SMMT Takes the Stage at Four Key Investor Conferences—Investor Interest Builds Around Ivonescimab’s Global Momentum
Summit Therapeutics (NASDAQ:SMMT) is stepping into the spotlight, announcing plans to present at four major investor conferences by year-end 2025. This broad visibility push coincides with new data from their innovative cancer therapy ivonescimab and reflects a company determined to capture investor interest as clinical momentum accelerates globally.
Ivonescimab’s Distinctive Dual-Target Approach Fuels Clinical Interest
At the heart of SMMT’s presentations is ivonescimab, a potential first-in-class investigational bispecific antibody designed to block both PD-1 (immunotherapy) and VEGF (anti-angiogenesis). With a unique tetravalent structure allowing simultaneous, high-affinity binding, ivonescimab is engineered to concentrate its effects in the tumor microenvironment—potentially raising efficacy and reducing side effects compared to traditional treatments. Over 3,000 patients have been enrolled in global clinical trials, and the drug already has commercial experience in China, with more than 40,000 treated.
Robust Clinical Program—Multiple Phase III Trials Span Lung and Colorectal Cancer
Summit’s pipeline highlights include several ongoing and planned Phase III studies:
| Trial Name | Indication | Comparator | Status | Notable Dates |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HARMONi | NSCLC (EGFR-mutated, post-EGFR TKI) | Placebo + Chemotherapy | Enrollment complete | Top-line results: May 2025 |
| HARMONi-3 | First-line metastatic NSCLC | Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy | Ongoing | Results pending |
| HARMONi-7 | High PD-L1 NSCLC (1L) | Pembrolizumab monotherapy | Enrolling (US) | Launched: Early 2025 |
| HARMONi-GI3 | CRC (first-line, unresectable metastatic) | Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy | Planned | US sites opening: late 2025 |
Beyond Summit’s multi-regional Phase III studies, Akeso (ivonescimab’s developer in China) has completed three large, randomized Phase III studies for NSCLC and is actively studying the drug in other tumor types—including breast, pancreatic, biliary, and head and neck cancers.
Recent Achievements Highlight Progress—Approval and Fast Track Designation
In a sign of global validation, ivonescimab was granted marketing approval in China in May 2024, and it secured Fast Track status from the US FDA for its HARMONi trial. The therapy’s design and results continue to position Summit at the forefront of bispecific antibody development, targeting significant unmet needs in cancer therapy.
What to Watch—Investor Conferences Could Shape Near-Term Narrative
Summit’s management team will engage investors and industry leaders at four high-visibility events between November and December 2025.
