Oncopeptides AB Announces Publication of Phase 2 Bridge Study Results for Pepaxti in Relapsed Refractory Multiple Myeloma Patients with Renal Impairment Oncopeptides AB (publ) (Nasdaq Stockholm: ONCO), a biotech company focused on difficult-to-treat cancers, announced the publication of the results from the Phase 2 BRIDGE (OP-107) clinical study in the peer-reviewed journal Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukemia. The prospective, open-label study evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and efficacy of Pepaxti (melflufen) plus dexamethasone in relapsed, refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients with moderate-to-severe renal impairment (RI). Patients with renal insufficiency represent roughly half of all myeloma diagnoses and typically suffer from poorer long-term outcomes and limited clinical options. The final analyses demonstrate that while systemic exposure to the active metabolite melphalan varies based on baseline kidney function, a reduced melflufen starting dose of 30 mg in patients with moderate renal impairment delivers a consistent safety profile, treatment responses, and survival measures aligned with prior trials conducted in less selected populations. Furthermore, exploratory data gathered across the treatment cycles showed that renal function remained stable or slightly improved during therapy, suggesting that Pepaxti does not adversely impact the kidneys at the studied doses. Validated dose optimization: The PK data directly validate the clinical use and efficacy of a 30 mg Pepaxti starting dose for patients with moderate renal impairment (eGFR =30 to <45 mL/min/1.73 m²). Sustained efficacy in fragile populations: Patients with moderate renal impairment achieved an Overall Response Rate (ORR) of 47.6% in Cohort 1a (40 mg starting dose) and 70.0% in Cohort 1b (30 mg starting dose), with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 8.6 months and 7.7 months, respectively. No new safety signals: Despite advanced renal impairment and high treatment exposure, the safety profile was well-characterized and manageable. The most frequently reported treatment-emergent adverse events were hematological (thrombocytopenia, anemia, and neutropenia), which is consistent with previous clinical trials. The full article, titled "BRIDGE (OP-107): A Phase 2 Pharmacokinetic Study of Melflufen Plus Dexamethasone in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma and Impaired Renal Function," is available online via Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukemia. Pepaxti (melphalan flufenamide, also called melflufen) has been granted Marketing Authorization, in the European Union, the EEA-countries Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway, as well as in the UK. Pepaxti is indicated in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least three prior lines of therapies, whose disease is refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory agent, and one anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, and who have demonstrated disease progression on or after the last therapy. For patients with a prior autologous stem cell transplantation, the time to progression should be at least 3 years from transplantation. Breakeven Date Change • May 20

Oncopeptides AB (publ) Announces the Publication of Two Real-World Evidence (RWE) Abstracts on Pepaxti At the International Myeloma Society Annual Meeting Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced the publication of two real-world evidence (RWE) abstracts on Pepaxti at the International Myeloma Society (IMS) Annual Meeting, September 17-20 in Toronto, Canada. As previously communicated, the data were generated through treatment outcomes in real world settings from centers in Valencia, Spain and Bologna, Italy and underscore the growing interest in real-world clinical use of Pepaxti. The Italian study reports an overall response rate (ORR) of 47% in a heavily pretreated patient population with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, confirming the efficacy previously demonstrated in the HORIZON trial with a similar safety profile. Importantly, the study demonstrated efficacy in patients treated with novel immunotherapies, underscoring the robust effectiveness of Pepaxti in daily clinical practice. The Spanish study confirms the efficacy of Pepaxti in an even more heavily pretreated patient population where the majority of patients had been exposed to either anti-BCMA or anti-GPRC5D immunotherapy, generating data highly relevant to clinicians seeking guidance for treatment decisions. Both studies confirm Pepaxti's favorable tolerability profile in real-world settings - a key consideration in multiple myeloma where safety challenges are common. Announcement • Aug 22

Oncopeptides AB (publ) Announces the Publication of New Real-World Data That Further Support the Effectiveness and Tolerability of Melflufen, Refractory Multiple Myeloma Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced the publication of new real-world data that further support the effectiveness and tolerability of melflufen, branded in Europe as Pepaxti, in patients with relapsed, refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The data were presented in an abstract from the University of Catania, Italy. It highlights treatment outcomes in a single-center real-world setting. The retrospective analysis included eight triple-class refractory RRMM patients who had received a median of 3.5 prior lines of therapy. Notably, several patients presented with high-risk features, including extramedullary disease. Despite this, treatment with Pepaxti in combination with dexamethasone showed an overall response rate (ORR) of 37.5%, with partial responses seen even among patients with advanced disease manifestations. The data underline Pepaxti's role as a viable treatment option for patients with advanced RRMM for patients who have received at least three prior lines of therapy and whose disease has progressed on or after the last therapy.

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 German stocks, typically moving 14% 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 (14% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (127% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Negative shareholders equity The company has negative equity. Total equity: -kr8.4m This is considered a major risk. Being in negative equity means that the company's liabilities exceed its assets, meaning it owes more to creditors than it has in owned assets. While this doesn't mean the company is about to collapse, in the long-term, this is unsustainable. The company may have issues meeting financial obligations, is at risk of becoming insolvent and may have difficulty raising capital, especially more debt, if needed.

Oncopeptides AB (publ) Presents New Data Highlighting Treatment Benefits of Pepaxti in High-Risk Multiple Myeloma Patients at the COMy Congress Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced that new scientific data on melflufen, branded in Europe as Pepaxti, has been accepted at the 10th annual World Congress on Cont Cont Cont Controversies in Multiple Myeloma (COMy), to be held on May 23-26. The study, published by a team from institutions across Europe, including the University of Wurzburg and the Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland, focuses on the effectiveness of melflufen and shows promising results for the drug when treating patients with a particularly challenging form of multiple myeloma. The study will be presented to congress attendees through an online oral presentation on May 26. The presentation will be given by Caroline Heckman, from the Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland. Multiple myeloma can be especially difficult to treat in patients who have specific genetic mutations or deletions, such as del(17p) and/or mutations in the TP53 gene. These genetic characteristics are associated with a poorer prognosis and shorter survival rates. The research findings indicate that melflufen is more effective than traditional alkylating agents causing DNA damage and promoting the death of cancer cells lacking a functional so-called p53 protein, which is a common issue in high-risk multiple myeloma cases. The study also highlighted significant changes in gene expression that enhance the drug's impact on cancer cells. Furthermore, patients with the del(17p) genetic abnormality treated with melflufen and dexamethasone showed a longer progression-free survival and higher overall response rate compared to those treated with pomalidomide and dexamethasone in the OP-103 OCEAN trial.

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 133% This is considered a major 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 Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (47% average daily change).

Oncopeptides AB (Publ) Announces Positive Opinion on Type II Variation to Extend the Therapeutic Indication of Pepaxti Based on Ocean Trial Results Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), part of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), has, following their scientific assessment, adopted a positive opinion on Oncopeptides' application for earlier lines of treatment for patients with relapsed, refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The opinion from the CHMP will now be sent to the European Commission for a final decision. Based on findings from its OCEAN trial, Oncopeptides submitted, on 28 Nov. 2022, an application to extend the therapeutic indication of Pepaxti to the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior lines of therapies, whose disease is refractory to lenalidomide and the last line of therapy. With their opinion, CHMP recommends that the use of Pepaxti could be expanded to earlier lines of treatment and also peripheral administration, meaning delivery of treatment through peripheral rather than central veins, a less invasive way of administration. Oncopeptides will as a next step assess the current market dynamics of the rapidly evolving multiple myeloma landscape, including the competition in different lines of treatment and the effect that extending Pepaxti into earlier lines of treatment would have on Oncopeptides's ability to receive a reimbursed price that reflects its innovation.

Oncopeptides Provides Update on Pepaxto US Marketing Authorization Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced that theUS Food and Drug Administration, FDA, has requested a withdrawal of the US marketing authorization for Pepaxto® (melphalan flufenamide, also called melflufen). The request is based on the outcome of the confirmatory phase 3 OCEAN study, which demonstrated an ITT overall survival HR of 1.1, but with significant survival result differences for both melflufen and the comparator drug pomalidomide for large relevant patient groups. Pepaxtowas granted accelerated approval in the U.S., on February 26,2021, and is indicated in combination with dexamethasone, for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least four prior lines of therapy and whose disease is refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory agent, and one CD38-directed monoclonal antibody. At the FDA's request, Oncopeptides stopped marketing Pepaxto in the US on October 22, 2021, and Pepaxto is currently not commercially available for US patients. The commercialization of Pepaxti® in Europe is ongoing. Pepaxti has a full approval from the European Medicines Agency, EMA, since August 18, 2022, and was approved by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, MHRA, in the UK on November 11, 2022. Both approvals take the large OCEAN study overall survival differences across relevant patient groups into account. Pepaxti is indicated in combination with dexamethasone, for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least three prior lines of therapies, whose disease is refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory agent, and one anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, and who have demonstrated disease progression on or after the last therapy. For patients with a prior autologous stem cell transplantation, the time to progression should be at least 3 years from transplantation. The Company is developing its preclinical pipeline, including the next generation of drug candidates from the PDC platform, as well as an NK-cell engager, built on the technology platform of "Small Polypeptide based Killer Engagers", SPiKEs.

Oncopeptides AB (publ) Announces Data from the Phase 3 Lighthouse Study Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced data from the phase 3 LIGHTHOUSE study that further confirms the clinical benefit of melflufen in patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The LIGHTHOUSE study investigated the efficacy and safety of the combination of melflufen plus daratumumab subcutaneous (sc) plus dexamethasone in comparison with daratumumab sc. (with supportive dexamethasone) in patients who were refractory to at least an immunomodulatory agent and a proteasome inhibitor or have received at least three prior lines of therapy including a proteasome inhibitor and an immunomodulatory agent. LIGHTHOUSE is a randomized, open label phase 3 trial, designed as a confirmatory study in addition to the phase 3 OCEAN study. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). The study started in December 2020 and was planned to include 240 patients. In July 2021, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requested a partial clinical hold of all studies with melflufen. Consequently, patient recruitment in LIGHTHOUSE was halted after 54 patients had been randomized. The clinical study was prematurely terminated in February 2022. Twenty-seven patients were randomized to each treatment arm. Patient characteristics were balanced between the two study arms. The observed efficacy and safety profile for the daratumumab sc. control arm in LIGHTHOUSE was in line with the approval labels in EU and USA with numerically higher PFS and Overall Response Rate (ORR). Despite the small number of patients enrolled in LIGHTHOUSE at the time of study termination (n=54), the PFS in the ITT population was superior for the melflufen treatment arm in comparison with the control arm with a hazard-ratio (HR) of 0.18 and a nominal p-value of 0.0032. The ITT ORR was superior with a nominal p-value of 0.030, and the ITT Overall Survival (OS) HR was 0.47 with a nominal p-value of 0.37. In the patient population where the European Medicines Agency (EMA) confirmed melflufen clinical benefit based on the OCEAN trial, the LIGHTHOUSE study (n=29) demonstrated superior PFS with a HR of 0.062 with a nominal p-value of 0.0005, superior ORR with a nominal p-value of 0.0051, and superior OS with a HR of 0.00 with a nominal p-value of 0.037. This patient population excludes patients with post-ASCT time-to-progression <36 months. The safety profile of the melflufen and daratumumab sc combination was in line with what was observed in the phase 1/2 ANCHOR study, with predominantly clinically manageable cytopenias. The ANCHOR study was evaluating safety and efficacy of melflufen plus dexamethasone in combination with either daratumumab sc or bortezomib in patients with RRMM. Announcement • Oct 04
Oncopeptides AB (publ) Starts Commercialization of Pepaxti in Europe - Germany First Market Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced that the Company has submitted the AMNOG dossier to "The Federal Joint Committee" (G-BA) in Germany. This initiates the commercial launch of Pepaxti and thus Germany will be the first market in Europe where the drug is launched. On August 18, the European Commission granted Pepaxti, in combination with dexamethasone, Marketing Authorization in the European Union and countries in the European Economic Area, for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least three prior lines of therapies, whose disease is refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory agent, and one anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, and who have demonstrated disease progression on or after the last therapy. For patients with a prior autologous stem cell transplantation, the time to progression should be at least 3 years from transplantation.

The price is valid for one year and will be subject to negotiations with the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds to set a reimbursed price for German sick funds. According to data from more than 60 sick funds in Germany in 2020, the prevalence of multiple myeloma is estimated to 59.000 patients and the annual incidence of diagnosed patients is approximately 9.200 cases. The indicated population for Pepaxti in Germany amounts to around 2.500 patients. Announcement • Sep 23
Oncopeptides AB (publ) Provides Update from Meeting with Advisory Committee ODAC Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced that the Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee (ODAC), of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), has finalized the discussion on the benefit-risk profile of Pepaxto® (melphalan flufenamide, also called melflufen). A majority of the panel considered that OCEAN did not confirm a favorable benefit-risk profile in the current indicated patient population. Pepaxto is indicated in combination with dexamethasone, for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), who have received at least four prior lines of therapy and whose disease is refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory agent, and one CD38-directed monoclonal antibody. In the light of the outcome of the OCEAN trial, the FDA has asked the ODAC panel to vote on the following question: “Given the potential detriment in overall survival (OS), failure to demonstrate a progression-free survival (PFS) benefit, and lack of an appropriate dose, is the benefit risk profile of melphalan flufenamide favorable for the currently indicated patient population?” In a 14 to 2 vote, the ODAC answered no to the question. The FDA will not issue a final determination on the issues discussed until input from the advisory committee process has been considered and all reviews have been finalized. Announcement • Sep 08

Oncopeptides AB (Publ) Announces Data from Phase 3 Ocean Study Published in the Lancet Haematology Oncopeptides AB (publ) announced that the data from the randomized head-to-head phase 3 OCEAN study, evaluating the efficacy and safety of melflufen (INN melphalan flufenamide) plus dexamethasone versus pomalidomide plus dexamethasone in lenalidomide refractory patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) that have received 2-4 prior lines of therapy, have been published in the Lancet Hematology. The OCEAN study was initiated in 2017 and includes 495 patients from 108 hospitals in 21 countries across Europe, North America, and Asia. In the intention to treat population (ITT) melflufen met the primary endpoint of superior Progression Free Survival (PFS) as assessed by the Independent Review Committee, with a median PFS of 6.8 months, compared to 4.9 months for pomalidomide with a Hazard Ratio (HR) of 0.79 (p-value 0.03). PFS was defined as the time from randomization to confirmed disease progression or death. Key secondary endpoints were Overall Response Rate (ORR), Overall Survival (OS) and safety. The ORR, the proportion of patients with a complete or partial response, was 33 % in the melflufen group and 27 % in the pomalidomide group (non-statistically different). The ITT OS HR was 1.10 (non-statistically different). The study showed a highly heterogenous OS HR result with significant statistical interactions between the OS HR result and patient characteristics such as Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT) and gender. Further analyses of the result and their potential implications are ongoing. Safety endpoints were treatment duration, frequency and grade of adverse events, frequency of events leading to dose modifications, and time to dose modifications. The safety and tolerability of melflufen plus dexamethasone, were consistent with previous reports. Hematological treatment emergent adverse events were most common, and generally clinically manageable with dose modifications. Despite higher frequencies of grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia with melflufen compared to pomalidomide, the number of concurrent grade 3 or 4 bleeding with thrombocytopenia and infection events with neutropenia were low. Most patients continued therapy after dose reduction and few adverse events resulted in discontinuation of treatment. Board Change • Jan 02
