BioInvent's TNFR2 Antibody BI-1808 Shows Strong Activity and Immune Activation as Single Agent and in Combination with KEYTRUDA(R) (pembrolizumab) in Advanced CTCL (EHA 2026)

40% objective response rate ( ORR) as single agent in heavily pre - treated patients with advanced Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Durable responses observed, including a complete response lasting over two years and ongoing 50% ORR in combination with KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) Targeting TNFR2 drove robust immune activation, with depletion of regulatory T cells and increased CD8+ T cell infiltration in skin lesions Early immune - related skin reactions - "flares"- correlated with biological activity and immune remodeling Favorable safety profile with mostly mild to moderate treatment - related adverse events LUND, SE / ACCESS Newswire / May 12, 2026 / BioInvent International AB ("BioInvent") (Nasdaq Stockholm:BINV)(STO:BINV), a leader in the discovery of novel immune-modulatory antibodies, today announced that new clinical data from its ongoing Phase 2a trial evaluating BI-1808, its novel anti-TNFR2 monoclonal antibody, in patients with advanced CTCL will be presented at the upcoming European Hematology Association (EHA) 2026 Congress in Stockholm, Sweden. The data underscore BI-1808's potential as both a single agent and combination therapy in this difficult-to-treat cancer with limited therapeutic options.
