Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation may contain projections and other forward-looking statements regarding future events. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this presentation, including statements regarding our future financial condition, technology platform, development strategy, prospective products, preclinical and clinical pipeline and milestones, regulatory objectives, expected payments from and outcomes of collaborations, and likelihood of success, are forward-looking statements. Such statements are predictions only and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among others, the costs, timing and results of preclinical studies and clinical trials and other development activities; uncertainties inherent in the initiation and enrollment of clinical trials; uncertainties on the availability and timing of data from clinical trials; the risk that initial clinical data may not reflect later clinical trial results; the unpredictability of the duration and results of regulatory review; the uncertainty of market acceptance for approved products and innovative therapeutic treatments; competition; the potential not to receive partnership milestone, profit sharing or royalty payments; the possible impairment of or inability to obtain intellectual property rights; possible safety or efficacy concerns with our drug candidates; and general business, financial and accounting risks and litigation. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

PROBODY® T-Cell Engager Strategy
© 2024 CytomX Therapeutics, Inc.
CytomX PROBODY® T-cell Engagers are Designed to Address Key Limitations of Conventional TCEs in Solid Tumors
PROBODY® T-Cell Engagers
Substrate linkers
Masks
- Conventional T-Cellengagers are highly potent, but their use in solid tumors is significantly limited by:
- Systemic toxicities such as Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and ICANS
- On-target,off-tumor toxicity
- Masked, Conditionally activated Probody® T-Cell engagers are designed to retain potent anti-tumoractivity while having less systemic toxicities
- CytomX has a broad pipeline of internal and partnered PROBODY® TCE programs with retained commercial rights on select programs, including CX-904 (EGFR-CD3)
