Epidemiology & Unmet Need

==> picture [184 x 173] intentionally omitted <==

1L NSCLC Epidemiology[1,2]

  • 1.87 million NSCLC diagnoses per annum worldwide

  • NSCLC is the highest cause of death among all cancers

  • Current total addressable market (TAM) of NSCLC drug market is ~$24 billion

  • Approximately one million patients per annum that develop metastatic NSCLC disease & are eligible to receive anti-PD-(L)1 therapy

  • Up to 80% patients do not respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) monotherapy & median Overall Survival (OS) is still under 24 months for most patients

  • ICI & chemo combinations have limited Duration of Response & high discontinuation rates due to toxicity

High unmet medical need for well tolerated, efficacious and durable treatment options, preferably chemo free

  • NSCLC drug market is expected to nearly double to US$48 billion in 2031, and immune checkpoint inhibitors are expected to earn more than half of these sales (US$26 billion)[3]

  • Efti could double the addressable NSCLC patient population with an effective, safe chemo-free IO regimen (i.e., >

  • patients with either 1-49% and/or 50% PD-L1 TPS)

Note: Patients were recruited according to Simon’s optimal twostage design: during the first stage, 17 pts were recruited; second stage recruitment (n=19) was opened only after the number of responses was above 4. An extension stage (n=78) could be added if there were above 12 responses. In total, 114 pts were enrolled.

Significant 35.5-Month Median OS Reached in TPS >1%

> Patients with any PD-L1 expression or TPS 1% represent ~65% of the 1L NSCLC patient population

  • Significant median OS of 35.5 months[1]

  • 48.3% ORR, median PFS of 11.2 months, and median DoR of 24.2 months

  • 12-month PFS- and 36-month OS-rate are very promising at 46.8% and 45.6%, respectively

  • Strength of data in PD-L1 TPS 1-49% (N=38, 66% of TPS >1% group[#] ), including 44.7% ORR, 9.3-month mPFS, mDOR not reached, and 23.4-month mOS, contributed significantly to overall results in TPS >1% unlike other IO-IO combinations

Overall Survival, TPS >1%

Progression Free Survival, TPS >1%[2]

For reference, in TPS >1%, TACTI-002 has 66% patients with TPS 1-49% and 34% with TPS >50%, which compares to KN-042 with ~53% patients with PD-L1 and ~47% patients with PD-L1 TPS >50%.

1 The mOS in TPS ≥1% was attained with both central assessment of PD-L1 (N=58) and in larger patient group with central + local assessment of PD-L1 (N=71). 2 iRECIST and RECIST 1.1 for PFS was comparable with 61.6%, 43.7% and 32.8% at 6, 12, and 18 months, respectively, as per RECIST1.1. 3 95% confidence intervals calculated using Clopper-Pearson method or using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis method.

Design:

  • Evaluating triple combination therapy consisting of efti in conjunction with carboplatin/pemetrexed & anti-PD-1 therapy

Outlook:

  • Study focuses on pts with TPS <50%

  • Trial assessing safety, tolerability and initial efficacy

Key aspects:

  • 21 pts recruited as of Jan 2023 → extension opened in summer 2023 and trial has already recruited six additional patients

  • Strong 67% ORR and 91% DCR detailed in ESMO abstract with older cutoff date (updated data to be presented at ESMO with later cutoff date and more mature data)

  • Immutep is looking forward to have the additional patients recruited soon → expected by H1 2024

  • Current IO-chemotherapy combinations generate ORR near 40% level for patients with TPS <50%. Goal is to generate a higher ORR as compared to any approved chemo + anti-PD-1 combination in this TPS <50% setting that would warrant further investigation.

  • Triple combination has been well tolerated & appears to be safe. No occurrence of unacceptable toxicities.

Benchmarking

Efti + anti-PD1 + Chemo vs. SoCs in PD-L1 TPS <50%

==> picture [173 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

ORR

Key takeaways:

(TPS <50%)

  • Until now chemo combination mostly used in pts with TPS <50% → ORR of SoC around ~40% foremost → high unmet medical need especially for long-term outcomes

  • SoC historically achieved around ~7.5 months mPFS in TPS <50% population

  • → Efti on top of chemo + PD-1 leads to ORR >> 60% and 10.9 months mPFS in INSIGHT-003

Efti Uniquely Positioned in 1st line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Large potential opportunity for efti with both chemo-free IO-IO and IO-IO-chemo combinations

==> picture [173 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

1L NSCLC Patient Population by PD-L1 Tumor Proportion Score (TPS)[1]

PD-1 expression levels have substantial impact on clinical outcomes for anti-PD-(L)1 therapies. The strength of the clinical data presented at ESMO 2023, SITC 2022, and ASCO 2022 shows efti has significant potential to address all PD-L1 levels .

TPS >50% = ~30% population

  • Best responders to anti-PD-(L)1 therapies

  • PD-1 alone efficacious yet most effective in patients with very high PD-L1 expression[2]

  • More efficacious chemo-free options needed

TPS 1-49% = ~35% population

  • Suboptimal responses to anti-PD-(L)1 therapies

  • No chemo-free IO approved in Europe

  • PD-1 alone is ‘NCCN Category 2B’ therapy in US

  • High unmet need for chemo-free IO therapies especially in terms of long-term survival

TPS <1% = ~35% population

  • Negligible response to anti-PD-(L)1 therapies

  • IO-chemo combo not always better than chemo alone (e.g., Empower Lung-3)

  • Very high unmet need for better therapies

65% patient population, >$10 billion TAM[3]

Strategy A: IO-IO

70% patient population, >$10 billion TAM[3]

Strategy B: Chemo-IO-IO

Goal: Create an efficacious chemo-free regimen for 1L NSCLC patients with TPS ≥1% without actionable mutations.

Goal: Create a new standard for 1st line NSCLC patients with TPS <50% without actionable mutations.

On 17 May 2023 IMMP was one of the most highly traded stocks on NASDAQ (as shown below), following the release of the initial overall survival benefit data in 1st line NSCLC. To celebrate this achievement, NASDAQ's bell tower in Times Square lit up with a congratulatory message to Immutep!

YTD comparison of IMMP (Immutep NASDAQ traded ADR and the Exchange Traded Fund XBI (S&P Biotech ETF representing the US listed biotech industry)*. IMMP YTD +16.57% / XBI YTD -19.17%.

  • Sector continues to face reduced capital availability in a landscape of higher rates and tightening credit conditions with high geopolitical uncertainty

  • Sector performance is expected to improve as the year progresses, with select high-quality, catalyst-driven smaller-cap biotechnology Companies.

  • Sector’s capacity to innovate as a whole remains robust and there are signs big institutions are re-entering the sector.
