jU5MDAwZTk2NTk1MzBhYWUwZWRhY2Q6cDpGOkY) (NYSE: BMY, "BMS") today announced first
data from the global Phase 2 ROSETTA Lung-107 clinical trial (NCT06841055
(https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06841055)) evaluating pumitamig, an
investigational PD-L1xVEGF-A bispecific immunomodulator (BNT327/BMS986545), in
combination with docetaxel in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung
cancer ("NSCLC") whose disease progressed on or after first-line immunotherapy
plus chemotherapy.
The data showed encouraging antitumor activity, with responses observed in both
squamous and non-squamous NSCLC and across PD-L1 expression levels, together
with a manageable safety profile consistent with prior global datasets for
pumitamig. The data were presented today in a late-breaking rapid oral
presentation (abstract #LBA76
(https://cslide.ctimeetingtech.com/esmo2026/attendee/confcal/session)) at the
European Society for Medical Oncology ("ESMO") Congress 2026 in Madrid, Spain.
"Despite meaningful advances in first-line treatment, outcomes remain poor for
the many patients with non-small cell lung cancer whose disease progresses after
immunotherapy plus chemotherapy, a setting where docetaxel has remained the
standard of care for years,"(1) said Byoung Chul Cho, M.D., Ph.D., Trial
Investigator and Professor of Medical Oncology at Yonsei Cancer Center, Yonsei
University College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea. "These first data from
ROSETTA Lung-107 show encouraging response rates and progression-free survival
across PD-L1 expression levels and histology, suggesting that pumitamig may help
re-engage antitumor immunity in patients who have progressed on prior
immunotherapy plus chemotherapy. These findings support continued investigation
of pumitamig in this population with high unmet need."
ROSETTA Lung-107 is evaluating pumitamig 1400 mg in combination with docetaxel
every three weeks. The July 10, 2026, data cut-off included 50 patients with a
median follow-up of 12.2 weeks, and 33 patients remained on treatment. Among 30
efficacy-evaluable patients, pumitamig plus docetaxel showed a confirmed
objective response rate ("cORR") of 36.7% with a disease control rate ("DCR") of
90.0%. Responses were observed across PD-L1 expression levels (cORR: 42.9% TPS ?
1%; 33.3% TPS 1-49%; 40.0% TPS >= 50%) and histologies (cORR: 57.1% squamous;
30.4% non-squamous), with DCRs above 80% in all subgroups. Median time to
response was 1.4 months. In the overall treated population (n=50), median
progression-free survival ("PFS") was 6.9 months (95% CI: 4.2 - not reached),
with a six-month PFS rate of 63.3%. Historically, standard-of-care docetaxel has
delivered a median PFS of approximately 3.6 or 3.9 months for non-squamous and
squamous metastatic NSCLC patients, respectively, following prior immunotherapy
plus chemotherapy.(1)
"Our ambition is to improve outcomes for patients across the full spectrum of
lung cancer, spanning disease subtypes, stages and lines of therapy," said Prof.
Özlem Türeci, M.D., Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer at BioNTech. "These
encouraging results for pumitamig plus docetaxel extend the clinical evidence to
patients whose disease has progressed after immunotherapy plus chemotherapy, a
setting in which treatment options remain limited. Together with our findings in
first-line NSCLC and extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, they support our
strategy to develop pumitamig across a broad range of lung cancer settings,
including those with particularly high unmet medical need."
"This is the third global Phase 2 dataset to show consistent activity for
pumitamig in lung cancer across PD-L1 expression levels, and it extends our
evidence into a second-line setting where current options fall short," said
Cristian Massacesi, Executive Vice President, Chief Medical Officer and Head of
Development at Bristol Myers Squibb. "Together with BioNTech, we are advancing
one of the broadest development programs in the class as we continue to build
the growing body of clinical evidence for pumitamig across multiple types and
treatment lines of lung cancer, with four ongoing global Phase 3 trials, and we
look forward to defining the path forward for pumitamig in second-line NSCLC."
Across 50 patients in the safety evaluation, pumitamig plus chemotherapy showed
a manageable safety profile, with no new safety signals. Pumitamig treatment-
related adverse events ("TRAEs") of any grade were reported in 52.0% of patients
and grade >= 3 TRAEs in 18.0%, leading to treatment discontinuation in four
(8.0%) patients. Immune- related AEs occurred in 11 (22.0%) patients and grade >=
3 immune- related AEs in five (10.0%) patients. VEGF-related events were
reported in 13 (26.0%) patients; grade 3 events were rare (two patients, 4.0%),
with no grade 4 or 5 events. Bleeding events occurred in eight (16.0%) patients
and were limited to grade 1 or 2 severity. There were no pumitamig-related
deaths or dose-limiting toxicities ("DLTs").
BioNTech and BMS are advancing a broad development plan for pumitamig in
multiple cancer types, including lung cancer across disease stages, subgroups
and lines of therapy. ROSETTA Lung-107 extends the program into the second-line
NSCLC setting, and these data will inform the further development of pumitamig
in this underserved patient population.
About ROSETTA Lung-107
The global, open-label, single-arm Phase 2 ROSETTA Lung-107 trial (NCT06841055
(https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06841055)) is evaluating pumitamig
(BNT327/BMS986545) in combination with docetaxel in patients with stage IV
squamous or non-squamous NSCLC whose disease progressed following first-line
immunotherapy plus chemotherapy, with any level of PD-L1 expression. Patients
with prior exposure to anti-VEGF monoclonal antibodies or PD-(L)1xVEGF
bispecific antibodies were excluded. In Part 1 (safety run-in), patients
received pumitamig 1400 mg or 2000 mg plus docetaxel 75 mg/m² every three weeks
(Q3W). In Part 2 (dose expansion), patients received pumitamig 1400 mg plus
docetaxel 75 mg/m² Q3W, the dose recommended by the internal review committee
based on the totality of evidence from Part 1 and the broader pumitamig lung
cancer program. The primary endpoints are dose-limiting toxicities (Part 1
only), safety, and objective response rate ("ORR") per investigator's assessment
(RECIST 1.1). Secondary endpoints include disease control rate ("DCR"), duration
of response ("DOR"), depth of response, time to response, progression-free
survival ("PFS"), overall survival ("OS"), pharmacokinetics, and antidrug
antibody prevalence. The trial enrolled 59 patients at sites in Australia, the
Republic of Korea, Spain, Türkiye, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
About Pumitamig
Pumitamig is an investigational bispecific immunomodulator, jointly developed by
BioNTech and BMS, designed to cooperatively bind to PD-L1 and VEGF-A. It is
aimed at restoring the immune system's ability to recognize and destroy tumor
cells while simultaneously cutting off the blood and oxygen supply that feeds
tumor cells (anti-angiogenesis effect), preventing them from growing and
proliferating. By anchoring to PD-L1 receptors on tumor cells, we believe
pumitamig localizes VEGF-A blockade within the tumor microenvironment,
potentially enhancing antitumor activity while minimizing systemic exposure.
More than 4,000 patients have been treated with pumitamig in clinical trials to
date. Seven global Phase 3 trials with registrational potential are currently
ongoing, evaluating pumitamig plus chemotherapy compared to standard of care
treatments, in first-line small cell lung cancer (ROSETTA Lung-01, NCT06712355

identifying additional pivotal opportunities.
About NSCLC
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) covers all epithelial lung cancers other than
small cell lung cancer and includes squamous cell carcinoma, large cell
carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma of the lung. It is the most common type of lung
cancer, accounting for approximately 85% of cases, and is the leading cause of
cancer-related deaths worldwide.(2) Scientific advances have transformed the
treatment of NSCLC, improving outcomes for many patients. However, NSCLC remains
an aggressive disease with a poor prognosis and a 5-year survival rate of 18 to
22% in advanced stages.(3) Patients with low levels of PD-L1 expression
typically do not respond well to checkpoint inhibitor-based regimens creating a
significant unmet need for new treatment options that provide durable responses
to a broad range of patients.
