The first data presented showcased recent advancements in the expansion of the Company's KRAS library, using a high-throughput approach to develop optimal affinity TCRs targeting the mKRAS G12D neoantigen in the context of HLA-A11 via Medigene’s proprietary E2E Platform. Further in vitro studies characterized the lead TCR candidate in terms of specificity, sensitivity, and safety (3S) while incorporating the PD1-41BB CSP. TCR-expressing T cells, when stimulated by mKRAS G12D-positive tumor cells, showed increased interferon gamma (IFN?) release. Reduced cancer cell survival was observed when mKRAS G12D-positive tumor cell lines from various origins were exposed to T cells co-expressing the rTCR mKRAS G12D-HLA-A11 and PD1-41BB CSP. These effects were specific to mKRAS G12D, with no impact on wild-type KRAS cells. The TCR demonstrated an excellent safety profile, with no off-target toxicity against an extensive panel of healthy cell types. Finally, in vitro data showed that co-expression of PD1-41BB CSP enhanced and sustained T cell function in an rTCR-specific manner, with gated activation that only occurred when the specific peptide-HLA complex was present on target cells, and not through PD-L1 expression alone. The second poster displayed the Company´s recently introduced universal TCR tagging and tracking combination technology UniTope & TraCR. Bioinformatic alignment of T cell receptor beta variable sequences enabled a six-amino-acid peptide (UniTope) to be predicted that is not found in natural TCR beta chains and has low immunogenicity. In parallel, an antibody was developed to specifically target this short aminbo acid peptide (TraCR) and further in vitro experiments demonstrated that TCR-T cells containing the UniTope sequence exhibited similar effects to those of TCR-T cells without the UniTope sequence. Integration of the UniTope sequence in a rTCR guarantees 100% co-expression of the tag and provides a significant advancement over current methods of detection of rTCRs in TCR-guided therapeutics. In vitro studies confirmed that insertion of UniTope did not alter expression or functionality of rTCRs. In addition, safety assessments confirmed that UniTope-modified rTCRs displayed the same high safety profile as un-modified rTCRs with respect to lack of recognition and killing of 16 healthy cell types.공시 • Aug 14Medigene AG Reaffirms Revenue Guidance for the Year 2024Medigene AG reaffirmed revenue guidance for the year 2024.

Medigene continually extends and strengthens its patent portfolio with new technologies and expands existing patents into additional jurisdictions. The Company maintains over 20 different patent families worldwide covering applications protecting Medigene’s 3S TCRs as well as its exclusive E2E Platform technologies.공시 • Jun 29Medigene AG to Report First Half, 2024 Results on Aug 14, 2024Medigene AG announced that they will report first half, 2024 results on Aug 14, 2024공시 • Jun 27Medigene Presents Efficient 6-Day TCR-T Therapy Production Process with High StemnessMedigene AG provided a detailed overview of its lead candidate MDG1015, a first-in-class 3rd generation T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy, at the 7th Cell and Gene Therapy In-Depth Focus Summit from June 27-28, 2024, in Beijing, China. MDG1015 advances towards the clinic and targets the cancer-testisantigens (CTA) NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1 /L Antigen Family Member-1a) and is armored and enhanced by the Company’s PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP). Targeting tumors expressing CTAs has shown promising clinical benefits, yet there remains a need to enhance efficacy, safety, and response durability not only in orphan indications but also in more common solid tumor types. Tackle these issues with a comprehensive strategy, starting with the development of a best-in-class TCR that is sensitive, specific, and safe (3S TCR). Further, innovative approach not only armors and enhances the TCR-T cell functionality by combining 3S TCRs with the PD1-41BB CSP but also places a significant emphasis on the drug product (DP) manufacturing process. This process is vital for producing effective, safe, and durable TCR-T therapies. A benefit of adding the PD1-41BB CSP to the Company´s 3S TCRs has been shown in multiple in vitro assays displaying elevated TCR-T cell proliferation, superior TCR-T cell functionality as well as quick and consistent elimination of tumor cells when compared to TCR-T cells lacking the CSP. It has been demonstrated this effect is “”gated” in that the enhancement occurs only after the 3S TCR binds to its specific target antigen. This is an important safety feature of Medigene’s 3rd generation TCR-T programs. In addition, Medigene devised an efficient 6-day manufacturing process that emphasizes enriching CD8+ T cells while preserving their stem-like properties. Research studies indicates that DPs with more stem-like characteristics demonstrate increased effectiveness and longer-lasting responses. By incorporating the PD1-41BB CSP, the necessity for CD4+ T cells within the DP is eliminated, allowing CD8+ T cells to independently produce the necessary cytokines that would have been provided by the CD4+ cells. This approach mitigates potential risks associated with CD4+ T cells, potentially enhancing both the safety and therapeutic benefits of the treatment. Medigene's lead TCR-T program, MDG1015, is scheduled for IND submission in the third quarter of 2024 and CTA submission in the fourth quarter of 2024. MDG1015's clinical indications were selected due to significant unmet medical needs, the presence of the target antigen, and/or PD-L1 expression. This decision resulted in the initial focus on evaluating gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma, and synovial sarcoma. Subject to additional financing, the first patient enrollment is anticipated by the end of 2024. Based on this timeline, the Company aims to unveil early data from the dose escalation phase in the fourth quarter of 2025. MDG1015 is a first-in-class, 3rd generation T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy targeting NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a, a well-recognized and validated cancer testis antigen, which is expressed in multiple tumor types. MDG1015 contains our optimal affinity 3S (sensitive, specific and safe) NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a TCR combined with our proprietary PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein that blocks the PD1/PD-L1 inhibitory axis while simultaneously activating the T cell through the well described -41BB pathway further enhancing the activity and persistence of the TCR-T cell in the hostile tumor microenvironment (TME). MDG1015 is currently undergoing IND/CTA enabling studies with IND approval expected in Third Quarter 2024 and CTA approval in Fourth Quarter 2024.공시 • May 22Medigene AG, Annual General Meeting, Jun 24, 2024Medigene AG, Annual General Meeting, Jun 24, 2024, at 11:00 W. Europe Standard Time.공시 • May 16Medigene AG Presents Preclinical Data on Optimal Affinity TCRs Targeting the Neoantigen Mutant KRASMedigene AG presents the company's proprietary T cell receptor (TCR) discovery process to obtain optimal Affinity 3S (sensitive, specific and safe) TCRs at the 21thAss Association for Cancer Immunotherapy (CIMT) Annual Meeting in Mainz from May 15 - 17, 2024. Data presented also shows the clear benefit of adding the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) to further armor and enhance these 3S TCR-T cells, which enables them to overcome the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. The poster with the title "Selection of superior KRAS G12V mutation-specific T cell receptors with unique characteristics for 3rd generation armored and enhanced T cell therapy" will be available on May 15, 2024, following the presentation on Medigene's website: <URL> The presented data highlighted the specificity and sensitivity of TCR-T cells co-expressing the PD1-41BB CSP alongside one of three distinct 3S TCRs targeting the mKRAS G12V neoantigen. These TCR-T cells displayed markedly increased secretion of interferon gamma (IFNg) observed upon TCR-T cell stimulation with mKRAS G12V-positive tumor cells, contrasting with the absence of IFN g secretion upon stimulation with any tumor or healthy cell expressing naturally occurring wild-type KRAS protein. All three 3S TCRs also demonstrated high sensitivity to the mKRAS G 12V neoantigen, as demonstrated by their activation in response to extremely low levels of mKRAS-G12V peptide. Conc Concurrent expression of the PD1-41 BB CSP significantly augmented TCR-T cell functionality, enabling sustained cytotoxicity targeting 3D tumor spheroids across multiple rounds of tumor exposure. This underscores the potent anti-cancer efficacy of the TCR-T cells. From a safety perspective, all three 3S TCRs combined with the PD1-41BBCSP demonstrated favorable safety profiles, with no IFNg secretion or cytotoxicity when exposed to healthy cells from major tissues or organs, confirming their selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue from toxicity.공시 • May 15Medigene Ag Maintains Earnings Guidance for 2024Medigene AG maintained earnings guidance for 2024. For the year, company expects revenue to be between EUR 9 Million and 11 Million (unchanged) in 2024.공시 • May 03+ 1 more updateMedigene Presents Superior TCR-T Cell Functionality by Inclusion of A Costimulatory Switch ProteinMedigene AG presented superior T cell receptor engineered T (TCR-T) cell functionality upon combination of optimal affinity 3S (sensitive, specific and safe) TCRs with the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) at the 7th International Neoantigen Summit held in Amsterdam, Netherlands from April 29 - May 1, 2024. Overcoming the immunosuppressive solid tumor microenvironment (TME) stands as a major hurdle for durable TCR-T therapies in patients. The PD-1/PD-L1 axis suppresses T cell activation, proliferation, survival, cytokine secretion and cytotoxicity in a TME with tumor cells that express PD-L1. The Company´s PD1-41BB CSP effectively counters this tumor self-defense mechanism against T cell attack by replacing the inhibitory signaling domain of PD-1 expressed by TCR-T cells with the activating signaling domain of 4-1BB, thereby improving TCR-T cell functionality. The data presented displayed the exceptional specificity and sensitivity of TCR-T cells co-expressing the PD1-41BB CSP with three different 3S-TCRs that recognize the mKRAS (mutant Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue) G12V neoantigen. This was seen by elevated interferon gamma (IFN?) secretion, which was solely observed following TCR-T cell stimulation with mKRAS G12V-positive tumor cells but not by stimulation with any tumor or healthy cell type expressing naturally occurring wild-type KRAS protein. Each of the three 3S TCRs displayed exceptionally high sensitivity for the mKRAS G12V neoantigen, as evidenced by their response to activation by exceedingly low levels of mKRAS-G12V peptide. Coexpression of the PD1-41BB CSP strongly enhanced TCR-T cell functionality and allowed sustained cytotoxicity to be directed against 3D tumor spheroids through multiple rounds of tumor exposure, underscoring the potent anti-cancer activity of the TCR-T cells. Finally, all three 3S TCRs exhibited excellent safety profiles. TCR-T cells expressing each of the 3S TCRs, in combination with the PD1-41BB CSP, were not activated to secrete IFN? nor to mediate killing upon exposure to healthy cells from major tissues or organs, confirming their selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells without toxicity for healthy tissue.공시 • Apr 26Medigene AG Presents Streamlined 6-Day, High Stemness Tcr-T Therapy Production ProcessMedigene AG presented a comprehensive overview of its lead candidate MDG1015, a first-in-class 3rd generation T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy, at CHI's 8th Annual Immuno-Oncology Summit Europe from April 23-25, 2024, in London. MDG1015, which is advancing towards the clinic, targets NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1 /L Antigen Family Member-1a) and is armored and enhanced by the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein The presentation with the title “MDG1015: a 3rd Generation TCR-T Therapy Incorporating the PD1-41BB Costimulatory Switch Protein, Advancing to the Clinic” is available on Medigene’s website: https://medigene.com/science/abstracts/Targeting tumors expressing cancer-testis antigens (CTAs) shows promising clinical benefits. However, improving efficacy, safety, and ensuring a sustained response are areas needing improvement. Medigene tackles these challenges with a comprehensive approach, which starts with the development of a potential best-in-class, 3S (sensitive, specific, and safe) TCR. Next, the 3S TCR is enhanced with the Company’s exclusive PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) on the engineered TCR-T cells. Finally, Medigene generates a meticulously customized drug product (DP) composition. Medigene has developed a streamlined 6-day manufacturing process that focuses on the enrichment of CD8+ T cells whilst simultaneously maintaining a high degree of stemness. This allows for creating highly effective DPs, as the field has shown that more stem-like DPs exhibit greater potency and durability of response. The inclusion of the PD1-41BB CSP eliminates the need for CD4+ T cells within the DP, as CD8+ T cells are empowered to autonomously produce supporting cytokines. By doing so, the potential risks posed by CD4+ T cells can be circumvented and therefore potentially enhance both clinical safety and therapeutic efficacy. Multiple in vitro studies for MDG1015 have clearly demonstrated enhanced anti-tumor immune responses for MDG1015 in comparison to TCRs without the CSP. This enhancement is evidenced by increased TCR-T cell proliferation and marked augmentation of Interferon ? (IFN?) release, serving as a reliable indicator of superior TCR-T cell functionality. Furthermore, MDG1015 showed elevated polyfunctionality and clear durability of effect, with rapid and sustained tumor cell eradication upon multiple serial rechallenges of CTA /PD-L1 positive cells. IND/CTA approval for MDG1015 is expected in the second half of 2024. Clinical indications for MDG1015 were primarily chosen based on the high unmet medical need, expression of the target antigen and/or PD-L1. This led to the selection of gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma, and synovial sarcoma as the initial focus areas for clinical evaluation. First patient enrolment will follow by the end of 2024, subject to financing. Based on this, the Company expects to present early data from the dose escalation phase in the fourth quarter of 2025.공시 • Apr 10Medigene AG Presents Favorable Safety Profile of TCR-T Cells with Costimulatory Switch Protein at AACR Annual Meeting 2024Medigene AG presents superior recombinant T cell receptor (rTCR) engineered T cell functionality as well as a favorable safety profile when rTCR-T cells are armored and enhanced with the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2024 taking place April 5-10, 2024, in San Diego, USA. The data presented in the poster demonstrated that the CSP-mediated costimulatory signal is TCR-gated, such that costimulation only takes place when a specific peptide-human leukocyte antigen (pHLA) complex is present on a tumor cell and triggers a signal through the rTCR expressed by the TCR-T cells. Enhanced, gated T cell functionality of CSP-armored rTCR-T cells increased secretion of interferon-? (IFN?) only when tumor cells simultaneously expressed the pHLA target antigen and PD-L1. In addition, CSP-armored rTCR-T cells showed high sensitivity in recognition of diverse tumor cell lines of different tissue origin, such as melanoma, sarcoma, and gastric cancer which varied in levels of pHLA and PD-L1 in vitro. Rapid and sustained killing of 3D tumor cell-derived spheroids only occurred when PD-L1-positive tumor cells simultaneously expressed the specific pHLA target antigen. Importantly, no recognition of healthy cells occurred if they lacked the pHLA target antigen, irrespective of PD-L1 expression, underpinning the safety of combining the CSP with a rTCR to generate rTCR-T cells that displayed no signs of toxicity for diverse healthy tissues in vitro.공시 • Apr 05Medigene AG Secures European Patent for Its iM-TCR TechnologyMedigene AG announced that the Company has been issued a patent by the European Patent Office protecting its inducible Medigene T cell receptor (iM-TCR) technology, which contains a control mechanism to regulate efficacy and improve safety of its T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapies. TCR-T therapies have demonstrated that they can effectively kill tumor cells. However, excessive activation of T cells may lead to premature exhaustion or cell death, as well as unwanted overactivity and the potential development of inflammatory responses in the body. The iM-TCR technology modifies the TCR to achieve control of TCR surface expression, allowing for fine-tuning of activity against tumor cells and thereby reducing potential inflammatory responses in the body. This property is of potential benefit not only to current autologous TCR-T therapy assets, but potentially also applicable to other TCR-T based modalities. Additionally, the iM-TCR technology can potentially expand the range of targets and indications of vital or more sensitive tissue origin and provide additional safety when expanding to other disease areas beyond oncology. The T cell receptor (TCR) assembly is a complex process. In humans, TCRs consist of an alpha (a) chain and a beta (ß) chain and each chain possesses a constant and a variable part. Medigene´s proprietary iM-TCR technology prevents the normal pairing of the a and the ß chains by introduction of specific engineered sequences into the constant part of each TCR chain. Each engineered chain is linked to an estrogen receptor sequence, which only allows the two iM-TCR chains to pair (dimerize) in the presence of Tamoxifen, and be expressed and function at the surface of TCR-T cells in a normal manner. Consequentially, to enable the iM-TCR-T cells to function in tumor cell recognition and killing, Tamoxifen administration is required but the levels required for dimerization and TCR-T function are orders of magnitude lower than the commonly used therapeutic doses. Any TCR from Medigene’s broad library of 3S TCRs can be equipped with the proprietary iM-TCR technology, which enables the function of tumor-specific TCR-T cell therapies to be finely tuned for safety and efficacy according to clinical needs.공시 • Mar 28Medigene Ag Provides Earnings Guidance for 2024Medigene AG provided earnings guidance for 2024.

Within the solid tumor microenvironment (TME) T cell functionality is strongly impaired by the expression of the programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) on tumor cells. The engagement of PD-L1 on tumor cells with PD-1 on T cells prevents specific killing of tumor cells. Moreover, PD-L1 signalling to T cells via the PD-1 receptor limits proliferation, cytokine secretion and cytotoxic response, while exhaustion is induced by repetitive TCR signalling in the absence of T cell costimulation. The presented data showed that by combining optimal affinity TCRs with a PD1-41BB CSP, not only is the PD-1/PD-L1 axis blocked, but also T cell proliferation, cytokine secretion and cytotoxic response are increased through positive 4-1BB signaling, resulting in mitigation of the immunosuppressive TME through enhanced T cell functionality. Robust expression of rTCR directed against NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a and/or the neoantigen mKRAS G12V as well as the PD1-41BB CSP was demonstrated in TCR-T cells. The combination of NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a or mKRAS G12V-specific rTCRs with PD1-41BB CSP displayed elevated polyfunctionality by increased levels of effector, stimulatory and chemoattractive cytokines as compared to TCR-T cells without PD1-41BB CSP in melanoma and pancreatic tumor cell lines. Interferon-gamma (IFN?) release measured in several tumor cell lines of different origin was enhanced in TCR-T cells co-expressing the rTCR and PD1-41BB CSP as compared to TCR-T cells lacking PD1-41BB CSP. The co-stimulatory effects of PD1-41BB were highly dependent on the rTCR-mediated recognition of the specific tumor-antigen NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a or mKRAS G12V, respectively, and on the expression of the inhibitory ligand PD-L1 on tumor cells. Elevated and sustained killing of 3D tumor spheroids was observed with TCR-T cells co-expressing the rTCR targeting mKRAS G12V and PD1-41BB CSP compared to TCR-T cells without the PD1-41BB CSP.

공시 • Dec 09Medigene AG Announces KRAS G12V as First Target for TCR-guided T Cell EngagersMedigene AG announced the selection of Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue (KRAS) G12V, in the context of HLA*A11, as the initial target for the co-development of T cell receptor-guided T cell engagers (TCR-TCEs) with WuXi Biologics. The selection of this first target is a key step for the partnership between Medigene and WuXi Biologics, which aims to advance multiple TCR-TCEs over the next three years. The collaboration seeks to harness Medigene’s expertise in the generation and characterization of highly sensitive, specific and safe (3S) TCRs with WuXi Biologics’ unique anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb), its TCE platform and proprietary bispecific antibody platform WuXiBody™. KRAS mutations are widely recognized as the most common oncogene mutations and play a significant role in indications that affect a large number of patients, such as pancreatic, small bowel, colorectal, and lung cancers. In pancreatic cancer, KRAS mutations are among the earliest and most critical genetic alterations, present in over 95% of cases; here, G12D and G12V are the most frequent (~65%). In 2020, pancreatic cancer was the seventh leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally for both men and women, with nearly as many newly diagnosed patients (496,000) as deaths (466,000) from this single indication. The bispecific therapies market offers a significant opportunity in the fight against cancer, addressing the unmet need in both solid and hematologic tumors. Over 5 million cancer patients worldwide face low five-year survival rates, highlighting the urgent demand for innovative treatments. Bispecific TCR-TCEs, which harness the immune system to target cancer cells more precisely, are projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 40.9% from 2023 to 2030.

공시 • Sep 16Medigene AG Presents Progress on KRAS Library and UniTope & TraCR Technology at ESMO 2024Medigene AG presented updates for its T cell receptor (TCR) library targeting the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) and also highlighted advancements of its UniTope and TraCR technology, which serves as a universal system for tagging and tracking recombinant TCRs (rTCRs) across multiple modalities, including T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapies, at the ESMO Congress 2024 taking place in Barcelona from September 13-17, 2024. The first data presented showcased recent advancements in the expansion of the Company's KRAS library, using a high-throughput approach to develop optimal affinity TCRs targeting the mKRAS G12D neoantigen in the context of HLA-A11 via Medigene’s proprietary E2E Platform. Further in vitro studies characterized the lead TCR candidate in terms of specificity, sensitivity, and safety (3S) while incorporating the PD1-41BB CSP. TCR-expressing T cells, when stimulated by mKRAS G12D-positive tumor cells, showed increased interferon gamma (IFN?) release. Reduced cancer cell survival was observed when mKRAS G12D-positive tumor cell lines from various origins were exposed to T cells co-expressing the rTCR mKRAS G12D-HLA-A11 and PD1-41BB CSP. These effects were specific to mKRAS G12D, with no impact on wild-type KRAS cells. The TCR demonstrated an excellent safety profile, with no off-target toxicity against an extensive panel of healthy cell types. Finally, in vitro data showed that co-expression of PD1-41BB CSP enhanced and sustained T cell function in an rTCR-specific manner, with gated activation that only occurred when the specific peptide-HLA complex was present on target cells, and not through PD-L1 expression alone. The second poster displayed the Company´s recently introduced universal TCR tagging and tracking combination technology UniTope & TraCR. Bioinformatic alignment of T cell receptor beta variable sequences enabled a six-amino-acid peptide (UniTope) to be predicted that is not found in natural TCR beta chains and has low immunogenicity. In parallel, an antibody was developed to specifically target this short aminbo acid peptide (TraCR) and further in vitro experiments demonstrated that TCR-T cells containing the UniTope sequence exhibited similar effects to those of TCR-T cells without the UniTope sequence. Integration of the UniTope sequence in a rTCR guarantees 100% co-expression of the tag and provides a significant advancement over current methods of detection of rTCRs in TCR-guided therapeutics. In vitro studies confirmed that insertion of UniTope did not alter expression or functionality of rTCRs. In addition, safety assessments confirmed that UniTope-modified rTCRs displayed the same high safety profile as un-modified rTCRs with respect to lack of recognition and killing of 16 healthy cell types.

공시 • Jun 27Medigene Presents Efficient 6-Day TCR-T Therapy Production Process with High StemnessMedigene AG provided a detailed overview of its lead candidate MDG1015, a first-in-class 3rd generation T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy, at the 7th Cell and Gene Therapy In-Depth Focus Summit from June 27-28, 2024, in Beijing, China. MDG1015 advances towards the clinic and targets the cancer-testisantigens (CTA) NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1 /L Antigen Family Member-1a) and is armored and enhanced by the Company’s PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP). Targeting tumors expressing CTAs has shown promising clinical benefits, yet there remains a need to enhance efficacy, safety, and response durability not only in orphan indications but also in more common solid tumor types. Tackle these issues with a comprehensive strategy, starting with the development of a best-in-class TCR that is sensitive, specific, and safe (3S TCR). Further, innovative approach not only armors and enhances the TCR-T cell functionality by combining 3S TCRs with the PD1-41BB CSP but also places a significant emphasis on the drug product (DP) manufacturing process. This process is vital for producing effective, safe, and durable TCR-T therapies. A benefit of adding the PD1-41BB CSP to the Company´s 3S TCRs has been shown in multiple in vitro assays displaying elevated TCR-T cell proliferation, superior TCR-T cell functionality as well as quick and consistent elimination of tumor cells when compared to TCR-T cells lacking the CSP. It has been demonstrated this effect is “”gated” in that the enhancement occurs only after the 3S TCR binds to its specific target antigen. This is an important safety feature of Medigene’s 3rd generation TCR-T programs. In addition, Medigene devised an efficient 6-day manufacturing process that emphasizes enriching CD8+ T cells while preserving their stem-like properties. Research studies indicates that DPs with more stem-like characteristics demonstrate increased effectiveness and longer-lasting responses. By incorporating the PD1-41BB CSP, the necessity for CD4+ T cells within the DP is eliminated, allowing CD8+ T cells to independently produce the necessary cytokines that would have been provided by the CD4+ cells. This approach mitigates potential risks associated with CD4+ T cells, potentially enhancing both the safety and therapeutic benefits of the treatment. Medigene's lead TCR-T program, MDG1015, is scheduled for IND submission in the third quarter of 2024 and CTA submission in the fourth quarter of 2024. MDG1015's clinical indications were selected due to significant unmet medical needs, the presence of the target antigen, and/or PD-L1 expression. This decision resulted in the initial focus on evaluating gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma, and synovial sarcoma. Subject to additional financing, the first patient enrollment is anticipated by the end of 2024. Based on this timeline, the Company aims to unveil early data from the dose escalation phase in the fourth quarter of 2025. MDG1015 is a first-in-class, 3rd generation T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy targeting NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a, a well-recognized and validated cancer testis antigen, which is expressed in multiple tumor types. MDG1015 contains our optimal affinity 3S (sensitive, specific and safe) NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a TCR combined with our proprietary PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein that blocks the PD1/PD-L1 inhibitory axis while simultaneously activating the T cell through the well described -41BB pathway further enhancing the activity and persistence of the TCR-T cell in the hostile tumor microenvironment (TME). MDG1015 is currently undergoing IND/CTA enabling studies with IND approval expected in Third Quarter 2024 and CTA approval in Fourth Quarter 2024.

Data presented also shows the clear benefit of adding the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) to further armor and enhance these 3S TCR-T cells, which enables them to overcome the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. The poster with the title "Selection of superior KRAS G12V mutation-specific T cell receptors with unique characteristics for 3rd generation armored and enhanced T cell therapy" will be available on May 15, 2024, following the presentation on Medigene's website: <URL> The presented data highlighted the specificity and sensitivity of TCR-T cells co-expressing the PD1-41BB CSP alongside one of three distinct 3S TCRs targeting the mKRAS G12V neoantigen. These TCR-T cells displayed markedly increased secretion of interferon gamma (IFNg) observed upon TCR-T cell stimulation with mKRAS G12V-positive tumor cells, contrasting with the absence of IFN g secretion upon stimulation with any tumor or healthy cell expressing naturally occurring wild-type KRAS protein. All three 3S TCRs also demonstrated high sensitivity to the mKRAS G 12V neoantigen, as demonstrated by their activation in response to extremely low levels of mKRAS-G12V peptide. Conc Concurrent expression of the PD1-41 BB CSP significantly augmented TCR-T cell functionality, enabling sustained cytotoxicity targeting 3D tumor spheroids across multiple rounds of tumor exposure. This underscores the potent anti-cancer efficacy of the TCR-T cells. From a safety perspective, all three 3S TCRs combined with the PD1-41BBCSP demonstrated favorable safety profiles, with no IFNg secretion or cytotoxicity when exposed to healthy cells from major tissues or organs, confirming their selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue from toxicity.

공시 • May 03+ 1 more updateMedigene Presents Superior TCR-T Cell Functionality by Inclusion of A Costimulatory Switch ProteinMedigene AG presented superior T cell receptor engineered T (TCR-T) cell functionality upon combination of optimal affinity 3S (sensitive, specific and safe) TCRs with the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) at the 7th International Neoantigen Summit held in Amsterdam, Netherlands from April 29 - May 1, 2024. Overcoming the immunosuppressive solid tumor microenvironment (TME) stands as a major hurdle for durable TCR-T therapies in patients. The PD-1/PD-L1 axis suppresses T cell activation, proliferation, survival, cytokine secretion and cytotoxicity in a TME with tumor cells that express PD-L1. The Company´s PD1-41BB CSP effectively counters this tumor self-defense mechanism against T cell attack by replacing the inhibitory signaling domain of PD-1 expressed by TCR-T cells with the activating signaling domain of 4-1BB, thereby improving TCR-T cell functionality. The data presented displayed the exceptional specificity and sensitivity of TCR-T cells co-expressing the PD1-41BB CSP with three different 3S-TCRs that recognize the mKRAS (mutant Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue) G12V neoantigen. This was seen by elevated interferon gamma (IFN?) secretion, which was solely observed following TCR-T cell stimulation with mKRAS G12V-positive tumor cells but not by stimulation with any tumor or healthy cell type expressing naturally occurring wild-type KRAS protein. Each of the three 3S TCRs displayed exceptionally high sensitivity for the mKRAS G12V neoantigen, as evidenced by their response to activation by exceedingly low levels of mKRAS-G12V peptide. Coexpression of the PD1-41BB CSP strongly enhanced TCR-T cell functionality and allowed sustained cytotoxicity to be directed against 3D tumor spheroids through multiple rounds of tumor exposure, underscoring the potent anti-cancer activity of the TCR-T cells. Finally, all three 3S TCRs exhibited excellent safety profiles. TCR-T cells expressing each of the 3S TCRs, in combination with the PD1-41BB CSP, were not activated to secrete IFN? nor to mediate killing upon exposure to healthy cells from major tissues or organs, confirming their selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells without toxicity for healthy tissue.
공시 • Apr 26Medigene AG Presents Streamlined 6-Day, High Stemness Tcr-T Therapy Production ProcessMedigene AG presented a comprehensive overview of its lead candidate MDG1015, a first-in-class 3rd generation T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy, at CHI's 8th Annual Immuno-Oncology Summit Europe from April 23-25, 2024, in London. MDG1015, which is advancing towards the clinic, targets NY-ESO-1 /LAGE-1a (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1 /L Antigen Family Member-1a) and is armored and enhanced by the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein The presentation with the title “MDG1015: a 3rd Generation TCR-T Therapy Incorporating the PD1-41BB Costimulatory Switch Protein, Advancing to the Clinic” is available on Medigene’s website: https://medigene.com/science/abstracts/Targeting tumors expressing cancer-testis antigens (CTAs) shows promising clinical benefits. However, improving efficacy, safety, and ensuring a sustained response are areas needing improvement. Medigene tackles these challenges with a comprehensive approach, which starts with the development of a potential best-in-class, 3S (sensitive, specific, and safe) TCR. Next, the 3S TCR is enhanced with the Company’s exclusive PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) on the engineered TCR-T cells. Finally, Medigene generates a meticulously customized drug product (DP) composition. Medigene has developed a streamlined 6-day manufacturing process that focuses on the enrichment of CD8+ T cells whilst simultaneously maintaining a high degree of stemness. This allows for creating highly effective DPs, as the field has shown that more stem-like DPs exhibit greater potency and durability of response. The inclusion of the PD1-41BB CSP eliminates the need for CD4+ T cells within the DP, as CD8+ T cells are empowered to autonomously produce supporting cytokines. By doing so, the potential risks posed by CD4+ T cells can be circumvented and therefore potentially enhance both clinical safety and therapeutic efficacy. Multiple in vitro studies for MDG1015 have clearly demonstrated enhanced anti-tumor immune responses for MDG1015 in comparison to TCRs without the CSP. This enhancement is evidenced by increased TCR-T cell proliferation and marked augmentation of Interferon ? (IFN?) release, serving as a reliable indicator of superior TCR-T cell functionality. Furthermore, MDG1015 showed elevated polyfunctionality and clear durability of effect, with rapid and sustained tumor cell eradication upon multiple serial rechallenges of CTA /PD-L1 positive cells. IND/CTA approval for MDG1015 is expected in the second half of 2024. Clinical indications for MDG1015 were primarily chosen based on the high unmet medical need, expression of the target antigen and/or PD-L1. This led to the selection of gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma, and synovial sarcoma as the initial focus areas for clinical evaluation. First patient enrolment will follow by the end of 2024, subject to financing. Based on this, the Company expects to present early data from the dose escalation phase in the fourth quarter of 2025.
공시 • Apr 10Medigene AG Presents Favorable Safety Profile of TCR-T Cells with Costimulatory Switch Protein at AACR Annual Meeting 2024Medigene AG presents superior recombinant T cell receptor (rTCR) engineered T cell functionality as well as a favorable safety profile when rTCR-T cells are armored and enhanced with the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2024 taking place April 5-10, 2024, in San Diego, USA. The data presented in the poster demonstrated that the CSP-mediated costimulatory signal is TCR-gated, such that costimulation only takes place when a specific peptide-human leukocyte antigen (pHLA) complex is present on a tumor cell and triggers a signal through the rTCR expressed by the TCR-T cells. Enhanced, gated T cell functionality of CSP-armored rTCR-T cells increased secretion of interferon-? (IFN?) only when tumor cells simultaneously expressed the pHLA target antigen and PD-L1. In addition, CSP-armored rTCR-T cells showed high sensitivity in recognition of diverse tumor cell lines of different tissue origin, such as melanoma, sarcoma, and gastric cancer which varied in levels of pHLA and PD-L1 in vitro. Rapid and sustained killing of 3D tumor cell-derived spheroids only occurred when PD-L1-positive tumor cells simultaneously expressed the specific pHLA target antigen. Importantly, no recognition of healthy cells occurred if they lacked the pHLA target antigen, irrespective of PD-L1 expression, underpinning the safety of combining the CSP with a rTCR to generate rTCR-T cells that displayed no signs of toxicity for diverse healthy tissues in vitro.
공시 • Apr 05Medigene AG Secures European Patent for Its iM-TCR TechnologyMedigene AG announced that the Company has been issued a patent by the European Patent Office protecting its inducible Medigene T cell receptor (iM-TCR) technology, which contains a control mechanism to regulate efficacy and improve safety of its T cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapies. TCR-T therapies have demonstrated that they can effectively kill tumor cells. However, excessive activation of T cells may lead to premature exhaustion or cell death, as well as unwanted overactivity and the potential development of inflammatory responses in the body. The iM-TCR technology modifies the TCR to achieve control of TCR surface expression, allowing for fine-tuning of activity against tumor cells and thereby reducing potential inflammatory responses in the body. This property is of potential benefit not only to current autologous TCR-T therapy assets, but potentially also applicable to other TCR-T based modalities. Additionally, the iM-TCR technology can potentially expand the range of targets and indications of vital or more sensitive tissue origin and provide additional safety when expanding to other disease areas beyond oncology. The T cell receptor (TCR) assembly is a complex process. In humans, TCRs consist of an alpha (a) chain and a beta (ß) chain and each chain possesses a constant and a variable part. Medigene´s proprietary iM-TCR technology prevents the normal pairing of the a and the ß chains by introduction of specific engineered sequences into the constant part of each TCR chain. Each engineered chain is linked to an estrogen receptor sequence, which only allows the two iM-TCR chains to pair (dimerize) in the presence of Tamoxifen, and be expressed and function at the surface of TCR-T cells in a normal manner. Consequentially, to enable the iM-TCR-T cells to function in tumor cell recognition and killing, Tamoxifen administration is required but the levels required for dimerization and TCR-T function are orders of magnitude lower than the commonly used therapeutic doses. Any TCR from Medigene’s broad library of 3S TCRs can be equipped with the proprietary iM-TCR technology, which enables the function of tumor-specific TCR-T cell therapies to be finely tuned for safety and efficacy according to clinical needs.

공시 • Oct 24Medigene AG Presents First Pre-Clinical Data of Optimal Affinity TCR Targeting mKRAS G12V Combined with a PD1-41BB Costimulatory Switch Protein ShowingMedigene AG presented data showing significantly enhanced T cell activity when combining the PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) with recombinant T cell receptors (rTCR) not only when directed at the cancer-testis antigen (CTA) New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma-1 (NY-ESO-1)/L Antigen Family Member-1a (LAGE-1a), but also, presented here for the first time, against the neoantigen mutant Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (mKRAS) G12V at the ESMO Congress 2023 held October 20-24, 2023, in Madrid, Spain. Within the solid tumor microenvironment (TME) T cell functionality is strongly impaired by the expression of the programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) on tumor cells. The engagement of PD-L1 on tumor cells with PD-1 on T cells prevents specific killing of tumor cells. Moreover, PD-L1 signalling to T cells via the PD-1 receptor limits proliferation, cytokine secretion and cytotoxic response, while exhaustion is induced by repetitive TCR signalling in the absence of T cell costimulation. The presented data showed that by combining optimal affinity TCRs with a PD1-41BB CSP, not only is the PD-1/PD-L1 axis blocked, but also T cell proliferation, cytokine secretion and cytotoxic response are increased through positive 4-1BB signaling, resulting in mitigation of the immunosuppressive TME through enhanced T cell functionality. Robust expression of rTCR directed against NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a and/or the neoantigen mKRAS G12V as well as the PD1-41BB CSP was demonstrated in TCR-T cells. The combination of NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a or mKRAS G12V-specific rTCRs with PD1-41BB CSP displayed elevated polyfunctionality by increased levels of effector, stimulatory and chemoattractive cytokines as compared to TCR-T cells without PD1-41BB CSP in melanoma and pancreatic tumor cell lines. Interferon-gamma (IFN?) release measured in several tumor cell lines of different origin was enhanced in TCR-T cells co-expressing the rTCR and PD1-41BB CSP as compared to TCR-T cells lacking PD1-41BB CSP. The co-stimulatory effects of PD1-41BB were highly dependent on the rTCR-mediated recognition of the specific tumor-antigen NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a or mKRAS G12V, respectively, and on the expression of the inhibitory ligand PD-L1 on tumor cells. Elevated and sustained killing of 3D tumor spheroids was observed with TCR-T cells co-expressing the rTCR targeting mKRAS G12V and PD1-41BB CSP compared to TCR-T cells without the PD1-41BB CSP. Additional data on Medigene’s library of KRAS mutation-specific TCRs will be presented at the Society of Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 38th Annual Meeting held in San Diego, November 1 to 5, 2023.
공시 • Oct 17Medigene to Present New Pre-Clinical Data for Pipeline TCR-T Therapies At the ESMO Congress 2023Medigene AG will be presenting at the ESMO Congress 2023 being held on October 20-24, 2023, in Madrid, Spain. The data to be presented shows that optimal affinity T cell receptors (TCRs) when combined with Medigene’s PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP), provides strong protection of T cell receptor engineered T cells (TCR-T) against multiple mechanisms of solid tumor microenvironment immunosuppression, including CSP-enhanced poly-cytokine secretion, proliferation and mitigation against exhaustion of the TCR-T in vitro.
