Initial clinical data for CLN-978 in SLE and RA confirmed for Q2 2026; repeat dosing data in RA confirmed for Q3 2026 Zipalertinib rolling NDA submission completed; enrollment of REZILIENT3 frontline study completed with top-line results available by year-end 2026 Cash and investments of $439.0 million as of December 31, 2025; runway into 2029 CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cullinan Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CGEM; “Cullinan”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company accelerating potential first- or best-in-class, high-impact therapies in autoimmune diseases and cancer, today provided an update on recent and anticipated business highlights and announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025. “Cullinan Therapeutics is poised to deliver multiple value-driving catalysts across our programs throughout 2026. Strong enrollment momentum for CLN-978 positions us to deliver the first company-sponsored data for a potential best-in-class CD19 T cell engager in autoimmune diseases in the second quarter, followed by important additional data updates throughout the year. CLN-978 is the ideal therapy for immune reset, with the optimal combination of target, CD19, and modality, T cell engager, together with the convenience of subcutaneous administration. This program has the potential to transform the treatment landscape in autoimmune diseases and deliver a compelling commercial opportunity,” said Nadim Ahmed, President and CEO of Cullinan Therapeutics. “We are also pleased to begin the year with strong momentum in our oncology portfolio. With our partner, Taiho, we have completed the second line rolling NDA submission for zipalertinib and have fully enrolled the frontline study, REZILIENT3, both important milestones as zipalertinib moves closer to being available for patients. Finally, after sharing compelling clinical data at ASH 2025 and with U.S. FDA Fast Track Designation, we expect to rapidly advance CLN-049 to registrational development in AML.” Portfolio Highlights and 2026 Milestones Immunology CLN-978 (CD19xCD3 bispecific T cell engager): Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and Sjögren’s disease (SjD) OUTRACE SLE In Q2 2026, the Company plans to share initial data from Part A (single target dose escalation) with a focus on safety and B cell depletion in peripheral blood, as well as other biomarker data and preliminary clinical activity data.
