Insights

Biotech equity analyst

FDA alignment on a single Phase 3 trial de-risks Chemomab’s PSC path while losses narrow on lower R&D spend.

Chemomab secured FDA agreement on a nebokitug Phase 3 registration trial in primary sclerosing cholangitis after positive Phase 2 SPRING data. The trial will use a composite of clinical events linked to disease progression, which the company believes strengthens the chance that biomarker gains translate into meaningful outcomes.

Financially, 2025 showed tighter spending: total operating expenses dropped to 9,567 thousand from 14,739 thousand, and the net loss narrowed to 8,995 thousand from 13,945 thousand. R&D fell significantly to 5,833 thousand, reflecting a transition from Phase 2 to Phase 3 planning.

At year-end, assets stood at 13,812 thousand with shareholders’ equity of 12,334 thousand, indicating a still-lean but positive equity position for an early-stage biotech. Future company filings should clarify Phase 3 timelines, partnering progress and funding plans needed to execute the registration study.

Chemomab Therapeutics Announces Year End and

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results and Provides a Corporate Update

─Completed Successful FDA End-of-Phase 2 Meeting Following Positive Nebokitug Phase 2

SPRING Trial Results in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC)─

─Achieved Alignment with FDA on Clear and Efficient Pathway to Potential Approval for the Treatment of PSC─

─Multiple Scientific Presentations and Publications Raised Awareness of Nebokitug’s Potential to

Become the First Disease Modifying Treatment for PSC and Its Relevance to Other

Fibro-Inflammatory Conditions─

─Discussions with Strategic Partners Continue to Advance─

TEL AVIV, Israel, March 19, 2026 -- Chemomab Therapeutics Ltd. (Nasdaq: CMMB), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing innovative therapeutics for fibro-inflammatory diseases with high unmet need, today announced financial and operating results for the full year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, and provided a corporate update.

“2025 was a critical year for Chemomab and our nebokitug program,” said Adi Mor, PhD, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Chemomab. “Our Phase 2 SPRING trial data, viewed by many experts as the strongest to date in PSC, set the stage for our positive FDA End-of-Phase 2 meeting, which resulted in alignment on a clear pathway to potential regulatory approval based on a single Phase 3 trial. This pivotal trial will assess a primary composite endpoint comprised of well-characterized clinical events that are associated with disease progression in PSC. We believe that using a clinical event-driven endpoint helps de-risk the Phase 3 program, as key publications have linked the PSC-related biomarker improvements observed in nebokitug-treated patients in the SPRING trial with reductions in clinical events.”

Dr. Mor added, “Our discussions with potential strategic partners continue to advance as we progress activities required for the timely initiation of the Phase 3 trial in PSC. In parallel, we are evaluating additional therapeutic indications where nebokitug has generated robust preclinical efficacy signals, providing a strong mechanistic and translational rationale for future clinical development.”

2025 and Recent Highlights:

• On December 2, 2025, Chemomab announced that the results of its Phase 2 SPRING trial were published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology. The study showed that nebokitug was generally safe and well tolerated and that patients treated with nebokitug had numerical improvements in a range of biomarkers for inflammation and fibrosis, particularly at the 20 mg/kg dose and in the pre-specified subgroup of patients with moderate/advanced fibrosis. The authors concluded that these promising data support further evaluation of nebokitug for the treatment of PSC in a Phase 3 clinical trial.

• On November 6, 2025, Chemomab reported that data from the Phase 2 SPRING trial assessing nebokitug for the treatment of PSC was featured in three poster presentations at the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) The Liver Meeting® 2025. All three were designated by conference organizers as “posters of distinction.” Data presented from the SPRING trial open label extension showed the continued and consistent positive effects of nebokitug on key inflammatory and fibrotic biomarkers when administered to patients with PSC for up to 48 weeks, confirming its positive safety profile and further reinforcing its disease-modifying potential. Two other posters presented new clinical data that provided additional insights into the macrophage-related mechanism of action of nebokitug, a first-in-class antibody that inhibits the soluble protein CCL24, a key driver of disease processes in fibro-inflammatory diseases such as PSC. These results further confirm that nebokitug may halt or slow disease progression and improve clinical outcomes — the primary objectives of the proposed nebokitug Phase 3 PSC study.

• On August 14, 2025, Chemomab reported that it would change the ratio of its American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") to its ordinary shares (the "ADS Ratio"), from the then current ADS Ratio of one ADS to 20 ordinary shares to a new ADS Ratio of one ADS to 80 ordinary shares, effective on August 26, 2025. This ratio adjustment essentially served as a one-for-four reverse ADS split for Chemomab ADS holders.

• On June 30, 2025, Chemomab reported that results of the Phase 2 SPRING trial assessing nebokitug for the treatment of PSC were presented in an oral session at BSG Live’25, the annual scientific meeting of the British Society for Gastroenterology. The data were presented by Douglas Thorburn, MD, Professor of Hepatology within the Institute for Liver and Digestive Health at UCL and Principal Investigator of the trial. Post-conference, it was announced that Professor Thorburn’s talk on the SPRING trial results was awarded the prize for the Best Oral Presentation in its respective category.

• On June 11, 2025, Chemomab obtained confirmation from FDA on two development milestones for the nebokitug Phase 3 program. These included agreement with the FDA on the Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) strategy proposed by Chemomab and its contract manufacturing partner and agreement that additional animal toxicology testing routinely required by FDA may be conducted in parallel with the nebokitug Phase 3 trial and submitted as part of the planned Biologics Licensing Application. This represents a favorable outcome for Chemomab and supports the timely advancement of the Phase 3 program.

• On June 3, 2025, Chemomab reported that two new patents covering the use of nebokitug for the treatment of liver diseases, including primary sclerosing cholangitis, were issued in China and Russia. These new patents further expand the protections provided by nebokitug’s composition of matter and methods and use patents issued in the U.S., Europe, Japan and additional key territories.

• On May 5, 2025, Chemomab announced that data from the company’s Phase 2 SPRING trial of nebokitug in PSC were presented in an oral Distinguished Abstract Plenary session at Digestive Disease Week® (DDW 2025). The DDW 2025 session presented data from the double-blind, placebo-controlled 15-week treatment period and the 48-week open label extension portion of the study.

• On April 28, 2025, Chemomab reported two posters were presented at EASL 2025, the Annual Congress of the European Association for the Study of the Liver. In one study, proteomic analyses of 3,000 circulating proteins in patient samples from the SPRING trial showed that nebokitug-treated patients exhibited significant and dose-dependent changes in proteins playing a key role in fibrosis, immune cell recruitment and inflammation. These data highlight the broad impact of nebokitug’s ability to neutralize CCL24, including reductions in a wide array of inflammatory and fibrotic biomarkers in treated patients. The second study analyzed the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of nebokitug and CCL24 using data from the SPRING trial. These analyses indicated effective antibody-target engagement and regression analyses revealed that increasing patient exposure to nebokitug was associated with decreasing levels of PSC disease biomarkers.

• On April 15, 2025, Chemomab announced new executive medical and clinical appointments. David M. Weiner, MD, rejoined Chemomab as Interim Chief Medical Officer, bringing extensive biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry R&D, drug development and strategic experience, and Jack Lawler, who oversaw the conduct of Chemomab’s successful Phase 2 SPRING Trial in PSC, was promoted to the position of Chief Development Officer.

• On February 19, 2025, Chemomab reported that the International Nonproprietary Names (INN) program of the World Health Organization had assigned the INN designation nebokitug to the company’s lead product candidate CM-101.

• On February 19, 2025, Chemomab announced the successful completion of its End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and alignment with FDA on the design of a Phase 3 registration study for nebokitug for the treatment of PSC. The design provides clarity on a streamlined path to full regulatory approval based on a single pivotal trial. The primary endpoint measures time-to-first clinical event and encompasses multiple clinical events associated with disease progression. Key publications have shown that the reductions in PSC biomarkers seen in the nebokitug Phase 2 SPRING trial are associated with reductions in clinical events, increasing  confidence in the relevance of this approach for the nebokitug Phase 3 program.

• On January 13, 2025, a peer-reviewed publication in the journal Cells further confirmed the key role of the soluble protein CCL24 in driving the fibro-inflammatory pathologies underlying PSC, systemic sclerosis and other fibrotic diseases. The review describes the pivotal function CCL24 plays in initiating and advancing fibrotic processes, highlighting its impact on fibrotic, immune and vascular pathways. It also presented preclinical and clinical evidence supporting the therapeutic potential of blocking CCL24 with agents like nebokitug in diseases that involve excessive inflammation and fibrosis, such as PSC and systemic sclerosis.

Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights:

• Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits were $10.4 million as of December 31, 2025 compared to $14.3 million as of December 31, 2024. The current cash runway is expected to take the Company through the end of the first quarter of 2027.
