(Nasdaq: CTMX), a leader in the field of masked, conditionally activated biologics, today reported third quarter 2024 financial results and provided a business update. “We are encouraged by the progress during Q3 across our clinical pipeline including the ongoing Phase 1a evaluation of CX-904 and robust early enrollment for the CX-2051 Phase 1 study in colorectal cancer,” said Sean McCarthy, D.Phil., chief executive officer and chairman of CytomX. “We continue to explore the optimal dose and schedule for CX-904 to enable potential initiation of tumor-specific Phase 1b cohorts in 2025. Regarding CX-2051, our successful continued escalation to higher dose levels reflects the favorable tolerability profile observed to date for this first in class antibody drug conjugate directed against EpCAM, a very high potential but previously undruggable target expressed in many cancer types. We are also thrilled to have treated the first patient in the Phase 1 study of CX-801, reinforcing the multi-modality breadth of the PROBODY® therapeutic platform and our ongoing commitment to addressing as many areas of unmet need as we can with our technology,” continued Dr. McCarthy. Third Quarter Business Highlights and Recent Developments Pipeline CX-904, PROBODY® T-cell-engager (TCE) targeted to EGFRxCD3; Phase 1a dose escalation and optimization continue. Preliminary data from 35 patients were presented on May 8, 2024, based on a data cutoff of April 16, 2024, including non-step and step dosing cohorts up to a target dose of 10 mg.CX-904 has now cleared the 15 mg target dose level, utilizing a step-dose schedule. Dose escalation and optimization continue in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and non-small cell lung cancer. A maximum tolerated dose for step-dosing has not yet been reached.Potential Phase 1b initiation in one or more tumor types is anticipated in 2025 pending the selection of an optimized dose and schedule and alignment with our global development partner, Amgen. CX-2051, a first in class EpCAM-directed PROBODY® antibody drug conjugate; Phase 1a dose escalation continues. The Phase 1 study of CX-2051 was initiated in Q2 2024 and is currently focused in metastatic colorectal cancer, one of many tumor types in which high expression of EpCAM has been documented. EpCAM expression levels in the Phase 1 study are being assessed retrospectively and are anticipated to be high in the majority of CRC patients.The CX-2051 payload, a next generation topoisomerase-1 inhibitor licensed from AbbVie (formerly Immunogen), is tailored to specific EpCAM-expressing indications, including colorectal cancer, and includes a payload-antibody linker designed to drive bystander effect, contributing to anti-tumor activity.The study is currently enrolling the fifth dose escalation cohort with favorable safety and tolerability having been observed to date.Initial Phase 1a data are expected in the first half 2025. CX-801, PROBODY® interferon-alpha 2b; Phase 1a dose escalation study initiated. In Q3 2024, the first patient was dosed in the CX-801 Phase 1 study.Phase 1 dose escalation is ongoing with a primary focus in melanoma. The study will evaluate safety and initial clinical activity for CX-801 monotherapy and for CX-801 in combination with KEYTRUDA.Initial Phase 1a data are expected in the second half of 2025. Q3 2024 Financial Results Cash, cash equivalents and investments totaled $117.6 million as of September 30, 2024, compared to $137.2 million as of June 30, 2024. Based our current operating plan, we expect our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund operations to the end of 2025, not including the impact of potential milestones that may be earned in our existing collaborations. Total revenue was $33.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $26.4 million for the corresponding period in 2023. The increase in revenue was driven primarily by a higher percentage of completion of research activities related to the collaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb. Research and development expenses increased by $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $21.4 million, compared to $16.5 million for the corresponding period of 2023 primarily due to increased clinical and manufacturing activities for CX-2051 and clinical-related expenses for CX-904. General and administrative expenses increased by $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to 8.0 million, compared to the corresponding period of 2023, primarily due to higher professional services expenses supporting intellectual property related activities and internal controls.

About CytomX TherapeuticsCytomX is a clinical-stage, oncology-focused biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel conditionally activated, masked biologics designed to be localized to the tumor microenvironment. By pioneering a novel pipeline of localized biologics, powered by its PROBODY® therapeutic platform, CytomX’s vision is to create safer, more effective therapies for the treatment of cancer. CytomX’s robust and differentiated pipeline comprises therapeutic candidates across multiple treatment modalities including antibody-drug conjugates (“ADCs”), T-cell engagers, and immune modulators such as cytokines. CytomX’s clinical-stage pipeline includes CX-904, CX-2051 and CX-801. CX-904 is a masked, conditionally activated T-cell-engaging bispecific antibody targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on tumor cells and the CD3 receptor on T cells. CX-904 is partnered with Amgen in a global co-development alliance. CX-2051 is a masked, conditionally activated ADC directed toward epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and armed with a topoisomerase-1 inhibitor payload. CX-2051 has potential applicability across multiple EpCAM-expressing epithelial cancers and was discovered in collaboration with ImmunoGen, now part of AbbVie. CX-801 is a masked interferon alpha-2b PROBODY® cytokine with broad potential applicability in traditionally immuno-oncology sensitive as well as insensitive (cold) tumors. CytomX has established strategic collaborations with multiple leaders in oncology, including Amgen, Astellas, Bristol Myers Squibb, Regeneron and Moderna.
