BOTHELL, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Immunome, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMNM), a biotechnology company focused on the development of first-in-class and best-in-class targeted oncology therapies, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, and provided a business update.
“Immunome continues to advance its pipeline,” said Clay B. Siegall, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer. “Topline data for the RINGSIDE Part B trial of AL102 is expected in the second half of 2025, and IND submissions for IM-1021 and IM-3050 are on track.”
“Our discovery team is focused on discovering ADCs that effectively pursue the novel targets we believe will define the next generation of transformative cancer therapies. In particular, the differentiated profile of HC74, our proprietary TOP1 payload, offers exciting opportunities for portfolio expansion when combined with our large repertoire of antibodies.”
