(OXFORDSHIRE, England & CONSHOHOCKEN, Penn. & GAITHERSBURG, Md., US, 06 November 2024) Immunocore Holdings plc (Nasdaq: IMCR) (“Immunocore” or the “Company”), a commercial-stage biotechnology company pioneering and delivering transformative immunomodulating medicines to radically improve outcomes for patients with cancer, infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 and provided a business update.

“We are proud to report another strong quarter, marking two years of continuous growth for KIMMTRAK and another quarter of positive net income,” said Bahija Jallal, Immunocore’s Chief Executive Officer. “We are also making significant strides in advancing our broad pipeline – with brenetafusp in oncology, the HIV functional cure trial in infectious diseases, and in autoimmune diseases with tissue-targeted programs for type 1 diabetes and dermatologic diseases.”

“KIMMTRAK’s 28% growth over Q3 last year is driven by higher demand in the United States and Germany and by expanded patient reach with 11 launches this year,” said Ralph Torbay, Immunocore’s Chief Commercial Officer. “We are excited about the potential to bring KIMMTRAK to more patients with melanoma through the Phase 3 TEBE-AM trial that is expected to complete enrollment in early 2026, and the Phase 3 ATOM trial that is planned to start randomization this quarter.”

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights (including post-period)

KIMMTRAK
The Company’s lead product, KIMMTRAK, is approved in 38 countries and has been launched in 21 countries globally to date for HLA-A*02:01 positive patients with unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM). KIMMTRAK continues to be the standard of care in most markets where it is launched. The Company sees three key growth areas for KIMMTRAK: continued expansion in mUM, the potential expansion into 2L+ advanced cutaneous melanoma and adjuvant uveal melanoma.

Metastatic uveal melanoma

  • KIMMTRAK net product sales were $80.2 million and $225.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, representing increases of 28% and 32% respectively, compared to the prior year periods.
  • Growth in the US and Germany was driven by increased demand based on continued community penetration and growing duration of treatment.
  • New baseline blood gene expression signature data was presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology 2024 Meeting (ESMO 2024) confirming that T cell fitness in blood is an important parameter of clinical activity for KIMMTRAK in previously treated uveal melanoma.

2L+ previously treated cutaneous melanoma

  • Randomization continues in the registrational Phase 3 trial (TEBE-AM), which includes three arms – KIMMTRAK monotherapy, KIMMTRAK in combination with pembrolizumab, and control. The Company expects to complete randomization in the first half of 2026.
  • The TEBE-AM Phase 3 trial in 2L+ cutaneous melanoma has a primary endpoint of overall survival.

Adjuvant uveal (or ocular) melanoma

  • Randomization in the ATOM Phase 3 trial, led by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), is on track to start in the fourth quarter of 2024.
  • ATOM is currently the only active registrational Phase 3 trial in adjuvant uveal melanoma.

PRAME
Brenetafusp (IMC-F106C) is the Company’s lead PRAME-A02 ImmTAC bispecific candidate. Brenetafusp is being evaluated in combination with nivolumab, in a Phase 3 registrational trial (PRISM-MEL-301) in patients with first-line advanced cutaneous melanoma and in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial, as monotherapy and in combination, across multiple tumor types, including ovarian, non-small cell lung (NSCLC), and endometrial carcinoma.

PRISM-MEL-301 – First PRAME Phase 3 clinical trial with brenetafusp in first-line advanced or metastatic HLA-A*02:01 positive cutaneous melanoma

  • Ongoing randomization of patients in PRISM-MEL-301 in multiple countries.
  • Trial is evaluating brenetafusp + nivolumab versus a control arm of either nivolumab or nivolumab + relatlimab.

Phase 1/2 clinical trial of brenetafusp (PRAME-A02) in multiple solid tumors

  • Clinical data presented at ESMO 2024 from the Phase 1 trial in patients with heavily pre-treated platinum-resistant high grade serous ovarian cancer showed signals of activity in heavily pretreated, platinum resistant patients. Disease control rate was 58% in monotherapy patients and 69% for combination patients. Overall survival (OS) was still maturing (73% 6-months OS rate in the monotherapy cohort). ctDNA molecular response rate was 31% and 82%, respectively, in the monotherapy and combination cohorts, associated with longer progression free survival and OS. Brenetafusp is well tolerated as monotherapy and in combination with gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel and pegylated doxorubicin.
  • Data presented at ESMO 2024 showed peripheral blood T cell fitness signature is an important parameter of brenetafusp clinical activity in ovarian cancer and uveal melanoma.
  • The Company is currently evaluating brenetafusp in combination with non-platinum chemotherapies in platinum resistant ovarian cancer and with bevacizumab and with platinum chemotherapy in earlier lines of platinum sensitive ovarian cancer.
  • The Company continues signal detection for brenetafusp in metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer cohorts, including in combination with docetaxel and with osimertinib in earlier-line NSCLC. As a result, the Company will not release initial data in the fourth quarter of 2024.

IMC-P115C (PRAME-A02 Half-Life Extended) & IMC-T119C (PRAME-A24)

  • On track for first patient to be treated in the Phase 1 trial with IMC-P115C in first half of 2025.

Additional Oncology Candidates

IMC-R117C (first PIWIL1-A02 targeted immunotherapy) for colorectal and other gastrointestinal cancers
The Company has leveraged its proprietary peptidomic database to validate a novel target, PIWIL1. PIWIL1 is a negative prognostic marker and is expressed across a range of tumors including colorectal, which is historically insensitive to immune checkpoints, as well as gastro-esophageal, and pancreatic cancer.

  • Remain on track to treat the first patient in the Phase 1/2 trial of IMC-R117C in the fourth quarter of 2024.
  • The Phase 1/2 trial will assess the safety and clinical activity of IMC-R117C, as a monotherapy and in combination with standards of care, in colorectal and other gastrointestinal cancers.

ImmTAV candidates for a functional cure in infectious diseases
The Company’s bispecific TCR technology platform has potential to offer a new approach for the treatment of chronic infections and aims to eliminate evidence of remaining virus in circulation after the patient stops taking medication - known as a "functional cure". Two investigational candidates are in Phase 1 clinical trials for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and people with chronic Hepatitis B infection (HBV).

Phase 1 trial of IMC-M113V (Gag-A02) for people living with HIV

  • The objective of the clinical trial is to identify a safe and tolerable dose and evaluate whether IMC-M113V could lead to reduction in the viral reservoir and, after stopping antiretroviral therapies and IMC-M113V, delay or prevent HIV rebound.
  • A biologically active dose in the multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of the trial has been reached and the Company is enrolling more people living with HIV to characterize anti-viral activity and to explore higher doses with data expected in the first quarter of 2025.

Phase 1 trial of IMC-I109V (Envelope-A02) for people living with HBV

  • Expect to complete the single ascending dose (SAD) portion of the trial in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Tissue-specific down modulation of the immune system for autoimmune diseases
The Company is expanding its platform into autoimmune diseases with two new, first-in-class bispecific candidates recently entering its pipeline. The key differentiator of the Company’s ImmTAAI (Immune Modulating Monoclonal TCRs Against AutoImmune disease) platform is tissue-specific down modulation of the immune system whereby, when tethered to the tissue of interest, the new candidates suppress pathogenic T cells via PD1 receptor agonism.

IMC-S118AI (pre-pro insulin A02 x PD1), intended for disease-modifying treatment in type 1 diabetes

  • IMC-S118AI recognizes a peptide from pre-proinsulin presented by HLA-A02 on beta cells, coupled with a PD1 agonist effector arm.

Undisclosed non-HLA restricted (universal) candidate for inflammatory dermatological diseases

  • The candidate is an antigen presenting cell (APC) tethered ImmTAAI and is not HLA restricted (i.e. universal for all populations).

Corporate Updates

In August, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Head of Strategy, Brian Di Donato, informed the Company of his plans to leave at the end of the year, to take the role of Chief Executive Officer at a private, early-stage biotech headquartered in San Diego, California. The Company is progressing in its search for a new CFO. Brian will remain as the Company’s CFO and Head of Strategy through the end of 2024, to ensure a smooth transition.

Financial Results

For the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company generated net product sales of $80.2 million compared to $62.6 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was due to revenue from KIMMTRAK, of which $57.3 million was in the United States, $21.0 million in Europe, and $1.9 million in international regions. The increase in net product sales was due primarily to increased volume in the United States and global country expansion, as the Company continued its commercialization efforts.

For the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, research and development (R&D) expenses were $52.8 million, compared to $43.2 million for the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by expenses incurred for the tebentafusp programs, including the Phase 3 trials: TEBE-AM in previously treated advanced cutaneous melanoma and ATOM in adjuvant uveal melanoma.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, SG&A expenses were $35.5 million, compared to $35.5 million for the same period in 2023.

Basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.17 for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as compared to a basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.02 for the same period in 2023. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $8.7 million, as compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2023.

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at September 30, 2024 were $901.3 million. The Company plans to use existing cash to repay its $50 million loan by the end of 2024 and also expects to pay approximately $40 million in sales-related rebate accruals in the fourth quarter of 2024.

About ImmTAC® molecules for cancer

Immunocore’s proprietary T cell receptor (TCR) technology generates a novel class of bispecific biologics called ImmTAC (Immune mobilizing monoclonal TCRs Against Cancer) molecules that are designed to redirect the immune system to recognize and kill cancerous cells. ImmTAC molecules are soluble TCRs engineered to recognize intracellular cancer antigens with ultra-high affinity and selectively kill these cancer cells via an anti-CD3 immune-activating effector function. Based on the demonstrated mechanism of T cell infiltration into human tumors, the ImmTAC mechanism of action holds the potential to treat hematologic and solid tumors, regardless of mutational burden or immune infiltration, including immune “cold” low mutation rate tumors.

About ImmTAV® molecules and infectious diseases

ImmTAV (Immune mobilizing monoclonal TCRs Against Virus) molecules are novel bispecifics that are designed to enable the immune system to recognize and eliminate virally infected cells.
Immunocore is advancing clinical candidates to achieve functional cure for patients with HIV and hepatitis B virus (HBV). The Company aims to achieve sustained control of HIV after patients stop anti-retroviral therapy (ART), without the risk of virological relapse or onward transmission. This is known as ‘functional cure’. For the treatment of HBV, the Company aims to achieve sustained loss of circulating viral antigens and markers of viral replication after stopping medication for people living with chronic HBV.

About ImmTAAITM molecules and autoimmune diseases

ImmTAAI (Immune mobilizing monoclonal TCRs Against AutoImmune disease) molecules are novel bispecifics that are designed for tissue-specific down modulation of the immune system. When tethered to the tissue of interest, ImmTAAI candidates suppress pathogenic T cells via PD1 receptor agonism. The Company is currently advancing two candidates for autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes and inflammatory dermatological diseases.

About PRISM-MEL-301 (NCT06112314) – Phase 3 trial with brenetafusp (IMC-F106C, PRAME-A02) in 1L advanced cutaneous melanoma

The Phase 3 registrational trial is randomizing HLA-A*02:01-positive patients with previously untreated advanced melanoma, to brenetafusp + nivolumab versus nivolumab or nivolumab + relatlimab, depending on the country where the patient is enrolled. The trial will initially randomize to three arms: two brenetafusp dose regimens (40 mcg and 160 mcg) and a control arm. One of the two brenetafusp dose regimens will be discontinued after an initial review of the first 60 patients randomized to the two experimental arms (90 patients randomized total). The primary endpoint of the trial is progression free survival (PFS) by blinded independent central review (BICR), with secondary endpoints of overall survival (OS) and overall response rate (ORR).

About the IMC-F106C-101 Phase 1/2 trial

IMC-F106C-101 is a first-in-human, Phase 1/2 dose escalation trial in patients with multiple solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), endometrial, ovarian, cutaneous melanoma, and breast cancers. The Phase 1 dose escalation trial was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), as well as to evaluate the safety, preliminary anti-tumor activity and pharmacokinetics of IMC-F106C (brenetafusp), a bispecific protein built on Immunocore’s ImmTAC technology, and the Company’s first molecule to target the PRAME antigen. The Company is enrolling patients into three expansion arms in NSCLC, as well as ovarian and endometrial carcinomas. The IMC-F106C-101 trial is adaptive and includes the option for Phase 2 expansion, allowing for approximately 100 patients treated per tumor type in the Phase 1 and 2 expansion arms. Dose escalation continues in additional solid tumors as well as plans for combination arms with standards-of-care, including checkpoint inhibitors, chemotherapy, and tebentafusp.

About TEBE-AM – Phase 3 registrational trial with tebentafusp in previously treated advanced cutaneous melanoma

The trial is randomizing patients with second-line or later advanced cutaneous melanoma who have progressed on an anti-PD1, received prior ipilimumab and, if applicable, received a BRAF kinase inhibitor. Patients are randomized to one of three arms, including tebentafusp – as monotherapy or in combination with an anti-PD1 – or a control arm. The primary endpoint is overall survival.

About the ATOM Phase 3 trial – Phase 3 registrational trial with tebentafusp in adjuvant uveal melanoma

The EORTC-led Phase 3 clinical trial will include sites in 10 EU countries and the United States and will randomize HLA-A*02:01-positive patients with high-risk primary uveal melanoma after definitive treatment, by surgery or radiotherapy, and no evidence of metastatic disease on imaging. The trial is expected to enroll a total of 290 patients who will be randomized 1:1 to one of two arms: tebentafusp as monotherapy or observation. The primary endpoint of the trial is relapse-free survival (RFS), with secondary objectives of overall survival and safety and tolerability of tebentafusp. Exploratory objectives include comparison of health-related quality of life between the treatment arms and evaluation of the role of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a biomarker for the presence of residual disease.

About Uveal Melanoma

Uveal melanoma is a rare and aggressive form of melanoma affecting the eye. Although it is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, the diagnosis is rare, and up to 50% of people with uveal melanoma will eventually develop metastatic disease. Unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma typically has a poor prognosis and had no approved treatment until KIMMTRAK.

About Cutaneous Melanoma

Cutaneous melanoma (CM) is the most common form of melanoma. It is the most aggressive skin carcinoma and is associated with the vast majority of skin cancer-related mortality. The majority of patients with CM are diagnosed before metastasis but survival remains poor for the large proportion of patients with metastatic disease. Despite recent progress in advanced melanoma therapy, there is still an unmet need for new therapies that improve first-line response rates and duration of response as well as for patients who are refractory to first-line treatments.

About KIMMTRAK®

KIMMTRAK is a novel bispecific protein comprised of a soluble T cell receptor fused to an anti-CD3 immune-effector function. KIMMTRAK specifically targets gp100, a lineage antigen expressed in melanocytes and melanoma. This is the first molecule developed using Immunocore’s ImmTAC technology platform, designed to redirect and activate T cells to recognize and kill tumor cells. KIMMTRAK has been approved for the treatment of HLA-A*02:01-positive adult patients with unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma in the United States, European Union, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS), which may be serious or life-threatening, occurred in patients receiving KIMMTRAK. Monitor for at least 16 hours following first three infusions and then as clinically indicated. Manifestations of CRS may include fever, hypotension, hypoxia, chills, nausea, vomiting, rash, elevated transaminases, fatigue, and headache. CRS occurred in 89% of patients who received KIMMTRAK, with 0.8% being grade 3 or 4. Ensure immediate access to medications and resuscitative equipment to manage CRS. Ensure patients are euvolemic prior to initiating the infusions. Closely monitor patients for signs or symptoms of CRS following infusions of KIMMTRAK. Monitor fluid status, vital signs, and oxygenation level and provide appropriate therapy. Withhold or discontinue KIMMTRAK depending on persistence and severity of CRS.

Skin Reactions

Skin reactions, including rash, pruritus, and cutaneous edema occurred in 91% of patients treated with KIMMTRAK. Monitor patients for skin reactions. If skin reactions occur, treat with antihistamine and topical or systemic steroids based on persistence and severity of symptoms. Withhold or permanently discontinue KIMMTRAK depending on the severity of skin reactions.

Elevated Liver Enzymes

Elevations in liver enzymes occurred in 65% of patients treated with KIMMTRAK. Monitor alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and total blood bilirubin prior to the start of and during treatment with KIMMTRAK. Withhold KIMMTRAK according to severity.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

KIMMTRAK may cause fetal harm. Advise pregnant patients of potential risk to the fetus and patients of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with KIMMTRAK and 1 week after the last dose.

The most common adverse reactions (≥30%) in patients who received KIMMTRAK were cytokine release syndrome, rash, pyrexia, pruritus, fatigue, nausea, chills, abdominal pain, edema, hypotension, dry skin, headache, and vomiting.
