SMT112-216 / AK112-216
Current report
On October 19, 2026, the Company announced the initiation and opening of trial sites for SMT112-216, a global Phase II study of ivonescimab in previously untreated advanced ccRCC. The study, also referred to as AK112-216, is being conducted in collaboration with Summit’s partner, Akeso Inc. SMT112-216 is a randomized, open-label Phase II clinical study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple ivonescimab-based treatment approaches in patients with incurable locally advanced or metastatic ccRCC who have not received prior systemic therapy for advanced disease. The study plans to enroll approximately 100 patients at clinical trial sites in the U.S. and China. Participants will be randomized to receive ivonescimab in combination with cadonilimab, ivonescimab in combination with ipilimumab, ivonescimab monotherapy, or nivolumab plus ipilimumab as an established standard-of-care comparator regimen. Cadonilimab is an investigational PD-1 / CTLA-4 bispecific antibody developed by Akeso. This study is in addition to Summit’s clinical trial collaboration with Arcus evaluating ivonescimab in combination with casdatifan, a HIF2α inhibitor, in a similar ccRCC setting.
Current report
In the fourth quarter of 2026, the Company announced a clinical collaboration with ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group (“ECOG-ACRIN”), a scientific organization focused on innovative multicenter clinical trials, to initiate the registration-enabling Phase II/III clinical study, EA2251 (NCT07765433), evaluating ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy compared to pembrolizumab or durvalumab in combination with chemotherapy in advanced biliary tract cancer (“BTC”). Sponsored by ECOG-ACRIN, the primary endpoint for the study is OS. Activation of U.S. clinical trial sites is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026. Data supporting EA2251 was previously presented at ESMO 2026 via HARMONi-GI1, a single-region Phase III study from China sponsored by Akeso, which is further described below.
Current report
On September 13, 2026, detailed clinical trial results of the HARMONi-2 study, including interim OS, were presented as part of the Presidential Symposium at WCLC 2026. In this protocol-specified interim analysis of OS, a secondary endpoint in the HARMONi-2 study, ivonescimab monotherapy demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy, achieving a hazard ratio of 0.73 (95% CI: 0.57, 0.95; p=0.009). A clinically meaningful benefit was demonstrated across important clinical subgroups, including those with PD-L1 low expression (PD-L1 Score 1-49%) and PD-L1 high expression (PD-L1 Score ≥ 50%), along with those with squamous and non-squamous histologies. In this analysis, ivonescimab continued to demonstrate an acceptable and manageable safety profile in the HARMONi-2 study, which was consistent with previous Phase III studies of ivonescimab. No additional safety signals were noted in the HARMONi-2 study in this current data cut with longer treatment duration (median of 14 cycles of ivonescimab vs. 10 cycles of pembrolizumab) compared to the previous data cut.
Current report
In the HARMONi-6 planned PFS interim analysis with a data cutoff date of February 2025 and median follow-up time of 10.28 months, ivonescimab in combination with chemotherapy demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint, PFS, by IRRC, when compared to tislelizumab in combination with chemotherapy, achieving a hazard ratio of 0.60 (95% CI: 0.46, 0.78; p<0.0001). Subsequently, as published in the Chinese package insert (commonly referred to as the “label”), with a data cutoff date of September 2025 and median follow-up time of 17.02 months, the hazard ratio was 0.72 (95% CI: 0.58, 0.91; nominal p=0.003).
Current report
In August 2026, Akeso announced receipt of marketing authorization in China from the NMPA for the use of ivonescimab, in combination with chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced squamous NSCLC.

Going Concern
Previous report
Our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are not sufficient to fund our planned operations for a period of at least one year from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
Previous report
Until we can generate substantial revenue and achieve profitability, we will need to raise additional capital to fund our ongoing operations and capital needs. We continue to evaluate options to further finance our operating cash needs for our product candidates through a combination of some, or all, of the following: equity and debt offerings, collaborations, strategic alliances, grants and clinical trial support from government entities, philanthropic, non-government and not-for-profit organizations, and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. There is no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available when needed or that we will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain funding when required in the future, we could be required to delay or reduce research and development programs, product portfolio expansion, or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect our business prospects. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

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; 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”).
Current wording
In October 2024, the Company completed enrollment in its HARMONi clinical trial. In May 2025, we announced topline results from our double-blinded, placebo-controlled HARMONi study. The HARMONi study has dual primary endpoints: progression-free survival (“PFS”) and overall survival (“OS”). 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) 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, 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
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 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.

Consistent benefit was observed across pre-defined subgroups.
Previous wording
In July 2026, an updated analysis was conducted with a data cutoff date of June 2026 which analyzed OS when most western patients had discontinued treatment or completed two years of treatment. This analysis showed a consistent OS trend amongst western and Asian patients as western patients were followed for additional time on study reaching median follow-up of 23.2 months; Asian patients remained locked with a median follow-up time of 32.7 months from the primary analysis. A hazard ratio of 0.76 was observed for the full population; the 0.76 hazard ratio was observed in western patient subgroup, respectively, in this analysis. Ivonescimab continued to demonstrate an acceptable and manageable safety profile, that was consistent with previous Phase III data of ivonescimab plus chemotherapy with no additional safety signals noted. These OS results have been made available to the FDA, and more detailed data are intended to be presented at an upcoming medical conference.

The updated June 2026 analysis, which was presented as part of the Presidential Symposium at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (“IASLC”) 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer (“WCLC”), continued to show consistent, favorable OS results, with an OS hazard ratio of 0.76 (95% CI: 0.61 – 0.95; nominal p=0.0151) in the global intention-to-treat (“ITT”) population. An OS hazard ratio of 0.76 was demonstrated in the western patient subgroup (95% CI: 0.52 – 1.10), which was consistent with the ITT population and Asian subgroup. In this most recent analysis, ivonescimab continued to demonstrate an acceptable and manageable safety profile that was consistent with previous Phase III data of ivonescimab plus chemotherapy with no additional safety signals. These OS results have been made available to the FDA.
Previous wording
Based on the results of the HARMONi clinical trial, we submitted a Biologics License Application (“BLA”) in the fourth quarter of 2025 to seek approval for ivonescimab plus chemotherapy for this proposed indication. 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 the ivonescimab regimen offers a potential treatment option for patients impacted by EGFR-mutant NSCLC in this setting with a favorable benefit-risk profile despite the lack of a statistically significant OS benefit. 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.

Enrollment has been completed in both the squamous and non-squamous cohorts.
Previous wording
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.

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 enrolled approximately 600 patients with squamous NSCLC and 1,000 patients with non-squamous NSCLC.
Previous wording
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.
Current wording
As a result of having two separate ITT 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.
Previous wording
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. 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.

Ivonescimab is a novel potential first-in-class PD-1 / VEGF-A 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 the protein vascular endothelial growth factor-A (“VEGF”) from binding to VEGF receptors. Ivonescimab is designed to potentially allow cooperative binding of the intended targets, such that the binding of VEGF increases the binding affinity of PD-1. 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.

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.

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.

Based on data published by Akeso at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (“ASCO 2024”) and in a publication in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) in the HARMONi-A study, in a single-region (China), randomized, double-blinded Phase III study in patients with NSCLC who have progressed following an EGFR-TKI, ivonescimab achieved its primary endpoint of PFS when combined with doublet chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin). Patients experienced a 54% reduction in disease progression or death as compared to placebo plus doublet-chemotherapy (HR: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.34 - 0.62; p<0.001). In a pre-specified subgroup analysis of patients who received a previous third-generation TKI, a hazard ratio of 0.48 was observed. At the primary OS analysis of HARMONi-A, ivonescimab achieved a hazard ratio of 0.74 (95% CI: 0.58, 0.95, p=0.019), demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful OS benefit, which was presented in November 2025 at the 2025 Annual Meeting for the Society for Immunotherapy for Cancer. Ivonescimab demonstrated an acceptable and manageable safety profile, which was consistent with previous studies. There were nine patients (5.6%) who discontinued ivonescimab plus chemotherapy due to TRAEs compared to four patients (2.5%) who discontinued chemotherapy plus placebo due to TRAEs. No TRAEs resulted in the death of a patient in either arm in this Phase III study. Full results were published in JAMA (Fang et al. 2024).

Based on data published by Akeso at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting (“ASCO”) and in a publication in the Journal of the American Medical Association (“JAMA”) in the HARMONi-A study, in a single-region (China), randomized, double-blinded Phase III study in patients with NSCLC who have progressed following an EGFR-TKI, ivonescimab achieved its primary endpoint of PFS when combined with doublet chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin). Patients experienced a 54% reduction in disease progression or death as compared to placebo plus doublet-chemotherapy (HR: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.34 - 0.62; p<0.001). In a pre-specified subgroup analysis of patients who received a previous third-generation TKI, a hazard ratio of 0.48 was observed. At the primary OS analysis of HARMONi-A, ivonescimab achieved a hazard ratio of 0.74 (95% CI: 0.58, 0.95, p=0.019), demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful OS benefit, which was presented in November 2025 at the 2025 Annual Meeting for the Society for Immunotherapy for Cancer. Ivonescimab demonstrated an acceptable and manageable safety profile, which was consistent with previous studies. There were nine patients (5.6%) who discontinued ivonescimab plus chemotherapy due to TRAEs compared to four patients (2.5%) who discontinued chemotherapy plus placebo due to TRAEs. No TRAEs resulted in the death of a patient in either arm in this Phase III study. Full results were published in JAMA (Fang et al. 2024).
