*THIS IS A CONTRACT POSITION*

About Summit

Ivonescimab known as SMT112 is a novel potential firstinclass investigational bispecific antibody combining the effects of immunotherapy via a blockade of PD1 with the antiangiogenesis effects associated with blocking VEGF into a single molecule. Ivonescimab displays unique cooperative binding to each of its intended targets with multifold higher affinity when in the presence of both PD1 and VEGF.

Summit has begun its clinical development of ivonescimab in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with three active Phase III trials:

• HARMONi is a Phase III clinical trial which intends to evaluate ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy compared to placebo plus chemotherapy in patients with EGFRmutated locally advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC who have progressed after treatment with a 3rd generation EGFR TKI (e.g. osimertinib).
• HARMONi3 is a Phase III clinical trial which is designed to evaluate ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy compared to pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy in patients with firstline metastatic NSCLC.
• HARMONi7 is a Phase III clinical trial which is intended to evaluate ivonescimab monotherapy compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy in patients with firstline metastatic NSCLC whose tumors have high PDL1 expression.

Ivonescimab is an investigational therapy that is not approved by any regulatory authority in Summits license territories including the United States and Europe. Ivonescimab was approved for marketing authorization in China in May 2024. Ivonescimab was granted Fast Track designation by the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for the HARMONi clinical trial setting.
