Compugen Ltd. to Present Anti-Tumor Activity and Safety Data of COM701, COM902 and Pembrolizumab Combination in Patients with Platinum Resistant Ovarian Cancer at SITC 2024 Compugen Ltd. announced that data supporting the anti-tumor activity and safety profile of the triple combination COM701, COM902 and pembrolizumab in advanced heavily pre-treated patients with platinum resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) has been published as an abstract released by the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC). This data and additional clinical data will be presented by Oladapo Yeku, M.D., Ph.D., FACP, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and Director of Translational Research, Gynecologic Oncology Program, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, and an investigator in this study, as a poster presentation at the 39 Annual Meeting of SITC, taking place between November 8-10, 2024, in Houston, Texas. The data from this study along with data Compugen previously presented, demonstrate that COM701 is active, has a favorable safety profile, and is a differentiated immune checkpoint inhibitor. COM701 in combination with COM902 (Fc reduced anti-TIGIT) and pembrolizum AB (anti-PD-1) resulted in durable objective responses in late-stage ovarian cancer patients typically not responsive to other immunotherapeutic agents. There is a gap in care for women with platinum sensitive ovarian cancer, who respond to chemotherapy but are ineligible for or cannot tolerate additional maintenance treatment. These patients have a less compromised immune system, providing the opportunity to harness the unique mechanism of action of COM701 to potentially change the disease trajectory improving progression free survival.

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 3.4% 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.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.9% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (44% average weekly change).

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Israeli stocks, typically moving 9.0% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility 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. It may also indicate 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (9.0% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 4.6% per year for the foreseeable future.

Compugen Ltd. Announces to Present New Data At Sitc 2023 Suggesting Leading Edge of Anti-Il18 Binding Protein Antibody, Com503, in Treating Cancer Compugen Ltd. announced it will present new data on its lead pre-clinical asset COM503, a potential first-in-class anti-IL18BP antibody in an oral presentation at the 38th Annual Meeting of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC), taking place 3-5 November 2023, San Diego, CA. Key data that will be presented at SITC include: Antibody inhibition of IL-18BP prevented tumor growth across multiple mouse tumor models. Antibody induced inhibition of IL-18BP resulted in a significant increase in functional immune-cells such as the effector T-cells and induced a T cell clonal expansion in the tumor, as well as an immune memory response. Engineered IL-18 cytokine generated peripheral inflammatory responses evident by increased serum cytokines in contrast with an anti-IL-18BP antibody approach which modulated the tumor microenvironment without affecting the periphery. Oral presentation details: Abstract Title: Harnessing natural IL-18 activity through IL-18BP blockade reshapes the tumor microenvironment for potent anti-tumor immune response.

Compugen Doses First Patient in Phase 1 Combination Study of COM902 and COM701 in Patients with Advanced Malignancies Compugen Ltd. announced that the first patient has been dosed in its Phase 1 clinical study evaluating the dual combination of COM902, the company's potential best-in-class, high-affinity anti-TIGIT antibody and COM701, Compugen's first-in-class anti-PVRIG antibody in patients with advanced malignancies who have exhausted all available standard therapies. The COM902 monotherapy dose escalation arm of this Phase 1 open-label study is complete. The Phase 1 study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of COM902 alone and in combination with COM701 in patients with advanced malignancies who have exhausted all available standard therapies. The COM902 monotherapy dose expansion study, will be in subjects with select tumor types, preferably multiple myeloma. The COM902 in combination with COM701 dose expansion arm is expected to be in select tumor types, PD1 refractory or relapsing HNSCC, NSCLC and CRC (MSS). The study is being conducted in multiple leading oncology clinical centers in the United States with an estimated enrolment of 90 participants across all arms. COM902 is a high affinity, fully human antibody that blocks the interaction of TIGIT with PVR, its ligand, and consequently enhances T cell function. Data suggests that COM902 has in vitro activity comparable or superior to TIGIT antibodies in clinical development. It is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical studies in patients with advanced malignancies who have exhausted all available standard therapies. Compugen has demonstrated in preclinical studies that simultaneous inhibition of TIGIT and PVRIG, the two coinhibitory arms of the DNAM axis, can increase antitumor immune responses, which may be further enhanced with the addition of PD-1 blockade. These data suggest that treatment with COM701 and COM902, targeting PVRIG and TIGIT, respectively, alone or in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor, has the potential to expand immuno-oncology treatment to patient populations who are non-responsive or refractory to existing immunotherapies. The discovery of TIGIT, using the company's computational discovery platform, was published by Compugen in October 2009 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). COM701 is a humanized antibody that binds with high affinity to PVRIG, a novel immune checkpoint discovered computationally by Compugen, blocking the interaction with its ligand, PVRL2. Blockade of PVRIG by COM701 has demonstrated in preclinical studies potent, reproducible enhancement of T cell activation, consistent with the desired mechanism of action of activating T cells in the tumor microenvironment to generate anti-tumor immune responses. PVRIG and TIGIT, also discovered by Compugen's computational discovery platform in 2009, constitute parallel immune checkpoint pathways that counteract DNAM, a costimulatory molecule on T cells and NK cells. As such, preclinical data suggest that the inhibition of PVRIG together with TIGIT and/or PD-1 has the potential to further enhance anti-tumor immune response and improve patient outcomes in a broad variety of tumor types.

Compugen Ltd. Updates Data from Phase 1 Study of COM701 Compugen Ltd. updated data from its Phase 1 dose escalation and expansion study of COM701 as a monotherapy, and in a dose escalation combination study with Opdivo® (nivolumab). COM701 and Opdivo® combination arm dose escalation: In 15 evaluable patients, COM701 in combination with Opdivo® was well-tolerated with no reported dose-limiting toxicities up to the fifth and final dose cohort of COM701 20 mg/kg and Opdivo® 480 mg, both IV Fourth Quarter weeks. The disease control rate (DCR) was 66.7% (N=10) with best responses of complete response (CR) 6.7% (N=1), partial response (PR) 6.7% (N=1) and stable disease (SD) 53.3% (N=8). Previously reported patient with anal squamous cell carcinoma with confirmed CR remains on treatment at 96 weeks (22 months). This patient had three prior lines of therapy and enrolled within one month after progression on Opdivo® monotherapy. Previously reported patient with renal cell carcinoma with best response of SD remains on treatment at 75 weeks. A patient with microsatellite stable (MSS)-colorectal cancer with durable confirmed partial response previously reported at AACR 2020 remained on study treatment for 44 weeks. COM701 monotherapy arm: Overall 36 patients enrolled. 16 patients, all comers in dose escalation and 20 patients in dose expansion; four patients of each: endometrial cancer, NSCLC, ovarian cancer, breast cancer and colorectal cancer (MSS). The disease control rate (DCR) was 47.2% (N=17) with best responses of partial response (PR) 2.7% (N=1) and stable disease (SD) 44.4% (N=16). Previously reported patient with primary peritoneal cancer (platinum resistant, MSS) with confirmed PR remains on study treatment at 79 weeks (18 months). Patient had three prior lines of standard-of-care treatment. Archival pre-treatment biopsy data revealed the patient was PD-L1 negative, with PVRL2 expression on tumor and endothelial cells, with an immune desert phenotype (i.e, no immune cells detected prior to treatment). Peripheral blood assessment showed immune activation as measured by immune cell proliferation and IFN? induction prior to tumor shrinkage. Demonstrated durable antitumor activity in extensively pretreated population: Durable responses to treatment (CR, PR or SD = 6 months) in 10/51 (19%) patients. Best responses of CR, PR, or SD were observed in 11/21 (52%) patients with prior treatment refractory disease. Best response of CR, PR or SD were observed in 13/18 (72%) patients with prior treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Preliminary biomarker results demonstrate immune activation with COM701 treatment: Peripheral pharmacodynamic changes were measured via immune cell proliferation and cytokine levels in peripheral blood before and on treatment. After one treatment cycle, patients treated with COM701 monotherapy showed a trend of increased proliferation of effector memory CD8+ T cells (average change 87%), an immune cell population that expresses high level of PVRIG and are critical in driving anti-tumor immunity. Similar results were observed in the combination arm. Proliferation of NK-T cells, an immune cell population that expresses high level of PVRIG and plays a role in antitumor activity, increased significantly one day after COM701 monotherapy treatment, with a similar trend observed in the combination arm. Levels of IFN?, a cytokine which plays a key role in antitumor immunity, were upregulated following combination treatment of COM701 with Opdivo®, with a dose response trend with increasing doses of COM701, suggesting the observed activity is derived from the combination treatment and not Opdivo® alone. Anti-tumor activity was observed in PD-L1 low, PVRL2 positive patients, suggesting COM701 treatment may drive anti-tumor immunity even in patients with less inflamed tumor microenviroment.

Compugen Publishes Preclinical Data Demonstrating Therapeutic Potential of COM902 in Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy Compugen Ltd. announced the publication of a peer-reviewed article titled "COM902, a Novel Therapeutic Antibody Targeting TIGIT Augments Anti-Tumor T Cell Function in Combination with PVRIG or PD-1 Pathway Blockade" in Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy. The preclinical data discussed in the paper highlight the potential of COM902, Compugen's anti-TIGIT therapeutic antibody, to enhance anti-tumor immune responses. Article highlights include: Development and characterization of COM902, a fully human anti-TIGIT antibody which binds specifically to TIGIT and disrupts the binding of TIGIT with PVR, the cognate ligand of TIGIT. Expression of TIGIT, a checkpoint within the DNAM-1 axis discovered in 2009 by Compugen and others, is induced on lymphocytes infiltrating the tumor microenvironment, including Tregs, effector T cells, and NK cells in diverse solid tumors. PVR is expressed in a large setof solid tumors. COM902, designed to have reduced Fc receptor engagement to avoid potential depletion of TIGIT-expressing effector T cells, does not demonstrate T cell depletion activity in-vitro or in-vivo, making it unlikely to elicit direct depletion of TIGIT-expressing effector T cells, which are important for anti-tumor activity. Blockade of TIGIT/PVR binding by COM902 enhances human T and NK cell function in vitro. This effect can be increased by dual blockade of COM902 with either an anti-PVRIG antibody, COM701, or an anti-PD-1 antibody. In vivo, in murine tumor models, COM902 combined with anti-PVRIG or anti-PD-L1 antibodies enhances anti-tumor lymphocyte responses and inhibits tumor growth.
