Current report
We view the field of masked biologics as having broad potential applicability across a range of therapeutic modalities. We continue to be engaged in drug discovery efforts internally and with our partners in areas such as ADCs, Cytokines, TCEs, and mRNAs reflecting the versatility of our PROBODY platform.
Current report
A key focus of our current collaboration work is T-cell engaging bispecific therapies where we have significant ongoing efforts with partners such as Regeneron and Astellas. For example, in the first quarter of 2025, Astellas advanced a program to GLP toxicology studies, triggering a $5.0 million milestone payment to CytomX. Overall, we view masking a key strategy to open or widen the therapeutic window for T-cell engagers and view strategic partnering in this area as an important way to extend the reach of the PROBODY platform.

Going Concern
Previous report
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $668.1 million and $691.6 million, respectively, and cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $79.9 million and $100.6 million, respectively. Our current operating plan and projected cash outflows for the upcoming periods raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. We will need to raise additional capital to fund continued operations beyond the second quarter of 2026. We have implemented a restructuring plan to reduce our workforce by 40% which was substantially completed in the first quarter of 2025, to extend our cash runway. We are also taking steps to identify access to future capital and expect to be able to access capital in the future. However, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. If events or circumstances occur such that we do not obtain additional funding, it may be necessary to significantly reduce the scope of operations to reduce the current rate of spending, which could include further reductions in staff and the need to delay, limit, reduce or terminate current or future product development, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, even if financing efforts are successful and additional capital is obtained, available liquidity may still be insufficient to eliminate the aforementioned substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
Previous report
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the corresponding period of 2024, primarily driven by $1.1 million of restructuring expenses as well as other personnel related expenses. We expect general and administrative related personnel expenses to decrease in future quarters of 2025 due to one-time restructuring costs incurred in the first quarter of 2025 and lower headcount as a result of the January 2025 restructuring.
Previous report
Based upon our current operating plan and liquidity requirements, we expect our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund operations into the second quarter of 2026. We have implemented a restructuring plan to streamline our organization and reduce costs, which included a 40% reduction of our workforce and revised capital allocation priorities, which was substantially completed in the first quarter of 2025. We are also evaluating available financing opportunities to improve our liquidity profile. However, there can be no assurance that the restructuring will achieve our anticipated operating results, or that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

Reworded paragraphs (32)
Previous wording
We have utilized our PROBODY therapeutic platform and masking technology to build a promising pipeline of potential first-in-class and best-in-class clinical-stage molecules. These are CX-2051, an investigational, conditionally activated ADC targeting epithelial cell adhesion molecule (“EpCAM”), and CX-801, an investigational, masked version of interferon alpha-2b (“IFNα2b”). Our current clinical-stage molecules address targets or mechanisms that have been previously validated as having anti-cancer activity but have been limited in their utilization due to systemic toxicities. We have incorporated our significant, multi-modality masking, conditional activation expertise and clinical learnings to optimize predicted therapeutic index and the clinical potential of these promising agents through tumor localized, conditional activation.

Previous wording
CX-2051, a conditionally activated, PROBODY ADC, targets EpCAM. High expression of EpCAM has been documented in many tumor types, including colorectal cancer (“CRC”). The CX-2051 payload, a next generation topoisomerase-1 inhibitor payload licensed from AbbVie (formerly ImmunoGen), is tailored to have anti-tumor activity against multiple EpCAM-expressing indications, including colorectal cancer. The payload-antibody linker we selected for CX-2051 is designed to drive bystander killing of neighboring tumor cells, contributing to anti-tumor activity. The design of CX-2051 is intended to establish a clinically meaningful therapeutic window for the systemic treatment of EpCAM-expressing cancers where previous industry efforts targeting EpCAM have not been successful due to dose-limiting toxicities. CX-2051 has demonstrated strong preclinical activity and tolerability in multiple preclinical models, including colorectal cancer.

Previous wording
CX-801 is our PROBODY interferon ("IFN") alpha(a)-2b clinical program. IFNα2b provides a potentially superior approach to activating anti-tumor immune responses than other cytokines. CX-801 is a dually masked, conditionally activated version of IFNα2b that has the potential to become a cornerstone of combination therapy for a wide range of tumor types. The IND for CX-801 was allowed to proceed by the FDA in January 2024, and in the third quarter of 2024 the first patient was dosed in the CX-801 Phase 1 dose escalation study in solid tumors. The Phase 1 dose escalation study is focused on patients with advanced melanoma. In Phase 1 dose escalation, the study will evaluate safety, translational biomarkers and signs of clinical activity for CX-801 monotherapy and in combination with KEYTRUDA®. In the second quarter of 2024, CytomX announced a clinical collaboration with Merck to supply KEYTRUDA for evaluation of its combination with CX-801 in the Phase 1 study. The Phase 1 study is currently in the fourth monotherapy dose escalation cohort where the dose of CX-801 exceeds the approved dose of the unmasked peginterferon alfa-2b (SYLATRON™). Initial Phase 1a clinical and translational data in patients with advanced melanoma is expected in the second half of 2025.

We are also active in the research and development of PROBODY T-cell Engagers. In 2022, we advanced our first TCE into the clinic. CX-904, which was partnered with Amgen, is a conditionally activated TCE against EGFR and CD3. In preclinical studies, CytomX’s PROBODY EGFRxCD3 TCE demonstrated anti-tumor activity and better tolerability when compared to TCEs without PROBODY masking. In May 2022, the first patient was dosed in a Phase 1 study evaluating CX-904 as a treatment for patients with advanced solid tumors. As of the end of 2024, the Phase 1 study of CX-904 had enrolled over 70 patients and a maximum tolerated dose had not been reached. In March 2025, based on CX-904 clinical observations to-date as well as CytomX pipeline priorities, CytomX and Amgen jointly decided to not further develop the CX-904 program.

The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures depend on numerous factors, including the progress of our preclinical and clinical development efforts, the results of any clinical trials and other studies, our operating costs and expenditures and other factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The cost and timing of developing our product candidates is highly uncertain and subject to substantial risks and changes. As such, we may alter our expenditures as a result of contingencies such as the failure of one or all of our product candidates currently in clinical development, the acceleration of one or all of our product candidates in clinical development, the initiating of clinical trials for additional product candidates, the identification of more promising product candidates in our research efforts or unexpected operating costs and expenditures. In addition, we will need to raise additional capital to fund our operation beyond the second quarter of 2026 and we are taking steps to identify access to future capital, and expect to be able to access capital in the future. There can be no assurance, however, that such efforts will be successful; or if they are successful, that the terms and conditions of such financing will be favorable to us.
Current wording
Based upon our current operating plan and liquidity requirements, we expect our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund operations into the second quarter of 2027. However, if the anticipated operating results are not achieved in future periods, our planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period over which the then-available resources would be able to fund the operations. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures depend on numerous factors, including the progress of our preclinical and clinical development efforts, the results of any clinical trials and other studies, our operating costs and expenditures and other factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The cost and timing of developing our product candidates is highly uncertain and subject to substantial risks and changes.

We will need to raise additional capital to fund our operation in the future. There can be no assurance, however, that such efforts will be successful; or if they are successful, that the terms and conditions of such financing will be favorable to us.
