FOSTER CITY, Calif., Nov. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Apollomics Inc. (Nasdaq: APLM) (“Apollomics” or the “Company”), a late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company developing multiple oncology drug candidates to address difficult-to-treat and treatment-resistant cancers, today announced financial results for the first half of 2026 ended June 30, 2026.

• Tumor Inhibitor

• Vebreltinib (APL-101) – a highly specific, CNS-penetrant c-MET inhibitor for treating NSCLC, brain tumors, and other solid tumors with MET dysregulation. It also shows significant potential in combination regimens, particularly with EGFR inhibitors.

• Immuno-Oncology Product Candidates

• APL-501 (Anti-PD-1 antibody): APL-501 is an investigational, humanized, IgG4 monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to PD-1 on T lymphocytes and other immune cells. The China rights of APL-501 were out-licensed to Apollomics’ partner, Edding Genor Group Holdings Ltd., while Apollomics retains the global (ex-China) rights. Data from a Phase 1 study in advanced or relapsed/refractory solid tumors in Australia are currently being analyzed.

• APL-502 (benmelstobart, anti-PD-L1 antibody): APL-502 is a novel IgG1 humanized monoclonal antibody against PD-L1. The China rights of APL-502 were out-licensed to Apollomics’ partner, Chia Tai-Tianqing Pharmaceutical Holdings Co., Ltd. (CTTQ), while Apollomics retains the global (ex-China) rights.

• APL-502 (also known as TQB-2450 in China) has been approved by China’s NMPA for three distinct indications: extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, recurrent/metastatic endometrial cancer, and late-stage unresectable or metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Ongoing clinical trials include the following tumor types: NSCLC, esophageal cancer, ovarian cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, primary mediastinal large B cell lymphoma, and alveolar soft part sarcoma.

• Cash, cash equivalents, bank deposits and money market funds as of June 30, 2026, were $1.0 million, compared to $3.3 million as of December 31, 2025. In August 2026, the Company entered into definitive subscription agreements for a private placement transaction with certain accredited investors, for an aggregate gross consideration of approximately $10.0 million.

• Research and development (R&D) expenses were $2.0 million, including share-based compensation of less than $0.1 million, for the first half of 2026, compared to $4.6 million, including share-based compensation of $0.8 million, for the first half of 2025.

• General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $4.5 million, including share-based compensation of $1.0 million, for the first half of 2026, compared to $14.5 million, including share-based compensation of $2.5 million, for the first half of 2025.
