Regulatory News:

Innate Pharma SA (Euronext Paris: IPH; Nasdaq: IPHA) ("Innate” or the "Company”) today announced its updated strategy for company growth. This comprehensive plan is anchored in three key pillars designed to drive sustainable growth, foster innovation, and deliver transformative therapies to patients worldwide.

"Our updated strategy underscores Innate Pharma’s unwavering dedication to innovation, collaboration, and delivering transformative therapies for patients worldwide," said Jonathan Dickinson, Chief Executive Officer of Innate Pharma. "With a focus on our ANKET^® platform and ADC programs, we are poised to redefine the landscape of immunotherapy, addressing unmet needs in oncology and autoimmune diseases. This roadmap reflects our steadfast commitment to advancing science, strengthening partnerships, and maximizing value for patients and shareholders alike as we look toward a brighter future in immuno-oncology."

Three Pillars of Growth

• Drive innovation with first-in-class ANKET^® Platform: A new era in NK cell therapeutics is at the heart of Innate Pharma’s strategy, based around its validated, proprietary Antibody-based NK Cell Engager Therapeutics (ANKET^®) platform. This cutting-edge technology with anticipated applications in hematologic malignancies, solid tumors, and autoimmune diseases leverages the advantages of harnessing NK cell effector functions and can create proliferation of NK cells. By advancing its clinical pipeline, Innate aims to exploit therapeutic possibilities in oncology and autoimmune diseases. IPH6501, Innate’s proprietary ANKET^® is currently being investigated in a Phase 1/2 study in patients with CD20-expressing non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.

• Accelerate development of differentiated Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs): Innate Pharma is advancing its ADC programs to develop differentiated and highly targeted treatments that combine the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the potency of cytotoxic drugs. IPH4502, Innate’s lead ADC, a novel and differentiated topoisomerase I inhibitor ADC conjugated to exatecan targeting Nectin-4, is being investigated in a Phase 1 trial in patients with advanced solid tumors.

• Advance current late-stage assets through partnerships: Partnerships will continue to play a critical role in the Company’s strategy, for broader impact with Innate’s established antibody assets, including lacutamab and monalizumab. Innate is actively seeking a partner to progress lacutamab for patients with advanced forms of T cell lymphomas. Monalizumab, currently in a Phase 3 trial PACIFIC-9 led by AstraZeneca in non-small cell lung cancer, will see readouts by end of 2026. By entrusting these promising therapies to strategic partners, Innate ensures their ongoing development and potential commercialization, maximizing their therapeutic potential and reach.

With this multi-faceted strategy, Innate Pharma believes it is positioned to accelerate its growth trajectory and reinforce its leadership in the immuno-oncology space. The Company’s robust scientific expertise, strategic collaborations, and focus on patient outcomes create a strong foundation for success.
