Current report

Patient enrollment was completed for the squamous cohort of HARMONi-3 in the first quarter of 2026. Previously, Summit announced its intention to perform an interim PFS analysis for the squamous cohort of the HARMONi-3 study in the second quarter of 2026 and final PFS analysis in the second half of 2026. To achieve statistical significance, there was a meaningfully higher bar than the upcoming planned final PFS analysis based on the minimal alpha spent on the interim analysis. At this early PFS interim analysis reviewed exclusively by the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC), the iDMC recommended that the study continue as planned. No safety concerns were noted, and the study continues to be double-blinded. There is no change to the previously guided timing of the preplanned final PFS analysis in the second half of 2026.

Current report

In June 2025, the Company entered into a clinical trial collaboration with Revolution Medicines Inc. (“RevMed”) to evaluate ivonescimab in combination with three RevMed RAS(ON) inhibitors (the “RevMed Collaboration”). In January 2026, the Company entered into a clinical trial collaboration with GSK plc to evaluate ivonescimab in combination with GSK’s novel B7-H3, risvutatug rezetecan, in multiple solid tumors (the “GSK Collaboration”). Neither the RevMed Collaboration nor the GSK Collaboration include upfront payments, milestone payments, or royalty sharing provisions. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, there was no cash consideration exchanged in connection with either the RevMed Collaboration or the GSK Collaboration.

Current report

Ivonescimab is currently being developed by both Akeso and the Company in multiple Phase III clinical trials. Over 4,000 patients have been treated with ivonescimab in clinical studies globally, and over 70,000 patients when considering those treated in a commercial setting in China as noted and updated by Akeso.

Current report

Based on the results of the HARMONi clinical trial, Summit submitted a BLA in the fourth quarter of 2025 in order to seek approval for ivonescimab plus chemotherapy in this setting. Summit announced in January 2026 that the FDA accepted for filing the BLA, seeking approval for ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy for this proposed indication. The FDA provided a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal action date of November 14, 2026. The FDA noted that a statistically significant OS benefit is necessary to support marketing authorization in this setting, and the PFS results from this study may not be sufficient to support marketing authorization.

Non-Sponsored Phase III Clinical Studies (Summit’s License Territories)

Current report

In the first quarter of 2026, the Company announced that GORTEC (Groupe d'Oncologie Radiothérapie Tête Et Cou or Head and Neck Oncology and Radiotherapy Group), a cooperative group dedicated to Head and Neck Oncology, will initiate the Phase III clinical study, ILLUMINE (NCT07264075), which will evaluate ivonescimab monotherapy and ivonescimab in combination with ligufalimab, Akeso’s proprietary anti-CD47 monoclonal antibody, against monotherapy pembrolizumab in a three-arm study. The study is intended to be conducted in multiple countries in Europe and in China; Summit will consider the expansion of this study into the United States. The primary endpoint for the study is OS. The study, currently planned to enroll 780 patients with recurrent or metastatic PD-L1 positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), is expected to begin enrollment in the second quarter of 2026. Data supporting this study was previously presented at the 2024 European Society for Medical Oncology Annual Congress (“ESMO 2024”), whereby ivonescimab in combination with ligufalimab demonstrated an objective response rate of 60% in 20 patients with a median PFS of 7.1 months after a median follow-up time of 4.1 months; OS was not mature at the time of this analysis. At the time of data cut-off for this presentation, no patients receiving ivonescimab plus ligufalimab permanently discontinued drug treatment due to treatment-related adverse events.

Current report

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $61.2 million and primarily consisted of the net loss of $62.9 million and a $6.2 million net change in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by non-cash charges of $7.9 million. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of $11.1 million of stock-based compensation, partially offset by $3.0 million relating to amortization of the discount on short-term investments in U.S. government treasury bills. The net change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $7.6 million decrease in accrued compensation, a $1.4 million increase in other assets and a $1.0 million decrease in other current liabilities, partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a $1.6 million increase in accrued liabilities.

Current report

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $0.2 million and primarily driven by $177.3 million in purchase of short-term investments and $0.2 million in purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by $177.3 million in maturities and sales of short-term investments.

Overall response rates were higher in the ivonescimab arm (45%) vs. the placebo arm (34%); median duration of response was longer in those patients administered ivonescimab plus chemotherapy (7.6 months) compared to those receiving placebo and chemotherapy (4.2 months).

Previous report

In August 2025, Akeso announced that in the final OS analysis of HARMONi-A, ivonescimab met the OS clinical endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful OS benefit. As the first Phase III final analysis for ivonescimab, these results not only reinforce its breakthrough value in PFS, but also highlight its ability to deliver significant OS improvement, a key endpoint in global oncology drug development.

Previous report

The entry into the License Agreement represents a significant change in our strategy from anti-infectives to the therapeutic area of oncology. We invested our resources in the clinical development of ivonescimab in the periods presented.

Previous report

Oncology clinical trial related costs represent our investment in the clinical development of ivonescimab, known as SMT112 in the Licensed Territory.

Previous report

In June 2024, we entered into a second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the License Agreement with Akeso to expand our licensed territories to include Latin America, Middle East and Africa regions. Considered an extension of the original License Agreement, we agreed to make an upfront payment to Akeso in the amount of $15.0 million for these expanded territories which we paid in the third quarter of 2024. This was recorded in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss as Acquired in process research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous report

Interest expense decrease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the repayment in full of the promissory note in October 2024.

Previous report

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $93.4 million and was due to a net loss of $160.1 million, which included non-cash charges of $35.5 million, an adjustment of $15.0 million cash payments to investing activities, related to acquired-in process research and development for the upfront payment to Akeso for the Second Amendment signed in June 2024 and paid in the third quarter of 2024, and a net change in working capital of $16.2 million. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of $40.0 million of stock-based compensation, offset by $4.9 million relating to the amortization of the discount of short-term investments in U.S. Treasury securities. The net change in working capital was primarily due to an increase of $9.9 million in accrued liabilities, which mostly represents the interest on the current promissory notes payable, an increase of $2.5 million in accrued compensation relating to an increase in accrued bonuses, a decrease of $2.1 million in current and other long-term assets, a decrease of $0.7 million in research and development tax receivable to reflect a true-up in estimates, an increase of $0.5 million in accounts payable, and a decrease of $0.6 million in prepaid expenses.

Previous report

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $288.8 million and was primarily due to $256.9 million received from the maturity, redemption and sale of short-term investments in U.S. Treasury securities, offset by $530.5 million related to the purchase of short-term investments and a $15.0 million cash payment to Akeso for the Second Amendment signed in June 2024.

Previous report

Net cash provided by financing activities was $404.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and primarily consisted of net proceeds of $435.0 million from various private placements, $43.0 million net proceeds from our Distribution Agreement, proceeds received of $2.2 million related to employee stock awards, partially offset by $75.5 million early principal repayment on the $100.0 million promissory notes payable with a related party.

Previous wording

In October 2024, the Company completed enrollment in its HARMONi clinical trial. In May 2025, we announced topline results from our multiregional, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, Phase III study HARMONi. At the prespecified primary data analysis, ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in progression free survival (PFS), the magnitude of which we believe to be clinically meaningful, with a hazard ratio of 0.52 (95% CI: 0.41 – 0.66;

In May 2025, we announced topline results from our multiregional, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, Phase III study HARMONi. At the prespecified primary data analysis, ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in progression free survival (“PFS”), the magnitude of which we believe to be clinically meaningful, with a hazard ratio of 0.52 (95% CI: 0.41 – 0.66; p<0.00001) compared to placebo in combination with chemotherapy; median PFS was 6.8 months for those patients receiving ivonescimab plus chemotherapy compared to 4.4 months for those receiving chemotherapy. PFS was assessed by blinded independent central radiology committee (“BICR”).

Previous wording

In a longer-term follow-up of PFS, which included all western patients and at least six months of follow-up time for all patients, ivonescimab plus chemotherapy demonstrated a consistent improvement in PFS with an observed HR of 0.57 (95% CI: 0.46 – 0.71). With the longer-term follow-up analysis, a consistent benefit in western vs. Asian patients was observed, as well as in patients with tumors with either PD-L1 positive or negative expression. This longer-term follow-up analysis of PFS was performed at the time of the primary OS analysis.

Current wording

In a longer-term follow-up of PFS, which included all Western patients and at least six months of follow-up time for all patients, ivonescimab plus chemotherapy demonstrated a consistent improvement in PFS with an observed HR of 0.57 (95% CI: 0.46 – 0.71). With the longer-term follow-up analysis, consistency of the magnitude of PFS benefit was demonstrated between patients randomized in Asia and Western patients when measured by hazard ratio. This longer-term follow-up analysis of PFS was performed at the time of the primary overall survival (“OS”) analysis.

Previous wording

We believe the PFS hazard ratio that was observed in both Asia and ex-Asia sub-populations to be clinically meaningful. The primary analysis demonstrated the consistency of the magnitude of the PFS benefit between patients randomized in Asia and ex-Asia, as well as the consistency in a single-region study (HARMONi-A) with this multiregional study. Ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy showed a positive trend in overall survival (OS) in the primary analysis without achieving a statistically significant benefit with a hazard ratio of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.62 – 1.01; p=0.057). This trend provides further support for its use in 2L+ EGFRm NSCLC, a setting where high unmet need continues to exist with limited approved options in the United States and other western territories. Currently there are no FDA-approved regimens that have demonstrated a statistically significant overall survival benefit in this patient setting. Both Asian and North American patients demonstrated a positive trend in overall survival. The results of the primary analysis in this multiregional study were consistent with that of the single-region HARMONi-A study, which demonstrated an overall survival hazard ratio of 0.80 at 52% data maturity in a similar patient population.

Current wording

Ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy showed a positive trend in OS in the primary analysis without achieving a statistically significant benefit with a hazard ratio of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.62 – 1.01; p=0.057). This trend provides further support for its use in EGFRm NSCLC after TKI therapy, a setting where high unmet need continues to exist with limited approved options in the United States and other western territories. Currently there are no FDA-approved regimens that have demonstrated a statistically significant OS benefit in this patient setting. Both Asian and North American patients demonstrated a positive trend in OS. The results of the primary analysis in this multiregional study were consistent with that of the single-region randomized Phase III HARMONi-A study, which demonstrated a statistically significant OS benefit with a hazard ratio of 0.74 in the primary OS analysis in a similar patient population.

Previous wording

In September 2025, an additional analysis was performed, whereby the western patients were followed to increase their time on study (Asian patients were locked at the time of the primary analysis). In this analysis that included longer-term follow-up of western patients (median follow-up time of western patients of 13.7 months), a hazard ratio consistent with the primary analysis was observed with an improved nominal p-value (HR=0.78; 95% CI: 0.62 – 0.98; nominal p=0.0332). Median OS for this analysis remained the same in both arms from the primary analysis. Median OS in western patients receiving ivonescimab was 17.0 months compared to 14.0 months for those receiving placebo (HR=0.84); median OS in North American patients, specifically, had not yet been reached in the ivonescimab arm compared to 14.0 months in the placebo arm (HR=0.70). The hazard ratios for western patients in totality, as well as patients from the North American and European regions individually, improved from the primary OS analysis to the analysis with longer-term follow-up of western patients. Consistent benefit was observed across pre-defined subgroups.

Current wording

In September 2025, an additional ad hoc OS analysis was performed for the HARMONi study, whereby the Western patients were followed for a longer period of time (Asian patients were locked at the time of the primary analysis). In this analysis that included longer-term follow-up of Western patients (median follow-up time of Western patients of 13.7 months), a hazard ratio consistent with the primary analysis was observed with an improved nominal p-value (HR=0.78; 95% CI: 0.62 – 0.98; nominal p=0.0332). Median OS for this analysis remained the same in both arms as was observed in the primary analysis. Median OS in Western patients receiving ivonescimab was 17.0 months compared to 14.0 months for those receiving placebo (HR=0.84); median OS in North American patients, specifically, had not yet been reached in the ivonescimab arm compared to 14.0 months in the placebo arm (HR=0.70). The hazard ratios for Western patients in totality, as well as patients from the North American and European regions individually, improved from the primary OS analysis to the analysis with longer-term follow-up of Western patients. Consistent benefit was observed across pre-defined subgroups.

Previous wording

Based on the results of the HARMONi clinical trial, we plan to submit a Biologics License Application (BLA) in order to seek approval for ivonescimab plus chemotherapy for this proposed indication. We intend to submit the BLA in the fourth quarter of 2025. The positive results of the multiregional Phase III study are detailed further under "Product Pipeline" below. As previously noted, the FDA noted that a statistically significant overall survival benefit is necessary to support marketing authorization in this setting. After careful consideration of the safety and efficacy profile of the current FDA-approved options for patients in this setting, the positive results of the Phase III multiregional study, including regional consistency, as well as discussions with key opinion leaders and those physicians who have administered ivonescimab to patients in a clinical study setting, we believe that the safety and efficacy data generated in the HARMONi study demonstrates that patients suffering from epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in this setting can benefit from the ivonescimab regimen despite the lack of a statistically significant showing on overall survival.

Summit announced in January 2026 that the FDA accepted for filing the BLA seeking approval for ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy for this proposed indication. The FDA provided a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal action date of November 14, 2026. The FDA noted that a statistically significant OS benefit is necessary to support marketing authorization in this setting and the PFS results from this study may not be sufficient to support marketing authorization.

Previous wording

HARMONi-3 study (NCT05899608) is a Phase III, multi-regional, potentially registration-enabling clinical trial for which we initiated activating sites in North America and China during the fourth quarter of 2023 and later in Europe in 2024. The two primary endpoints for this study are PFS and OS, and the study compares ivonescimab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy versus pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy in first-line patients with metastatic squamous NSCLC and non-squamous NSCLC. Enrollment is ongoing in all regions for patients with squamous tumors; the protocol amendment is effective and enrollment began in the United States in the fourth quarter of 2024 for patients with non-squamous tumors.

Previous wording

Ivonescimab is a novel potential first-in-class PD-1 / VEGF bispecific antibody, believed to be the most advanced in clinical development in the Licensed Territory. Engineered with Akeso’s unique Tetrabody technology, ivonescimab, as a single molecule, blocks programmed cell death protein 1 (“PD-1”) from binding to PD-L1 and PD-L2, and blocks vascular endothelial growth factor (“VEGF”) from binding to VEGF receptors. Ivonescimab is designed to potentially allow cooperative binding of the intended targets, such that the binding of PD-1 increases the binding affinity of VEGF. In view of the co-expression of VEGF and PD-1 in the tumor micro-environment (“TME”), ivonescimab may block these two pathways more effectively and enhance the antitumor activity, as compared to combination therapy through what is believed to be a unique cooperative binding mechanism.

Previous wording

This could differentiate ivonescimab as there is potentially higher expression (presence) of both PD-1 and VEGF in tumor tissue and the TME as compared to normal tissue in the body. As shown in Akeso’sin-vitro studies, ivonescimab’s tetravalent structure (four binding sites) enables higher avidity (accumulated strength of multiple binding interactions) in the TME with over 10 fold increased binding affinity to PD-1 in the presence of VEGFin vitro. This tetravalent structure, the intentional novel design of the molecule, and bringing these two targets into a single bispecific antibody with cooperative binding qualities has the potential to direct ivonescimab to the tumor tissue versus healthy tissue. The intent of this design is to improve upon previously established efficacy thresholds, in addition to side effects and safety profiles associated with these targets.

This tetravalent structure, the intentional novel design of the molecule, and bringing these two targets into a single bispecific antibody with cooperative binding qualities has the potential to direct ivonescimab to the tumor tissue versus healthy tissue. The intent of this design is to improve upon previously established efficacy thresholds, in addition to side effects and safety profiles associated with these targets.

Previous wording

In May 2025, we announced topline results from our multiregional, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, Phase III study HARMONi. At the prespecified primary data analysis, ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in PFS, the magnitude of which we believe to be clinically meaningful, with a hazard ratio of 0.52 (95% CI: 0.41 – 0.66; p<0.00001); median PFS was 6.8 months for those patients receiving ivonescimab plus chemotherapy compared to 4.4 months for those receiving chemotherapy. PFS was measured by blinded independent central radiology review committee (“BICR”) compared to placebo in combination with chemotherapy.

PFS was assessed by BICR.

Previous wording

In a longer-term follow-up of PFS, which included all western patients and at least six months of follow-up time for all patients, ivonescimab plus chemotherapy demonstrated a consistent improvement in PFS with an observed HR of 0.57 (95% CI: 0.46 – 0.71). With the longer-term follow-up analysis, a consistent benefit in western vs. Asian patients was observed, as well as in patients with tumors with either PD-L1 positive or negative expression. This longer-term follow-up analysis of PFS was performed at the time of the primary OS analysis.

Current wording

In a longer-term follow-up of PFS, which included all Western patients and at least six months of follow-up time for all patients, ivonescimab plus chemotherapy demonstrated a consistent improvement in PFS with an observed HR of 0.57 (95% CI: 0.46 – 0.71). With the longer-term follow-up analysis, consistency of the magnitude of PFS benefit was demonstrated between patients randomized in Asia and Western patients when measured by hazard ratio. This longer-term follow-up analysis of PFS was performed at the time of the primary OS analysis.

Previous wording

We believe the PFS hazard ratio that was observed in both Asia and ex-Asia sub-populations to be clinically meaningful. The primary analysis demonstrated the consistency of the magnitude of the PFS benefit between patients randomized in Asia and ex-Asia, as well as the consistency in a single-region study (HARMONi-A) with this multiregional study. Ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy showed a positive trend in overall survival (OS) in the primary analysis without achieving a statistically significant benefit with a hazard ratio of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.62 – 1.01; p=0.057). This trend provides further support for its use in 2L+ EGFRm NSCLC, a setting where high unmet need continues to exist with limited approved options in the United States and other western territories. Currently there are no FDA-approved regimens that have demonstrated a statistically significant overall survival benefit in this patient setting. Both Asian and North American patients demonstrated a positive trend in overall survival. The results of the primary analysis in this multiregional study were consistent with that of the single-region HARMONi-A study, which demonstrated an overall survival hazard ratio of 0.80 at 52% data maturity in a similar patient population.

Current wording

Ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy showed a positive trend in OS in the primary analysis without achieving a statistically significant benefit with a hazard ratio of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.62 – 1.01; p=0.057). This trend provides further support for its use in EGFRm NSCLC after TKI therapy, a setting where high unmet need continues to exist with limited approved options in the United States and other western territories. Currently, there are no FDA-approved regimens that have demonstrated a statistically significant OS benefit in this patient setting. Both Asian and North American patients demonstrated a positive trend in OS. The results of the primary analysis in this multiregional study were consistent with that of the single-region randomized Phase III HARMONi-A study, which demonstrated a statistically significant OS benefit hazard ratio of 0.74 in the primary OS analysis in a similar patient population.

Previous wording

In September 2025, an additional analysis was performed, whereby the western patients were followed to increase their time on study (Asian patients were locked at the time of the primary analysis). In this analysis that included longer-term follow-up of western patients (median follow-up time of western patients of 13.7 months), a hazard ratio consistent with the primary analysis was observed with an improved nominal p-value (HR=0.78; 95% CI: 0.62 – 0.98; nominal p=0.0332). Median OS for this analysis remained the same in both arms from the primary analysis. Median OS in western patients receiving ivonescimab was 17.0 months compared to 14.0 months for those receiving placebo (HR=0.84); median OS in North American patients, specifically, had not yet been reached in the ivonescimab arm compared to 14.0 months in the placebo arm (HR=0.70). The hazard ratios for western patients in totality, as well as patients from the North American and European regions individually, improved from the primary OS analysis to the analysis with longer-term follow-up of western patients. Consistent benefit was observed across pre-defined subgroups.

Current wording

In September 2025, an additional ad hoc OS analysis was performed for the HARMONi study whereby the Western patients were followed for a longer period of time (Asian patients were locked at the time of the primary analysis). In this analysis that included longer-term follow-up of Western patients (median follow-up time of Western patients of 13.7 months), a hazard ratio consistent with the primary analysis was observed with an improved nominal p-value (HR=0.78; 95% CI: 0.62 – 0.98; nominal p=0.0332). Median OS for this analysis remained the same in both arms as was observed in the primary analysis. Median OS in Western patients receiving ivonescimab was 17.0 months compared to 14.0 months for those receiving placebo (HR=0.84); median OS in North American patients, specifically, had not yet been reached in the ivonescimab arm compared to 14.0 months in the placebo arm (HR=0.70). The hazard ratios for Western patients in totality, as well as patients from the North American and European regions individually, improved from the primary OS analysis to the analysis with longer-term follow-up of Western patients. Consistent benefit was observed across pre-defined subgroups.

Previous wording

The safety profile of ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy was acceptable and manageable in the context of the observed clinical benefit with comparable rates of discontinuation and death between both arms. There were 16 patients (7.3%) who discontinued ivonescimab due to treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) compared to 11 patients (5.0%) who discontinued placebo due to TRAEs. There were four patients (1.8%) in the ivonescimab plus chemotherapy arm and five patients (2.3%) in the chemotherapy alone arm who died as a result of TRAEs. In the ivonescimab plus chemotherapy arm, 50.0% of patients experienced Grade 3 or higher TRAEs compared to 42.2% in the chemotherapy arm. Of note, 0.9% of patients in the ivonescimab plus chemotherapy arm experienced Grade 3 or higher hemorrhage (bleeding) events. Based on the results of the HARMONi clinical trial, Summit plans to submit a Biologics License Application (BLA) in order to seek approval for ivonescimab plus chemotherapy in this setting.

In addition, our continued investment in oncology expenses for ivonescimab, known as SMT112 in our Licensed Territory, resulted in an increase of $52.2 million and $114.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and an increase in compensation related costs of $6.4 million and $14.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 to support the clinical development of ivonescimab as we continue to hire additional clinical resources in the oncology field. We expect oncology-related research and development costs to continue to increase as we progress with the development of ivonescimab.

Research and development expenses increased by $81.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in third-party research and development expenses was primarily driven by a $31.5 million increase in clinical trial related expenses, a $19.9 million increase in expenses related to manufacturing and purchasing of clinical trial related materials as a result of increased enrollment in our HARMONi-3, HARMONi-7, and HARMONi-GI3 trials, and a $2.5 million increase in other external research and development expenses. The increase in internal research and development expenses was primarily driven by a $20.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense as a result of the modification to our performance-based stock option awards during the second quarter of 2025 and a $7.2 million increase in compensation related costs, excluding stock-based compensation, as we continue to hire additional resources to support the clinical development of ivonescimab. We expect research and development expenses to continue to increase as we progress with the development of ivonescimab.

We believe the PFS hazard ratio that was observed in both Asian and Western sub-populations to be clinically meaningful. The primary analysis demonstrated the consistency of the magnitude of the PFS benefit between patients randomized in Asian and Western territories, as well as the consistency in a single-region study ("HARMONi-A") with this multiregional study.

HARMONi-3 study (NCT05899608) is a Phase III, multi-regional, potentially registration-enabling clinical trial for which we initiated sites in North America, China and Europe. The two primary endpoints for this study are PFS and OS, and the study compares ivonescimab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy versus pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy in first-line patients with metastatic squamous NSCLC and non-squamous NSCLC. Enrollment is ongoing in all regions for patients with non-squamous tumors.

In October 2025, the Company announced a protocol amendment to separate the statistical analysis of the primary endpoints by histology. Therefore, there will be separate analyses conducted to evaluate ivonescimab plus chemotherapy compared to pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in patients with squamous NSCLC and in patients with non-squamous NSCLC.

In order to sufficiently power for both primary endpoints (PFS and OS) in both cohorts of this study, Summit plans to enroll approximately 600 patients with squamous NSCLC and 1,000 patients with non-squamous NSCLC.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

As a result of having two separate intention-to-treat analyses within the HARMONi-3 study, the analyses for squamous tumors and non-squamous tumors may be conducted at separate times, as each analysis will be conducted upon the prespecified numbers of events being reached in the separate cohorts.
