"With key regulatory and manufacturing milestones achieved for mitazalimab and strengthened financials, we remain focused on identifying a strategic partner and initiating Phase 3. During the quarter, we successfully completed GMP manufacturing and received clear regulatory feedback from both the FDA and EMA-confirming dose, trial design and paediatric waiver-further strengthening the program's foundation. In parallel, new biomarker data presented at ASCO reinforced mitazalimab's clinical potential and relevance for patient stratification. Combined with the proceeds from TO 12, these developments move us into the next exciting stage of mitazalimab's journey."
Søren Bregenholt, CEO of Alligator Bioscience
