Presentation Details Title: Amplifying tumor specific immunity through lymph node targeted mKRAS-specific amphiphile vaccine in gastrointestinal tumors Session Date and Time: Tuesday, October 1, 2024, 9:40 a.m. PT Presenter: Christopher M. Haqq, M.D., Ph.D., Elicio Therapeutics Robert Connelly, Elicio’s Chief Executive Officer, added, “We are pleased to see upcoming meetings highlight recent data from patients who received the 7-peptide version of ELI-002 at the Phase 2 dose, where T cell response data correlated with reductions in tumor biomarker levels and reduced risk of progression or death. With Elicio’s $43 million funding raised to date in 2024 expected to provide runway into the second quarter of 2025, we look forward to providing additional clinical data updates from the AMPLIFY-201 trial expected in the fourth quarter of 2024 and the AMPLIFY-7P randomized Phase 2 interim analysis expected in first quarter of 2025.” About Elicio Therapeutics Elicio Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ELTX) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company advancing a pipeline of novel lymph node-targeted immunotherapies for the treatment of some of the most aggressive cancers. By combining expertise in immunology and immunotherapy, Elicio is harnessing the natural power of the immune system with the AMP technology, which allows for therapeutic payloads to be delivered directly to the lymph nodes, with the goal of enhancing the immune system’s cancer-fighting capabilities. By targeting cancer immunotherapies to the core of the immune response, AMP aims to optimize the lymph nodes’ natural ability to educate, activate and amplify cancer-specific T cells, which are essential for recognizing and eliminating tumor cells. Engineered to synchronize immunity in these highly potent sites, AMP is built to enhance the magnitude, potency, quality and durability of the immune response to drive antitumor activity. Elicio’s R&D pipeline includes off-the-shelf therapeutic cancer vaccines ELI-002, (targeting mKRAS-driven cancers) as well as ELI-007 and ELI-008 (targeting BRAF-driven cancers and p53 hotspot mutations, respectively).

About the Amphiphile Platform Our proprietary Amphiphile (“AMP”) platform delivers investigational immunotherapeutics directly to the “brain center” of the immune system – the lymph nodes. We believe this site-specific delivery of disease-specific antigens, adjuvants and other immunomodulators may efficiently educate, activate and amplify critical immune cells, potentially resulting in induction and persistence of potent adaptive immunity required to treat many diseases. In preclinical models, we have observed lymph node-specific engagement driving therapeutic immune responses of increased magnitude, function and durability. We believe our AMP lymph node-targeted approach will produce superior clinical benefits compared to immunotherapies that do not engage the lymph nodes based upon preclinical studies. Our AMP platform, originally developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has broad potential in the cancer space to advance a number of development initiatives through internal activities, in-licensing arrangements or development collaborations and partnerships. The AMP platform has been shown to deliver immunotherapeutics directly to the lymph nodes by latching on to the protein albumin, found in the bloodstream, as it travels to lymphatic tissue. In preclinical models, we have observed lymph node-specific engagement driving immune responses of increased magnitude, function and durability.
