“We are incredibly proud of our partnership with Akeso and their accomplishment with HARMONi-2.”

Dr. Maky Zanganeh, Chief Executive Officer and President of Summit, stated, “HARMONi-2 clearly demonstrates that ivonescimab has the potential to be the next generation in PD-1 directed immunotherapy, and potentially make a significant difference in the lives of patients with lung cancer and prospectively other tumors.

“We want to again congratulate Akeso for this incredible result and their work to advance the patient-friendly standards of care today and well into the future. We look forward to initiating HARMONi-7 and sharing additional details about our expanded clinical development plan in early 2025.”
