Precigen Sets 2026 Shareholder Vote on Board, Auditor and Expanded Equity Plan After Papzimeos Approval Precigen has set June 18, 2026 for its virtual Annual Meeting, with shareholders asked to elect nine directors and ratify Deloitte & Touche LLP as independent auditor.
Shareholders will vote on an advisory basis on 2025 executive compensation and on an amendment to the 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan to add 7 million shares for equity awards.
The company highlights FDA approval and the initial launch of Papzimeos for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, along with progress in manufacturing execution, as key 2025 milestones.
For you as an investor, the proxy items point to two main themes: governance continuity and capital structure for employee incentives. Board elections and auditor ratification are routine but still give you a chance to signal views on oversight and financial reporting. The proposed 7 million-share increase under the Omnibus Incentive Plan would expand the pool available for stock-based compensation, which can help attract and retain talent but also affects potential dilution.
Management’s emphasis on FDA approval and the early launch of Papzimeos, together with manufacturing progress, shows where operational attention has been. The Board’s unanimous recommendation in favor of all proposals signals internal alignment with these plans. When reviewing the proxy, it can be useful to weigh how the enlarged equity plan, executive pay decisions, and current governance structure line up with your expectations for how Precigen manages its pipeline, commercial execution and longer-term objectives.

Precigen, Inc. Announces the Publication for The Laryngoscope Recommends PAPZIMEOS (zopapogene imadenovec) as the New Standard of Care First-Line Treatment for Adults with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Precigen, Inc. announced the publication of a new expert consensus paper sponsored by the Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Foundation (RRPF) and authored by 16 leading physicians in the field of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) has been published in The Laryngoscope, one of the field's most respected peer-reviewed journals.

The recommendations position HPV-specific immunotherapy, PAPZIMEOS, as the preferred first-line treatment for adults With RRP and are grounded in the collective clinical experience of the authors, a comprehensive review of the published literature, and the availability of PAPZIMEOS, the first and only FDA-approved HPV-specific immunotherapy. The consensus paper was developed with direct input from RRP leadership, including patients and caregivers, and reflects a shared commitment to advancing patient-centered care in RRP. The authors note that the availability of an FDA-approved HPV-specific Immunotherapy, PAPZIME OS, makes it possible for the first time to establish a modern management algorithm focused on durable disease control rather than repeated surgical interventions to achieve symptoms.

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 21% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (20% average weekly change). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (21% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$6.8m sold). Anuncio • Nov 07

Precigen, Inc. Announces Long-Term Follow-Up Results Highlighting Ongoing Durable Complete Responses After Treatment with Papzimeos Precigen, Inc. announced long-term follow-up data demonstrating durable responses to PAPZIMEOS™? (zopapogene imadenovec-drba) for the treatment of adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). These data were presented at the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNSF) 2025 Annual Meeting. PAPZIMEOS was granted full approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in August 2025, becoming the first and only approved therapy for the treatment of adults with RRP. PAPZIMEOS approval was supported by results from the pivotal study, which successfully met its primary safety and pre-specified primary efficacy endpoints. PAPZimeOS was well-tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities and no treatment-related adverse events greater than Grade 2. 51% (18 out of 35) of study patients achieved complete response (95% CI: 34-69%), requiring no surgeries in the 12-month period after treatment with PAPZIMEOS. Results from the pivotal clinical study of PAPZIMEOS were published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine. Key data highlights from the AAO-HNSF presentation: 15 out of the 18 complete responders (83%) in the pivotal study demonstrated ongoing complete responses as of the September 19, 2025 data cutoff, with: Median duration of follow-up of 36 months (range: 27-37 months); Median duration of complete response yet to be reached; and No new safety events observed during long-term follow-up. And for the healthcare system, durable responses translate into fewer procedures, reduced complications, and lower long-term burden of care. RRP is a rare, debilitating, and potentially life-threatening disease of the upper and lower respiratory tract caused by chronic HPV 6 or HPV 11 infection. PAPZIMEOS is the first and only FDA-approved therapy for the treatment of adult with RRP and the first and only approved therapy to address the root cause of RRP. Discovered and designed in Precigen's labs using Precigen's proprietary AdenoVerse therapeutic platform, PAPZIMEOS represents a new therapeutic paradigm for RRP. Recent Insider Transactions • Oct 02

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: US$0 This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (21% average weekly change). Negative equity (-US$5.9m). Minor Risks Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$0 sold). Revenue is less than US$5m (US$4.3m revenue). Recent Insider Transactions Derivative • Sep 30

Precigen, Inc. Announces Full FDA Approval of PAPZIMEOS (Zopapogene Imadenovec-Drba) Precigen, Inc. announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved PAPZIMEOS(zopapogene imadenovec-drba) for the treatment of adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). PAPZIMEOS is the first and only FDA-approved therapy for the treatment of adults with RRP. Precigen completed submission of the rolling Biologics License Application (BLA) in December 2024 under an accelerated approval pathway; however, the FDA has granted PAPZIMEOS full approval, which does not require a confirmatory clinical trial. PAPZIMEOS is a non-replicating adenoviral vector-based immunotherapy designed to express a fusion antigen comprising selected regions of human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11 proteins—the root cause of RRP. PAPZIMEOS is delivered via four subcutaneous injections over a 12-week interval. RRP is a rare, debilitating, and potentially life-threatening disease of the upper and lower respiratory tract caused by chronic HPV 6 or HPV 11 infection. RRP can lead to severe voice disturbance, a compromised airway, and recurrent post-obstructive pneumonias. Management of RRP has primarily consisted of repeated surgeries, which do not address the root cause of the disease and can be associated with significant morbidity as well as significant patient and health system burden. The approval is supported by data from the open-label, single-arm, pivotal study in adult patients with RRP: The pivotal study successfully met its primary safety and pre-specified primary efficacy endpoints. 51% (18 out of 35) of study patients achieved Complete Response, requiring no surgeries in the 12 months after treatment with PAPZIMEOS. These Complete Responses remained durable for over 12 months. Of the 18 patients with a Complete Response in the ongoing study, 15 patients evaluated at 24 months demonstrated continued Complete Response. PAPZIMEOS was well-tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities and no treatment-related adverse events greater than Grade 2. PAPZIMEOS induced HPV 6/11-specific T cell responses in RRP study patients with a significantly greater expansion of peripheral HPV-specific T cells in responders compared with non-responders.

Precigen, Inc. Announces FDA Grants Priority Review to its BLA for PRGN-2012 for Treatment of Adults with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis with PDUFA Target Action Date Set for August 27, 2025 Precigen, Inc. announced the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted the company's biologics license application (BLA) for PRGN-2012 (nonproprietary name: zopapogene imadenovec), an investigational AdenoVerse gene therapy for the treatment of adults with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). The FDA granted priority review to the BLA and set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of August 27, 2025. The FDA has indicated that they are not currently planning to hold an advisory committee meeting to discuss this application. PRGN-2012 is designed to elicit immune responses directed against cells infected with human papillomavirus (HPV) 6 or HPV 11. PRGN-2012 received Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Orphan Drug Designation, and an accelerated approval pathway from the FDA, and Orphan Drug Designation from the European Commission. If approved, PRGN-2012 would be the first and only FDA-approved therapeutic for the treatment of adults with RRP. RRP is a rare, difficult-to-treat, lifelong neoplastic disease of the upper and lower respiratory tracts caused by infection with HPV 6 or HPV 11 that can be fatal. Currently, there is no cure for RRP and the current standard-of-care is repeated surgeries, which do not address the underlying cause of disease and are associated with significant morbidity. As a result, the cycle of recurrence and surgery continues and patients can require hundreds of lifetime surgeries. The cumulative risk of laryngeal injury increases with each RRP surgery, particularly with patients requiring five or more lifetime surgeries. There is high unmet need for a therapeutic alternative to prevent these irreversible surgery-related injuries. The BLA is supported by data from the pivotal Phase 1/2 clinical study (NCT04724980), which were presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting and published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine. The pivotal study met its primary safety and efficacy endpoints, with more than 50% of patients achieving Complete Response and more than 85% of patients experiencing a decrease in surgical interventions in the year after PRGN-2012 treatment compared to the year prior to treatment. PRGN-2012 was well-tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities and no treatment-related adverse events greater than Grade 2. Primary endpoints included safety and Complete Response rate defined as the percentage of patients who require no RRP surgeries in the 12-month period after PRGN-2012 treatment completion. Key secondary endpoints included HPV-specific immune responses, extent of papilloma growth as measured by Derkay scoring, and quality of life as measured by Vocal Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10).

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of American stocks, typically moving 12% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change).

Precigen Completes Submission of BLA with Request for Priority Review to the FDA for PRGN-2012 for the Treatment of Adults with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Precigen, Inc. announced the completion of the rolling submission for a biologics license application (BLA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for PRGN-2012 (INN: zopapogene imadenovec†) for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). The submission is in the initial 60 day review period, during which time the FDA will decide whether to accept the BLA for further review and set the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) action date. The BLA included a request for priority review, which, if granted, would reduce the review timeline from the standard 10-month to a priority 6-month review from the date the submission is accepted by the FDA. PRGN-2012 is an investigational AdenoVerse gene therapy designed to elicit immune responses directed against cells infected with human papillomavirus (HPV) 6 or HPV 11. PRGN-2012 received Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Orphan Drug Designation, and an accelerated approval pathway from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and Orphan Drug Designation from the European Commission. PRGN-2012 has the potential to be the first FDA-approved therapeutic for the treatment of adults with RRP. RRP is a rare, difficult-to-treat, lifelong neoplastic disease of the upper and lower respiratory tracts caused by infection with HPV 6 or HPV 11 that can be fatal. Currently, there is no cure for RRP and the current standard-of-care is repeated surgeries, which do not address the underlying cause of disease and are associated with significant morbidity. As a result, the cycle of recurrences and surgeries continues and patients can require hundreds of lifetime surgeries. The BLA is supported by data from the pivotal Phase 1/2 clinical study of PRGN-2012 for the treatment of RRP (NCT04724980), which evaluated the safety and efficacy of PRGN-2012 in adult RRP patients. Of the 38 total patients enrolled in the study, three patients received four administrations of PRGN-2012 at 1x 1011 particle units (PU)/dose and 35 patients received four administrations of PRGN-2012 at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of 5 x 1011 PU/dose over a 12 week treatment period via subcutaneous injection. Primary endpoints included safety and Complete Response rate defined as the percentage of patients who require no RRP surgeries in the 12-month period after PRGN-2012 treatment completion. Key secondary endpoints included HPV-specific immune responses, extent of papilloma growth as measured by Derkay scoring, and quality of life as measured by Vocal Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10). As reported in the results from the pivotal study presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting, the primary safety and efficacy endpoints were met.

Precigen Receives Non-Compliance Letter from Nasdaq Regarding Bid Price Rule On November 1, 2024, Precigen, Inc. (the Company"), received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq") notifying the Company that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the Bid Price Rule"), as the minimum bid price for the Company's listed securities was less than $1 for the previous 30 consecutive business days. The Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until April 30, 2025 (the Compliance Date"), to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. To regain compliance, the bid price of the Company's common stock must close at $1 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days before the Compliance Date. The deficiency letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company's common stock from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. If the Company does not regain compliance by the Compliance Date, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar-day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would be required to transfer the listing of its common stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market, provided that the Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and notifies Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split if necessary. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by the Compliance Date and it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule during the additional compliance period, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible for an additional compliance period at that time, the Staff will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the Staff's delisting determination to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel. The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, which could include seeking to effect a reverse stock split. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. Major Estimate Revision • Aug 21

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 13% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change).

Precigen, Inc. Announces Groundbreaking Pivotal Study Data for PRGN-2012 in Patients with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis in Which More Than Half of Patients Achieved Complete Response Precigen, Inc. released positive Phase 1/2 pivotal study results for the investigational PRGN-2012 off-the-shelf (OTS) AdenoVerse gene therapy in patients with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). Results were presented in a late-breaking oral presentation at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting by Scott M. Norberg, DO, Associate Research Physician, Center for Immuno-Oncology, Center for Cancer Research, National Cancer Institute and a lead investigator for the PRGN-2012 clinical study. The Company will host a webcast event on June 3, 2024 at 6:00 PM CT /7:00 PM ET to detail the results presented at ASCO. Pivotal Study Design and Endpoints: The Phase 1/2 clinical study (clinical trial identifier: NCT04724980) evaluated safety and efficacy of PRGN-2012. The study design included an initial 3+3 dose escalation cohort to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). Adult RRP patients who had three or more surgeries in the prior 12 months were eligible for the study. The Phase 1/2 study enrolled a total of 38 patients. Of these, 3 patients received four administrations of PRGN-2012 at 1x 1011 particle units (PU)/dose and 35 patients received four administrations of PRGN-2012 at RP2D (5 x 1011 PU/dose) over a 12 week treatment period via subcutaneous injection. Primary endpoints included safety and Complete Response rate defined as the percentage of patients who require no RRP surgeries in the 12-month period after PRGN-2012 treatment completion. Key secondary endpoints included HPV-specific immune responses, extent of papilloma growth as measured by Derkay scoring, and quality of life measurement as measured by Vocal Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10). Patient Characteristics: Baseline patient characteristics of the 35 adult patients included a median age of 49 years (range: 20-88); 20 of the patients were male and 15 were female. Patients had a median of 4 surgeries (range: 3-10) in the 12 months before PRGN-2012 treatment initiation. Average years since RRP diagnosis was 20 (range: 1-65) with 12 and 23 patients with juvenile and adult onset RRP, respectively. Clinical Efficacy: Primary efficacy endpoint analysis demonstrated that 51% (18 out of 35) (95% CI: 34-69) patients achieved Complete Response, defined as no need for RRP surgeries in the 12-month period following completion of PRGN-2012 treatment. The Complete Response rate was 50% (6 out of 12) and 52% (12 out of 23) in the Phase 1 and Phase 2 portions of the study, respectively (TABLE 1). Complete Responses were durable. Median durability of response has not yet been reached with median follow up of 20 months as of the data cutoff date of May 20, 2024. PRGN-2012 treatment significantly (p < 0.0001) reduced the need for surgeries in RRP patients compared to pre-treatment history (FIGURE 1). PRGN-2012 treatment reduced the need for RRP surgeries in 86% (30 out of 35) of patients compared to their pre-treatment history. RRP surgeries were reduced from a median of 4 (range: 3-10) in the 12 months pre-treatment to 0 (range: 0-7) in the 12 months post PRGN-2012 treatment completion. PRGN-2012 treatment showed significant (p < 0.0001) improvement in anatomical Derkay scores, a tool used for research purposes to quantify RRP severity based on involvement of laryngeal structures, with mean Derkay scores reducing from 9 (range: 5-19) at baseline to 1 (range: 0-5) at 24 weeks post-treatment in patients with Complete Response. Quality of life, as evaluated using the validated VHI-10, significantly (p < 0.0001) improved from a mean of 25 (range: 12-38) at baseline to 7 (range: 0-30) at 24 weeks post PRGN-2012 treatment in patients with Complete Response. PRGN-2012 treatment induced HPV 6/11-specific T cell responses in RRP patients with a significantly greater expansion of peripheral HPV-specific T cells observed in responders compared with non-responders. Safety: PRGN-2012 treatment was well-tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities and no treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) greater than Grade 2 (TABLE 2). All patients received four administrations of PRGN-2012 at the intended dose levels. TRAEs were mostly mild with no treatment-related serious adverse events reported. The most common TRAE was injection site reaction. Other common TRAEs occurring in more than one subject were fatigue, chills, and fever. There was no meaningful anti-drug antibody response with repeat administrations of PRGN-2012. Price Target Changed • Jun 04

Precigen, Inc. Receives Orphan Drug Designation for PRGN- 2012 for the Treatment of Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis from the European Commission Precigen, Inc. announced that the European Commission (EC) has granted Orphan Drug Designation for the Company's first-in-class investigational medicine PRGN-2012 for the treatment of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). PRGN-2012 is a rare, difficult-to-treat and sometimes fatal neoplastic disease of the upper and lower respiratory tracts caused by human papillomavirus type 6 (HPV 6) or HPV type 11 (HPV 11). PRGN-2012 received Orphan Drug Designation from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Precigen was the first company to receive Breakthrough Therapy Designation and an accelerated approval pathway from the FDA for an RRP treatment. PRGN-2012 is an innovative therapeutic vaccine with optimized antigen design that uses gorilla adenovector technology, part of Precigen's proprietary AdenoVersetm platform, to elicit immune responses directed against cells infected with HPV 6 or HPV 11. Gorilla adenovectors have numerous advantages, including the ability for repeat administration, the inability to replicate in vivo, and the ability to deliver a large genetic payload. Orphan Drug Designation in the European Union (EU) is granted by the EC based on a positive opinion issued by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products. Medicines intended for the treatment, diagnosis or prevention of seriously debilitating or life-threatening conditions that affect fewer than five in 10,000 people in the European Union (EU). The Orphan Drug Designation allows companies certain regulatory, financial and commercial incentives to develop medicines for rare diseases where there are no satisfactory treatment options. PRGN-2012 is currently under investigation in a Phase 1/2 pivotal single-arm study in adult patients with RRP in the United States (clinical trial identifier: NCT04724980). A Phase 2 data presentation is anticipated in the second quarter of 2024 and a planned Biologics License Application (BLA) submission under an accelerated approval pathway with the FDA is anticipated in the second half of 2024. Commercial readiness preparations are underway for a potential launch in the United States in 2025. Recent Insider Transactions • Dec 31

Precigen, Inc Announces FDA Confirmation that the Ongoing Phase 1/2 Study of PRGN-2012 AdenoVerse Immunotherapy Will Serve as the Pivotal Study to Support Accelerated Approval Precigen, Inc. announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has agreed that the ongoing Phase 1/2 single arm study (NCT04724980) of the first-in- class investigational PRGN-2012 AdenoVerse(TM) immunotherapy for the treatment of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) will serve as pivotal for the purpose of filing an accelerated approval request for licensure. The FDA also confirmed no additional randomized, placebo-controlled trial will be required to support submission of a biologics license application (BLA). Based on the FDA guidance, the Company plans to initiate a confirmatory study prior to submission of the BLA. The FDA has confirmed that the current primary endpoint for the ongoing Phase 1/2 study, which is Complete Response rate (percentage of patients with no surgical interventions during the 12 months following treatment with PRGN-2012), along with an immunological surrogate marker demonstrating an induction of HPV-specific T cell responses following PRGN- 2012 treatment, is acceptable for the accelerated approval request. PRGN-2012 is an innovative therapeutic vaccine with optimized antigen design that uses Precigen's gorilla adenovector technology, part of Precigen's proprietary AdenoVerse platform, to elicit immune responses directed against cells infected with HPV 6 or HPV 11. Gorilla adenovectors have numerous advantages, including the ability for repeat administration, the inability to replicate in vivo, which may improve safety, and the ability to deliver a large genetic payload. The FDA granted PRGN-2012 Breakthrough Therapy Designation and Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of RRP. Data from the Phase 1 portion of the study showed that 50% of adult RRP patients (who had >=3 surgeries to treat the disease in the year prior to treatment) were "surgery-free" (Complete Response) after PRGN-2012 treatment during the 12 month follow-up. All complete responders continue to be surgery-free with a minimum follow-up of 18 months post- treatment. Precigen has completed enrollment and dosing in the Phase 2 portion of the study (N=23) bringing the total number of enrolled patients to 35 at the recommended Phase 2 dose. Patient follow up is currently ongoing and data collection is anticipated to be completed by the second quarter of 2024. Recent Insider Transactions Derivative • Aug 06

Precigen, Inc. Receives Breakthrough Therapy Designation for PRGN- 2012 Adenoverse Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Precigen, Inc. announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the first-in-class investigational PRGN-2012 AdenoVerse immunotherapy for the treatment of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP).FDA's Breakthrough Therapy Designation expedites the development and review of medicines which are intended to treat serious or life-threatening diseases, and in which preliminary clinical evidence demonstrates substantial improvement on clinically significant endpoints over available therapies. PRGN-2012 incorporates optimized antigen design that uses gorilla adenovector technology, part of Precigen's proprietary AdenoVerse platform, to elicit immune responses directed against cells infected with human papillomavirus type 6 (HPV 6) or HPV type 11 (HPV 11). Gorilla adenovectors have numerous advantages, including the ability for repeat administration, the inability to replicate in vivo, and the ability to deliver a large genetic payload. PRGN-2012 has previously been granted Orphan Drug Designation in patients with RRP by the FDA. The Breakthrough Therapy Designation was informed by the clinical evidence for PRGN-2012 generated in the Phase 1 study (NCT04724980), which was presented at Precigen's most recent R&D day, and showed strong response at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients who had an average of 5.8 RRP surgeries (range 3 -- 10) in the year prior to PRGN-2012 treatment. Patient follow up is ongoing as are discussions with the FDA regarding potential rapid development paths to enable a future submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA). Precigen is a dedicated discovery and clinical stage biopharmaceutical company advancing the next generation of gene and cell therapies using precision technology to target the most urgent and intractable diseases in core therapeutic areas of immuno-oncology, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases.

Precigen Announces Positive Phase 1 Data for PRGN-3005 Autologous UltraCAR-T Cells Manufactured Overnight for Infusion Next Day to Advanced Stage Platinum Resistant Ovarian Cancer Patients Precigen, Inc. presented positive data at the 2023 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting from the Phase 1 portion of the Phase 1/1b clinical study evaluating safety and efficacy of PRGN-3005 UltraCAR-T® in advanced stage platinum resistant ovarian cancer patients (Abstract# 5590 [2]). The presentation was delivered by John B. Liao, MD, PhD, Cancer Vaccine Institute, University of Washington Medicine, and a lead investigator for the PRGN-3005 clinical trial. PRGN-3005 UltraCAR-T is an autologous chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy manufactured using non-viral gene delivery and is under investigation for the treatment of patients with advanced, recurrent platinum resistant ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. PRGN-3005 utilizes Precigen's transformative UltraCAR-T therapeutic platform, which eliminates ex vivo expansion and reduces manufacturing time to allow for rapid next day administration of UltraCAR-T cells following non-viral gene transfer. PRGN-3005 UltraCAR-T is a multigenic CAR-T cell investigational therapy utilizing Precigen's advanced non-viral gene delivery system to co-express a chimeric antigen receptor, membrane-bound interleukin-15 (mbIL15), and a kill switch for better precision and control. Conducted in collaboration with the University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the Phase 1 study has completed dose escalation, which evaluated the safety and efficacy of PRGN-3005 administered either via intraperitoneal (IP) or intravenous (IV) infusion, in the absence of lymphodepletion (LD) or IV following lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide only (clinical trial identifier: NCT03907527). The study population includes patients with advanced stage (III/IV) recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer who are platinum resistant and have progressed after receiving standard-of-care therapies or are not eligible to receive available therapies with known clinical benefit (Table 1). The mean age of patients in the study was 57.4 in the IP arm without lymphodepletion, 67.3 in the IV arm without lymphodepletion and 62.7 in the IV arm with lymphodepletion. Patients were heavily pretreated with a median of greater than or equal to 8 prior lines of therapy across all arms. Patients had significantly advanced stage disease with a high baseline tumor burden with most patients having distant metastases, including liver, spleen, bladder and lung. Anuncio • Jun 04
Precigen Announces Positive Phase 1 Data for Off-the-Shelf PRGN-2009 AdenoVerse Immunotherapy Alone and in Combination with an Investigational Checkpoint Inhibitor in Patients with Recurrent/Metastatic HPV-associated Cancers Precigen, Inc. presented positive clinical data from the Phase 1 study of the off-the-shelf (OTS) PRGN-2009 AdenoVerse immunotherapy alone and in combination with an investigational anti-PDL1/TGF-Beta Trap checkpoint inhibitor (bintrafusp alfa) in patients with recurrent/metastatic (R/M) HPV-associated cancers (clinical trial identifier: NCT04432597) at the 2023 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting (Abstract# 2628). PRGN-2009 is an OTS investigational immunotherapy utilizing the AdenoVerse platform designed to activate the immune system to recognize and target HPV-positive (HPV+) solid tumors. PRGN-2009 is a novel, replication-incompetent gorilla adenovirus targeting HPV 16/18. PRGN-2009 can be administered repeatedly leading to enhancement of T-cells without increasing neutralizing antibodies. PRGN-2009 is under development through a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement, or CRADA, within the Center for Immuno-Oncology (CIO), Center for Cancer Research (CCR), National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The Phase 1 trial is an open label, single-center study evaluating safety and response of PRGN-2009 as a monotherapy (Arm A) and in combination with bintrafusp alfa (Arm B) in previously treated adult patients with R/M HPV-associated cancers. In the monotherapy arm, patients (N = 6) enrolled in two sequential PRGN-2009 dose level cohorts, Dose Level 1 (1x1011 particle units (PU)) and Dose Level 2 (5x1011 PU) delivered via subcutaneous injection. In the combination arm, PRGN-2009 was administered at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in combination with bintrafusp alfa. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate safety and RP2D of PRGN-2009 and safety of PRGN-2009 in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor. Secondary objectives included Objective Response Rate (ORR) (per RECIST 1.1), and progression free survival (PFS). Seventeen adult patients were enrolled in the Phase 1 study. Patients received up to 20 doses of PRGN-2009 for a duration of 1.8 to 17.9 months in the monotherapy arm and 0.5 to 23.0 months in the combination arm. The median age in both arms was 61. The median number of prior lines of therapies in the metastatic setting was 2.5 for the monotherapy arm and 2 for the combination arm. All patients in the monotherapy arm (N=6) and 10 of 11 patients in the combination arm received prior immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. PRGN-2009 treatment in both monotherapy and combination arms was safe and well-tolerated. In both study arms, there was a low incidence of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) with only Grade 1 or 2 TRAEs in the monotherapy arm. The most common TRAEs in the monotherapy arm were injection site reactions, flu-like symptoms, fatigue and rash. In addition to these in the combination arm, patients also experienced Grade 1 or 2 epistaxis, headache, keratoacanthoma, fever, decreased lymphocyte count, anemia and oral hemorrhage. TRAEs reported in the combination arm were in line with the safety profile reported for bintrafusp alfa and only Grade 1 or 2 TRAEs were attributable to PRGN-2009 in the combination arm.

Precigen, Inc. Receives FDA Clearance of IND to Initiate Phase 2 Study of PRGN-2009 Off-the Shelf AdenoVerse Immunotherapy in Combination with Pembrolizumab to Treat Patients with Recurrent or Metastatic Cervical Cancer Precigen, Inc. announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the Investigational New Drug (IND) application to initiate a Phase 2 study of the first-in-class PRGN-2009 Off-the-Shelf (OTS) AdenoVerse™ immunotherapy in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer. The Phase 2 randomized, open-label, two-arm, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of PRGN-2009 in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab monotherapy in patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who are pembrolizumab resistant. The study will enroll approximately 46 patients who previously have been treated with pembrolizumab for recurrent or metastatic disease. In the Phase 1 study, PRGN-2009 was evaluated as a monotherapy (N=6) and in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor (N=11) in patients with recurrent or metastatic human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers. Interim Phase 1 data showed a favorable safety profile of repeated PRGN-2009 administrations in both the monotherapy and the combination arms with no dose limiting toxicities (DLTs). Interim Phase 1 data showed encouraging clinical activity with objective responses when combined with a checkpoint inhibitor in heavily pre-treated recurrent/metastatic cancer patients who had previously failed checkpoint inhibitor treatment. Full Phase 1 data will be presented at the 2023 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting on June 3, 2023 from 8:00 to 11:00 AM CT (Abstract # 2628). Patients in the Phase 2 study will be randomized 1:1 to the combination of PRGN-2009 and pembrolizumab (cohort 1) or pembrolizumab monotherapy (cohort 2). Patients randomized to the PRGN-2009 plus pembrolizumab cohort will receive PRGN-2009 via subcutaneous (SC) injection (5 x 1011 PU every 3 weeks for three administrations followed by administration each 6 weeks thereafter). Patients in the PRGN-2009 plus pembrolizumab cohort and pembrolizumab monotherapy cohort will receive pembrolizumab via intravenous (IV) infusion (400 mg every 6 weeks). Patients randomized to the pembrolizumab monotherapy cohort will be offered the option to crossover to the PRGN-2009 plus pembrolizumab cohort if certain conditions are met. The primary objective of the Phase 2 study is to assess the objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 following treatment with PRGN-2009 in combination with pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab monotherapy. Secondary objectives include the evaluation of safety and tolerability, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), best overall responses (BOR), Disease Control Rate (DCR), time to response and duration of response.
