IV. ANTIBODY-DRUG CONJUGATES RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
HUTCHMED has developed its comprehensive Antibody-targeted therapy conjugates (ATTCs) platform, next-generation solutions for small-molecule inhibitor payloads conjugated to monoclonal antibodies to deliver dual mechanisms of action, designed to meet critical medical needs. Each unique payload has broad potential to lead to a family of antibody conjugate drug candidates from this platform.
HMPL-A251, a first-in-class PI3K/PIKK-HER2 ATTC comprising of a highly selective and potent PI3K/PIKK inhibitor payload linked to a humanized anti-HER2 IgG1 antibody, via a cleavable linker
- First ATTC drug candidate, based on our PI3K/PIKK inhibitor payload to address the significant challenges faced in targeting this pathway, including on-target toxicities that restrict dosing and feedback loops that enable pathway reactivation. PI3K/PIKK inhibitor payload ATTCs are designed to enhance targeted delivery directly to tumor cells, maximizing therapeutic benefit while minimizing systemic exposure.
- Presented preclinical data at AACR-NCI-EORTC in October 2025, showing robust antitumor activity with synergistic and bystander killing effects, including compared to co-administration of antibody and payload.
- Initiated global Phase I/IIa trial in December 2025, evaluating HMPL-A251 in adult patients with unresectable, advanced or metastatic HER2-expressing solid tumors, with sites in the US and China.
HMPL-A580, a first-in-class PI3K/PIKK-EGFR ATTC comprising of a PI3K/PIKK inhibitor payload linked to a humanized anti-EGFR IgG1 antibody, via a cleavable linker
- Second ATTC based on the PI3K/PIKK inhibitor payload. EGFR is a well-recognized driver in tumor formation and disease progression. Modulation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is required for EGFR-mediated tumorigenesis or resistance to EGFR-targeted therapy.
- Preclinical data have shown that PAM pathway inhibition synergizes with anti-EGFR therapy to enhance anti-tumor activity, and will be presented at an upcoming scientific conference.
- Initiated global trial in March 2026, evaluating in EGFR solid tumors, with US and China sites.
Further preclinical progress with antibody drug conjugates

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 was
- Oncology/Immunology consolidated revenue amounted to
$285.5 million (2024:$363.4m ):- FRUZAQLA® revenue was
$89.4 million (2024:$110.8m ), impacted primarily due to$20 million commercial payment recognized from Takeda in 2024. In-market sales by Takeda were$366.2 million (up26% ) driven by strong growth following approvals in 38 countries to date, including over 15 in 2025. - ELUNATE® revenue was
$76.9 million (2024:$86.3m ), which reflects our initiatives to enhance controls over commercial operations to align with the evolving regulatory landscape and uphold the highest compliance standards. We also streamlined our sales force to build a more efficient commercial organization and to enhance productivity. These initiatives only temporarily weighed on performance, with revenue growth of29% in the second half of 2025 compared to the first half. This recovery was supported by refocusing on top-tier hospitals and high-potential provinces to maintain our leading market share position in 3L mCRC, and the contribution from the EMC indication that successfully broadened the addressable patient population for ELUNATE®. - SULANDA® revenue was
$27.0 million (2024:$49.0m ), which reflects competition from new NRDL entries. In response, we have transformed our marketing strategies which allowed us to maintain the leading position of SULANDA® in the NET TKI market and stabilize sales in the second half of 2025 (H2 up13% vs H1 2025). - ORPATHYS® revenue was
$18.6 million (2024:$24.5m ), impacted by strong competition in the METex14 skipping NSCLC setting. However, sales stabilized in the second half of 2025 as AstraZeneca continues its efforts to increase MET testing as the standard-of-care for late-stage NSCLC. - TAZVERIK® revenue was
$2.5 million (2024:$0.9m ) with increased sales in mainland China since July 2025 following its approval in March 2025. - Takeda upfront, regulatory milestones and R&D services revenue were
$51.6 million (2024:$67.0m ), due to less R&D and regulatory support services since FRUZAQLA® is now fully launched. - Other revenue of
$19.5 million (2024:$24.9m ), includes$8.5 million (2024:$13.9m ) cost reimbursement from partners, which decreased as trials advanced into later stage of development, and a regulatory milestone of$11.0 million from AstraZeneca following China NDA approval for SACHI.

Past Performance and Forward-Looking Statements
The performance and results of operations of the Group contained within this announcement are historical in nature, and past performance is no guarantee of future results of the Group. This announcement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by words like “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “pipeline,” “could,” “potential,” “first-in-class,” “best-in-class,” “designed to,” “objective,” “guidance,” “pursue,” or similar terms, or by express or implied discussions regarding potential drug candidates, potential indications for drug candidates or by discussions of strategy, plans, expectations or intentions. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the current beliefs and expectations of management regarding future events, and are subject to significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. There can be no guarantee that any of our drug candidates will be approved for sale in any market, that any approvals which have been obtained will continue to remain valid and effective in the future, or that the sales of products marketed or otherwise commercialized by HUTCHMED and/or its collaboration partners (collectively, “HUTCHMED’s Products”) will achieve any particular revenue or net income levels. In particular, management’s expectations could be affected by, among other things: unexpected regulatory actions or delays or government regulation generally; the uncertainties inherent in research and development, including the inability to meet our key study assumptions regarding enrollment rates, timing and availability of subjects meeting a study’s inclusion and exclusion criteria and funding requirements, changes to clinical protocols, unexpected adverse events or safety, quality or manufacturing issues; the delay or inability of a drug candidate to meet the primary or secondary endpoint of a study; the delay or inability of a drug candidate to obtain regulatory approval in different jurisdictions or the utilization, market acceptance and commercial success of HUTCHMED’s Products after obtaining regulatory approval; discovery, development and/or commercialization of competing products and drug candidates that may be superior to, or more cost effective than, HUTCHMED’s Products and drug candidates; the impact of studies (whether conducted by HUTCHMED or others and whether mandated or voluntary) or recommendations and guidelines from governmental authorities and other third parties on the commercial success of HUTCHMED’s Products and drug candidates in development; the ability of HUTCHMED to manufacture and manage supply chains, including various third party services, for multiple products and drug candidates; the availability and extent of reimbursement of HUTCHMED’s Products from third-party payers, including private payer healthcare and insurance programs and government insurance programs; the costs of developing, producing and selling HUTCHMED’s Products; the ability to obtain additional funding when needed; the ability to obtain and maintain protection of intellectual property for HUTCHMED’s Products and drug candidates; the ability of HUTCHMED to meet any of its financial projections or guidance and changes to the assumptions underlying those projections or guidance; the successful disposition of its non-core business; global trends toward health care cost containment, including ongoing pricing pressures; uncertainties regarding actual or potential legal proceedings, including, among others, actual or potential product liability litigation, litigation and investigations regarding sales and marketing practices, intellectual property disputes, and government investigations generally; and general economic and industry conditions, including uncertainties regarding the effects of the persistently weak economic and financial environment in many countries, uncertainties regarding future global exchange rates, uncertainties in global interest rates, and geopolitical relations, sanctions and tariffs.
