

IPH5201 (anti-CD39 antibody, developed in collaboration with AstraZeneca): The MATISSE Phase 2 trial is evaluating IPH5201 in combination with durvalumab and platinum-based chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant lung cancer setting.

Interim results from MATISSE Phase 2 were presented in a Clinical Trials Plenary Session at the AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) Annual Meeting 2026 on April 21, 2026 in San Diego, by Pr. Fabrice Barlesi (Institut Gustave Roussy). The pre-planned interim analysis was conducted on 40 patients with resectable early-stage (stage II–IIIA) NSCLC treated with perioperative IPH5201 in combination with durvalumab and platinum-based chemotherapy. The combination showed encouraging results with overall pathological complete response (pCR) rate of 27.5% (95% CI: 14.6–43.9). pCR rates were notably higher in patients with PD-L1-positive tumors, reaching 35.7% in PD-L1 ≥1% patients (n=28%) and 50.0% in PD‑L1 ≥50% patients (n=14). Higher baseline tumor CD39+ and CD8+ cell density was observed in patients achieving pCR/mPR, suggesting CD39 expression as a potentially emerging biomarker. The safety profile was comparable to that of preoperative platinum-based chemotherapy with durvalumab. Based on these encouraging results, the MATISSE study continues enrollment in the PD-L1 ≥1% patient population.
IPH5301 (anti-CD73, proprietary): The investigator-sponsored CHANCES Phase 1 trial of IPH5301 with Institut Paoli-Calmettes is ongoing.

IPH6101 (ANKET anti-CD123, proprietary): Innate has initiated a research collaboration to further assess next steps of development.

IPH6401/SAR’514 (ANKET anti-BCMA, partnered with Sanofi): During the first quarter, Sanofi announced deprioritization of SAR’514, a trifunctional anti-BCMA NK-cell engager. Sanofi retains exclusive development and commercialization rights, and the license terms remain unchanged.

Corporate Update:

As previously announced, in line with its strategic focus, the Company has streamlined its organization. Planned layoffs were implemented through a redundancy plan which is completed.
As of March 31, 2026, the balance available under our April 2023 sales agreement under the At-The-Market program remains at $75 million.
Financial highlights for Q1 2026:

Cash, cash equivalents and financial assets of the Company amounted to €25.4 million as of March 31, 2026. At the same date, financial liabilities amounted to €20.3 million.

Revenue for the three-month period ending March 31, 2026, amounted to €2.6 million (€1.2 million for the same period in 2025). Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements mainly resulted from the partial or entire recognition of the proceeds received pursuant to the agreements with AstraZeneca and Sanofi.

"Adicet is approaching a key inflection point as we prepare to report Phase 1 data for prula-cel in mid-year 2026, including data from at least 20 LN and SLE patients with a minimum of six months of follow-up," said Chen Schor, President and Chief Executive Officer of Adicet Bio. "Reaching this important inflection point builds on the collaboration of our employees and a global network of investigators and clinical sites advancing a comprehensive Phase 1 trial of a potential first-in-class gamma delta 1 CAR-T cell therapy in autoimmune diseases."

Mr. Schor continued, "In parallel, we are continuing to build our portfolio with ADI-212, a gene-edited and armored product candidate designed to enhance clinical activity in solid tumors and deliver multiple anti-tumor mechanisms of action to the tumor microenvironment. We are also advancing our ongoing preclinical programs and activities focused on a differentiated in vivo CAR-T platform targeting heme malignancies."

First Quarter 2026 and Recent Operational Highlights:

Autoimmune diseases

Phase 1 prula-cel clinical update in LN and SLE patients anticipated in mid-2026. The Company plans to provide its next clinical update in mid-2026 for its ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating prula-cel across multiple autoimmune conditions. Adicet also intends to meet with the FDA in the second quarter of 2026 to inform potential pivotal trial design. Subject to regulatory clearance to proceed, the Company expects to initiate start up activities for a pivotal program in LN or LN and SLE patients in the second half of 2026. In addition, following alignment with the FDA in November 2025, LN and SLE patients in the ongoing Phase 1 study and future studies may be dosed with prula-cel in the outpatient setting. The Company plans to provide a clinical update in patients with systemic sclerosis in the second half of 2026.
Ongoing Phase 1 trial of prula-cel in treatment-refractory rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to assess reduced conditioning regimens. The Phase 1 trial of prula-cel in RA is designed to assess two lymphodepletion approaches, cyclophosphamide alone and in combination with fludarabine. Primary objectives include evaluating safety and tolerability, with secondary assessments focused on cellular kinetics, pharmacodynamic markers, and disease activity measures. The next update on this trial is expected in the second half of 2026.
Solid tumor indications

Regulatory submission for ADI-212 planned for the third quarter of 2026 with Phase 1 start anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026 pending regulatory clearance. Adicet continues to advance its next-generation gene-edited, armored cell therapy candidate targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). ADI-212 is engineered to express a novel CAR binder designed to support enhanced tolerability and tumor specific recognition. It integrates membrane tethered IL-12 armoring, and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated disruption of subunit 12 (MED12) to enhance potency in solid tumors and deliver multiple anti-tumor mechanisms of action within the tumor microenvironment. Adicet expects to submit a regulatory filing for ADI-212 for the treatment of mCRPC in the third quarter of 2026, with initiation of Phase 1 enrollment anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory clearance.
Additional early-stage programs (CAR and other technologies)

Advancing innovation through a differentiated cell therapy platform. Adicet’s pipeline also includes additional early-stage gamma delta CAR-T cell therapy programs for autoimmune diseases, hematological malignancies and solid tumors. Additionally, Adicet has ongoing preclinical programs and activities focused on a differentiated in vivo CAR-T platform targeting heme malignancies.
Financial Results for First Quarter 2026:

Three months ended March 31, 2026

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $17.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $22.8 million during the same period in 2025. The decrease in R&D expenses was primarily due to a $3.6 million decrease in payroll and personnel expenses due to lower headcount, a $1.4 million decrease in expenses related to lab supplies and materials, a $0.5 million decrease related to lower CRO expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in allocated facility-related expenses. The decrease was partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in professional fees.
General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $7.1 million during the same period in 2025. The decrease in G&A expenses was due to a $1.4 million decrease in payroll and personnel-related expenses primarily due to a decrease in stock-based compensation and lower headcount, a $1.0 million decrease in allocated facility-related expenses and a $0.6 million decrease in professional fees.
Net Loss: Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $20.2 million, or a net loss of $1.88 per basic and diluted share, including non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1.3 million, as compared to a net loss of $28.2 million, or a net loss of $4.96 per basic and diluted share, including non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $3.2 million during the same period in 2025.
Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $137.6 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $158.5 million as of December 31, 2025. The Company expects that current cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2026, will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses into the second half of 2027.

The Zydus Offer of $23.50 per share in cash represents a 30.6% premium to the $18.00 per share all-cash transaction with Garda announced on April 8, 2026, a 7.8% premium to the $21.80 per share all-cash transaction with Garda announced on May 4, 2026, and a 75.8% premium to the Company’s unaffected closing stock price on March 20, 2026 – the day before significant share price and trading volume movement.

In making its determination that the Zydus Offer represented a Superior Proposal, the Board considered Zydus’ strong execution profile, including that the Zydus Offer has no financing contingencies, requires no third-party financing, and is fully guaranteed by a creditworthy Zydus entity, providing Assertio with direct recourse in the event of a breach or failure to close.

Heather Mason, Chair of the Assertio Board of Directors, stated: "We are pleased that the comprehensive and disciplined strategic review process undertaken by the Board has yielded this outcome. After carefully evaluating all relevant factors, including price, certainty of value, execution risk and overall transaction terms, the Board determined that the Zydus offer represents the best path available to Assertio shareholders. I want to thank everyone involved for their continued dedication throughout this process."

Transaction Overview

Under the terms of the Zydus Transaction, Zydus will promptly commence a tender offer to acquire all outstanding shares of Assertio common stock for $23.50 per share in cash, without interest, representing total cash consideration of approximately $166.4 million. The Board unanimously recommends that Assertio stockholders tender their shares into the Zydus Transaction.

The Zydus Transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including the tender of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares. No regulatory approvals are expected to be required.
