CRB-701 (SYS6002) is a next-generation clinical-stage ADC that targets the expression of Nectin-4 on cancer cells to release a cytotoxic payload of monomethyl auristatin E ("MMAE"). In February 2023, we obtained a license from CSPC Megalith Biopharmaceutical Co. Ltd.

We are conducting a Phase 1/2 study in the U.S. and Europe (the "Western study") enrolling patients with advanced solid tumors associated with Nectin-4 expression. In June 2025, we began dosing participants in the PD-1 combination arm with CRB-701 in combination with Keytruda® (pembrolizumab). We received fast track designation for CRB-701 from the FDA for the treatment of relapsed or refractory metastatic cervical cancer in December 2024 and in recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (“HNSCC”) previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and an anti-PD(L)-1 therapy in September 2025. CRB-701 is currently being investigated by CSPC in a Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with cervical cancer in China (the "China study").

We presented updated clinical data at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology ("ASCO") Annual Meeting held from May 29 – June 2 in Chicago, IL. The new data demonstrate robust activity in the second line ("2L") setting of two solid tumor types that express high levels of Nectin-4 and are primarily driven by human papilloma virus ("HPV"): oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma ("OPSCC"), a type of HNSCC, and cervical cancer. The data is derived from an April 1, 2026 data cut with a total safety population of 317 patients encompassing all tumor types and all doses. A total of 75 patients with HNSCC and 72 patients with cervical cancer were enrolled at the 2.7 mg/kg and 3.6 mg/kg doses. The CRB-701 dose expansion phase of the Phase 1/2 Western study is ongoing. The FDA has cleared the start of the Company's registrational study for CRB-701 in 2L OPSCC ("TEMPO-1") and enrollment is expected to begin in September 2026. In addition, we also anticipate reporting data with CRB-701 in combination with Keytruda® in first-line OPSCC patients in Q1 2027 to support potential further registration-enabling trials.

Previous wording
CRB-913 is an orally delivered highly peripherally restricted CB1 inverse agonist for the treatment of obesity. CB1 inverse agonism is a clinically validated mechanism to induce weight loss and is a distinct mechanism of action separate from GLP-1s and the incretin class. CRB-913 has been specifically formulated to shift the drug exposure from the brain to the periphery to improve safety and tolerability, including reducing gastrointestinal ("GI") adverse events observed in the incretin class. We completed a single ascending dose (“SAD”) and multiple ascending dose (“MAD”) Phase 1a study in December 2025. The SAD portion of the trial enrolled 64 participants across 8 cohorts. The MAD portion enrolled 48 participants across 4 cohorts, including a dedicated obese cohort. The highest SAD dose tested was 600 mg/day, and the highest MAD dose tested was 150 mg/day. In the dedicated obese MAD cohort (150 mg/day), all CRB-913-treated participants (n=9), and none in the placebo group (n=3), experienced weight loss. The CRB-treated participants achieved a mean 2.9% placebo-adjusted weight loss by Day 14. Weight loss started early and deepened with time. CRB-913 was safe and well-tolerated across all cohorts and all doses studied, including demonstrating a very favorable GI profile with no reports of vomiting, constipation or nausea. Daily neuropsychiatric assessments using CSSRS, PHQ-9, and GAD-7 were negative. We initiated a Phase 1b dose-range finding study (“CANYON-1”) in December 2025. The Phase 1b study plans to follow 240 U.S. patients randomized into 4 arms (placebo, 20 mg, 40 mg, and 60 mg) over a 12-week treatment period followed by a 4-week safety follow-up. The last patient completed their last clinical visit in August 2026. We remain on track to report data in September 2026.

CRB-913 has been specifically formulated to shift the drug exposure from the brain to the periphery to improve safety and tolerability, including reducing gastrointestinal ("GI") adverse events observed in the incretin class. We initiated a Phase 1b dose-range finding study (“CANYON-1”) in December 2025 and announced topline data in September 2026. The CANYON-1 Phase 1b clinical trial was a 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study that enrolled 254 obese, non-diabetic adult participants at 15 investigational sites in the United States. The trial included three CRB-913 cohorts of 20 mg, 40 mg, and 60 mg dosed orally once-daily as well as a placebo cohort (randomization of 1:1:1:1). A dose titration regimen was used with all participants receiving CRB-913 commencing at 20 mg/day and then titrating up every two weeks to either 40 mg/day or 60 mg/day depending on their assigned cohort. Participants were dosed for 12 weeks and followed for an additional 4 weeks. The data demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful weight loss at all three doses with the 60 mg dose achieving a mean weight loss of 5% at 12 weeks. CRB-913 was associated with a favorable safety profile and fewer GI adverse events based on cross-trial comparison with published data of currently marketed oral GLP-1 drugs. These data support CRB-913’s potential to establish a new class of oral, non-incretin obesity medicines. We will be presenting CANYON-1 data at ObesityWeek® 2026 in November 2026 and will be engaging with the FDA on the clinical development plan.
