I-Mab (NASDAQ: IMAB) (the "Company"), a global biotech enterprise headquartered in the United States, dedicated to developing innovative immunotherapies specifically for cancer treatment, announced the presentation of a poster focusing on promising top-line results from its active Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT04900818) of givastomig. Givastomig is a pioneering first-in-class bispecific antibody immunostimulant targeting Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2) and 4-1BB, tested on patients with advanced malignancies, notably gastric cancers, including gastroesophageal carcinoma (GEC). This presentation occurred at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2024, held in Barcelona, Spain.

Givastomig (TJ033721 / ABL111) is a bispecific antibody that targets Claudin 18.2-positive tumor cells and conditionally activates T cells via the 4-1BB pathway within the tumor microenvironment where Claudin 18.2 is present. Givastomig distinguishes itself from other Claudin 18.2-targeting therapies by demonstrating localized and conditional activation in nonclinical studies, even in tumors with minimal CLDN18.2 expression. Additionally, it has shown a favorable safety profile in clinical trial participants thus far.
"We believe givastomig could potentially serve as a frontline treatment option for patients with gastric cancers. Data presented at ESMO 2024 indicate that givastomig has consistently shown monotherapy efficacy in heavily pre-treated patients, including those with varying levels of Claudin 18.2 expression, while maintaining an excellent overall safety profile. This combination of attributes reinforces our belief that givastomig has the potential to be a distinctive, leading therapy in its class," stated Dr. Phillip Dennis, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of I-Mab. "The initial evaluation of givastomig as a frontline treatment for gastric cancers is currently in progress. The Phase 1b dose expansion study will assess givastomig in combination with standard-of-care treatment, nivolumab plus chemotherapy. We remain highly optimistic about the program and anticipate sharing the study's results in the latter half of 2025."
