Akeso License and Collaboration Agreement | Akeso License and Collaboration Agreement On December 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Akeso pursuant to which the Company is in-licensing its breakthrough bispecific antibody, ivonescimab. The License Agreement and transaction closed in January 2023 following customary waiting periods. Ivonescimab, known as AK112 in China and Australia, and also as SMT112 in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan, is a novel, potential first-in-class bispecific antibody intending to combine the benefits of immunotherapy via a blockade of PD-1 with the anti-angiogenesis benefits of an anti-VEGF into a single molecule. Ivonescimab was engineered to bring two well established oncology targeted mechanisms together. Ivonescimab is currently in clinical development and, pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, Summit will design and conduct the clinical trial activities to support regulatory filings in the Licensed Territory that Summit will submit. Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, Summit will have final decision making authority with respect to commercial strategy, pricing and reimbursement and other commercialization matters in the Licensed Territory. In connection with the License Agreement, the Company has also entered into a Supply Agreement with Akeso, pursuant to which Summit agrees to purchase a certain portion of drug substance for clinical and commercial supply. Summit is not assuming any liabilities (including contingent liabilities), acquiring any physical assets or trade names, or hiring or acquiring any employees from Akeso in connection with the License Agreement. Through the License Agreement, the Company obtained the rights to develop and commercialize SMT112 in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan (the “Licensed Territory”). In exchange for the rights obtained, an upfront payment of $500,000 was made to Akeso, of which $274,900 was paid in cash and, pursuant to the License Agreement and Issuance Agreement, Akeso elected to receive 10,000,000 shares of our common stock in lieu of $25,100 cash. The remaining $200,000 amount of the upfront payment was paid on March 6, 2023. The Company has accounted for the License Agreement to acquire the rights to develop and commercialize SMT112 as the acquisition of an asset. All of the consideration relates to SMT112 and technological feasibility of the asset has not yet been established since SMT112 is in clinical development. As such, the Company has expensed the consideration as in-process research and development upon closing of the transaction in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. In-process research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $520,915, which is comprised of the $474,900 paid in cash, the fair value of the 10,000,000 shares of common stock on the date of closing the transaction of $45,900, and $115 of direct transactions costs incurred. In addition to the payments already made to Akeso, under the License Agreement, there are additional potential milestone payments of up to $4,500,000, as Akeso will be eligible to receive regulatory milestones of up to $1,050,000 and commercial milestones of up to $3,450,000. In addition, Akeso will be eligible to receive low double-digit royalties on net sales.
