Evaxion A/S Demonstrates Scalability of Ai-Immunology Platform in Glioblastoma Evaxion A/S announced new data demonstrating the platform’s ability to also potentially develop vaccines for glioblastoma (brain cancer). The data, which will be presented at the AACR Annual Meeting in San Diego, California, on April 22, 2026, is another confirmation of how AI-Immunology™ can be applied across a range of different cancers as well as other diseases. Evaxion has collaborated with researchers at Duke University School of Medicine to identify endogenous retrovirus (ERV)-derived antigens in tumor samples from multiple glioblastoma patients to include in vaccines to treat the deadly brain cancer, for which limited therapeutic options exist. ERVs are tumor antigens from the dark genome. These antigens are present in tumors but absent in normal tissue, making them highly attractive targets for cancer vaccines. AI-Immunology™ has unique capabilities in identifying ERVs and this opens a whole new source of antigens, which can potentially greatly improve the efficacy of cancer vaccines for glioblastoma patients, who generally have few neoantigens to target due to low mutational burden. In addition to the ERV-derived antigens, the company also identified neoantigens of sufficient quality to include in a vaccine in the majority of patients. The new findings include bioinformatic analysis profiling ERV expression in patient tumor samples and vaccine design feasibility assessment as well as experimental data demonstrating immunologic responses of the discovered ERV antigens. They show that ERVs constitute a relevant antigen source that may overcome limitations imposed by low mutational burden, providing a strong Proof-of-Concept for personalized vaccines incorporating ERV-derived antigens.

Evaxion A/S Announces Last Patient Visit in One-Year Extension of Phase 2 Trial with Personalized Cancer Vaccine Evx-01 Evaxion A/S had successfully completed the one-year extension of its phase 2 trial with personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01 with the last patient having now had last physician visit. Patients in the trial will continue to be monitored and data prepared for expected presentation in the second half of 2026. Designed with AI-Immunology™, EVX-01 is a personalized cancer vaccine currently being evaluated as a treatment for advanced melanoma (skin cancer). In the first two years of the phase 2 trial, patients were treated with EVX-01 in combination with MSD’s (Merck & Co. Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA) anti-PD-1 therapy, Keytruda® (pembrolizumab). In the third year, patients received EVX-01 as monotherapy, allowing an evaluation of the vaccine’s effect both as stand-alone and combination treatment. Further, the three-year data may provide additional insights into potential enhanced treatment effects and durability of induced immune response. Data from the first two years of the trial demonstrated an Objective Response Rate of 75%, as 12 out of 16 patients had objective clinical responses, with four patients obtaining a complete response. Additionally, a durable clinical benefit was observed as 92% of patients were still responding at two years follow-up and no relapses were observed. 54% of patients had a deepened response during treatment, improving from stable disease or partial response to partial or complete response. Tumor reduction (target lesions) was observed in 15 out of the 16 patients enrolled in the trial. In the trial, EVX-01 induced an immune response in all patients, with 81% of the targeted neoantigens generating potent specific T-cell responses. This high immunogenicity rate stands out as highly encouraging compared to historical observations and compares very favorably to what is seen with other approaches. These results also underline and validate the precision of the AI-Immunology™ platform in accurately identifying neoantigens, which leads to detectable signals in patients. Data also confirmed EVX-01 to be a well-tolerated treatment. Aankondiging • Mar 30
Evaxion A S Presents Novel AI Based Polio Vaccine Design Concepts and Evx V1 Cmv Vaccine Program Evaxion A/S has in collaboration with the Gates Foundation developed novel and potentially superior concepts for design of vaccines to combat polio. These concepts, and the underlying research, will be presented at the World Vaccine Congress taking place in Washington D.C. from March 31 to April 2, 2026. Current polio vaccines are based on inactivated or attenuated versions of the virus. While these vaccines are effective, they each have shortcomings in certain settings. Thus, it has been a long-standing - but so far unreachable - goal to create a novel polio vaccine that combines the strongest aspects of the existing vaccines. To achieve this, Evaxion has deployed AI-Immunology to develop novel vaccine design concepts for a next-generation polio vaccine, which may enhance the chances of completing and sustaining polio eradication once and for all. Evaxion will also present data from its EVX-V1 program at the World Vaccine Congress. EVX-V1 targets Cytomegalovirus (CMV). AI-Immunology has discovered novel CMV antigens and EVX-V1 is a next-generation, multi-component vaccine program combining these novel AI-discovered antigens with AI-optimized versions of established CMV vaccine antigens. This broader multi-targeted strategy is expected to strengthen the protective potential of the future vaccine. Aankondiging • Mar 20

Evaxion Update on Nasdaq Notification Regarding Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement As communicated earlier, on May 7, 2024, Evaxion Biotech A/S received a deficiency letter from Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) for failure to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million, following which we presented a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance. Nasdaq provided us until November 4, 2024, to evidence compliance based upon the plan submitted. We remain committed to ensuring compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholder’s equity requirement and maintain our Nasdaq listing. This is to be pursued through increasing shareholder’s equity via a combination of business development income and capital markets activities. However, current equity market environment, the geopolitical uncertainties and timing of business development activities have to date impacted timing for the full required increase in shareholder’s equity. We do not expect to have regained compliance by November 4, 2024, and therefore expect Nasdaq to send us a delisting notification after such date. We then plan to appeal the delisting determination and request a hearing on the matter, following which a new 180-day extension could be granted based on our plan to regain compliance. We are in constructive dialogue with Nasdaq around this process, though we will not receive any guarantee that another 180-day extension will be granted before the anticipated hearing.

Evaxion Biotech A/S Announces Strong Validation of Ai-Immunology Platform in Multiple Clinical Trials Evaxion Biotech A/S has now evidence from three different clinical trials validating the vaccine target predictions of its AI platform. Evaxion has developed three personalized cancer vaccine candidates with the use of its AI-Immunology platform. Two of these EVX-01 and EVX-02 have completed clinical phase 1 testing and EVX-01 is currently in phase 2, while the third EVX-03 is an IND-ready vaccine candidate. The AI-Immunology platform identifies cancer vaccine targets, so called neoantigens, and assigns a prediction score reflecting the likelihood of each vaccine target to elicit a specific immune response against the tumor. In all three clinical trials, a statistically significant correlation was observed between the AI-Immunology prediction scores and the immunological responses measured in the patients, with the most robust responses being generated by vaccine targets with the highest AI-Immunology prediction scores. Further, in the one trial where it was assessed, a statistically significant correlation was demonstrated between AI-Immunology™ prediction scores and Progression Free Survival in patients, underscoring the platform's ability to identify vaccine targets with meaningful clinical impact.

Evaxion Biotech A/S Reports Convincing One-Year Data from Phase 2 Trial on AI-Designed Personalized Cancer Vaccine EVX-01 Evaxion Biotech A/S announced positive one-year data from the ongoing phase 2 trial with its lead asset EVX-01, an AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine. The data stems from a one-year interim analysis of the ongoing phase 2 trial investigating EVX-01 in combination with MSD’s (Merck & Co. Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA) anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced melanoma (skin cancer). The data was presented during the weekend at a poster session at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2024 in Barcelona, Spain. Unique profile of EVX-01 supported by both clinical efficacy and immune data. The data demonstrates 69% ORR, reduction in tumor target lesions in 15 out of 16 patients, an immunogenicity rate of 79%, and a positive correlation between Evaxion’s AI-Immunology platform predictions and immune responses induced by the individual neoantigens in the EVX-01 vaccine (p=0.00013). Neoantigens are newly formed antigens generated from cancer-specific mutations. As a neoantigen vaccine, EVX-01 aims at triggering the patient’s immune system to target these specific antigens and thereby eradicate the cancer cells. The 69% ORR is calculated based on 11 out of 16 patients in the trial having objective clinical responses. This rate may increase as more data are collected but will not decrease. Final results are expected in the third quarter of 2025. Further to the encouraging clinical data, the immunogenicity data from the trial are also impressive, demonstrating that 79% of EVX-01’s neoantigens triggered a targeted immune response. This immunogenicity rate stands out as unprecedented compared to historical observations and compares very favorably to what is seen with other approaches. It also underlines and validates the precision of the AI-Immunology platform in identifying neoantigens which leads to detectable signals in patients. The new data also confirms the strong predictive capabilities of AI-Immunology™ with a positive correlation between its predictions and the neoantigen immune response detected in the patients with a p-value of p=0.00013. In other words, the data confirms that the neoantigens identified by the platform as the most relevant vaccine targets are also the ones that trigger specific immune responses in patients.

Evaxion and Undisclosed Collaborator Announce Encouraging Results for Evx-B1 Vaccine Antigens Against Staphylococcus Aureus Infection Evaxion Biotech A/S announce the successful conclusion of a series of large non-rodent animal infection studies, testing antigens from Evaxion’s preclinical EVX-B1 vaccine candidate against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In the animal studies, the EVX-B1 antigens significantly reduced disease burden. Currently, the two companies are engaged in discussions regarding the path forward. There is no S. aureus vaccine available for human use. This pathogen can cause infections of multiple organs and tissues, which can be profoundly severe or even fatal. Most at risk are individuals with chronic conditions and patients undergoing surgeries. Also, the presence of antibiotic-resistant S. aureus is limiting available treatment options. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported 120,000 bloodstream infections associated with S. aureus in the US annually. Three separate studies in large, non-rodent animals were conducted with the following conclusions: The EVX-B1 vaccine antigens significantly reduced S. aureus bacterial burden in a surgical site infection model; Induction of meaningful antigen-specific antibody titers in all vaccinated animals; The ability of the antigens to induce a protective immune response in the animals when being colonized with S. aureus mimicking the human situation; Ability of the immune blood to neutralize clinically relevant S. aureus in a whole blood killing assay, holding promise for translational assay readout in early clinical development.

The Phase 2b clinical trial is a single arm trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of EVX-01 in combination with KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) in adults with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. The trial will evaluate if EVX-01 improves the best overall response (BOR) in patients with an initial assessment of stable disease (SD) or partial response (PR) after initiating KEYTRUDA treatment, as compared to historical outcomes with KEYTRUDA alone in metastatic or unresectable melanoma. The Company has received approval of its Clinical Trial Applications for the Phase 2b trial from regulatory authorities in Australia, Italy and France. The Company subsequently informed the French regulators that it currently does not intend to conduct the trial in France. In addition, the Company submitted a CTA in Spain and is awaiting approval by the Spanish regulatory authorities. Aankondiging • Nov 18
Evaxion Biotech A/S Announces Promising Results from Phase 1/2a Clinical Trial of Personalized DNA Cancer Immunotherapy EVX-02 Evaxion Biotech A/S announced promising clinical data from the Phase 1/2a first-in-human study of its DNA-based cancer immunotherapy, EVX-02. In the clinical study, EVX-02 is given in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor and targets cancer mutations, neoantigens, in patients with resected melanoma. The Company reported encouraging interim safety and immunogenicity data from the Phase 1/2a study of its personalized DNA-based immunotherapy, EVX-02. The results are summarized below. Personalized cancer immunotherapy, like EVX-02, is particularly challenging to produce because a new and unique drug is manufactured for each patient. Safety: Treatment appeared to be well tolerated in all patients, with only very mild adverse events (AEs) observed in relation to EVX-02 treatment. EVX-02 induced CD4+ and CD8+ specific T-cell responses in all patients, providing proof of mechanism for our DNA-delivery technology, in that the delivered EVX-02-DNA gave rise to immune reactions to its encoded neoantigen peptides. The T-cell responses were robust and long-lasting. A full clinical trial report for the EVX-02 Phase 1 study is expected in the second quarter of 2023. Price Target Changed • Nov 17
