5 PD - (L)1 - targeted therapies, annualizing $50B+, have transformed oncology – with Keytruda now the best - selling drug in the world CONFIDENTIAL Notes: 1. 5 - year follow up demonstrated mOS of 22.0 vs 10.6 months. NSQ: Non - squamous. NSCLC: Non - small cell lung cancer. mOS : median overall survival.

6 Ivonescimab, a cooperative PD - 1 x VEGF bispecific, doubled progression - free survival vs. Keytruda in a P3 NSCLC trial CONFIDENTIAL Notes: HR: hazard ratio. PFS: progression - free survival. AE: adverse event. NSQ: Non - squamous SQ: Squamous. Akeso has licensed ivonescimab to Summit in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Middle East, and Japan. Akeso maintains rights in Asia (ex - Japan / Middle East) and in Oceania.

This suggests a differentiated profile driven by cooperativity - driven tissue targeting. ​ Ivonescimab is the first drug to demonstrate superiority ​ in PFS over pembrolizumab in a randomized Phase 3 ​ Ivonescimab’s novel MoA ​ raises the bar on efficacy and safety Squamous Non - squamous PD - L1 high ( TPS ≥50% ) PD - L1 low ( TPS 1 - 49% ) 0.48 0.54 0.46 0.54 HR 1 2 Time (months) Progression - free survival (%) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Ivonescimab Pembrolizumab 9 - mo: 40% 9 - mo: 56% Median follow - up: 8.67 mos Pembrolizumab Ivonescimab 5.82 11.14 mPFS , mos 0.51 PFS HR 38.5 50.0 ORR, % Dual blockade of PD - 1 and VEGF through a cooperative bispecific antibody has led to unprecedented clinical results , demonstrating superiority to pembrolizumab… and a $15B+ market cap for ivo’s ex - China sponsor, Summit Therapeutics .

7 CONFIDENTIAL CR - 001 Cooperative, tetravalent PD - 1 x VEGF bispecific antibody

8 Ivonescimab’s novel, cooperative MoA hypothesized to drive enhanced anti - tumor activity while maintaining tolerability CONFIDENTIAL Notes: AE: adverse event. TME: Tumor microenvironment Sources: 2023 Zhong (SITC Poster); Summit Therapeutics ​ Ivo’s cooperative binding blocks ​ PD - 1 / PD - L1 interactions and inhibits VEGF VEGF binding increases PD - 1 affinity by ~18x PD - 1 binding increases VEGF affinity by ~4x A B VEGF dimer PD - 1 PD - L1 Ivonescimab ​ VEGF drives tumor angiogenesis ​ and PD - L1 expression suppresses T cells T cell Tumor cell Dual blockade of PD - 1 and VEGF through a novel tetravalent bispecific format with cooperative binding effects has led to unprecedented clinical results in third party trials . x Cooperativity : VEGF binding to i vonescimab increases affinity to PD - 1 and vice versa , enhancing both T - cell activation and VEGF - signaling blockade . This helps explain the cross - trial outperformance of ivonescimab vs. an anti - PD - L1 + anti - VEGF combination. x Tumor targeting : PD - 1 arm concentrates VEGF inhibition in the TME, potentially sparing healthy tissue and reducing AEs.

9 CR - 001 is a highly potent PD - 1 x VEGF bsAb designed to recapitulate ivonescimab’s cooperative pharmacology CONFIDENTIAL Designed to match ivonescimab PK • Native FcRn binding to match distribution and elimination of ivonescimab Effector - null human IgG Fc • Equivalent to ivonescimab • ADCC carries additional AE risk Highly potent & stable scFvs • Designed to be the best possible anti - PD - 1 epitope / binding domain • Anti - PD - 1s have historically outperformed anti - PD - L1s in meta - analyses of solid tumor studies • Contains proprietary engineering to enable functional and stable scFvs Same design as ivonescimab • Pairs anti - VEGF IgG & anti - PD - 1 scFvs • Avoids risk of alternative, clinically unprecedented constructs (e.g., VEGF trap, anti - PD - L1 IgG, ADCC) Potential for reduced AEs • Cooperative binding increases anti - VEGF activity in TME , reducing AE risks in healthy tissue • Identical VEGF potency to preserve safety

10 CR - 001 replicates ivonescimab’s cooperative effect, with greater binding to and inhibition of PD - 1 signaling in presence of VEGF CONFIDENTIAL Notes: Ivonescimab generated internally based on published sequence. PD - 1 / PD - L1 signaling inhibition measured in RLU (relative light units), a measure of luminescence that increases with greater inhibition. PD - 1 binding measured in MFI (mean fluorescence intensity), a measure of fluorescence that in creases with binding and is measured via FACS. Sources: Internal data ​ CR - 001 lead, like ivonescimab, is more potent in ​ an NFAT reporter assay in the presence of VEGF … ​ … and also increases PD - 1 binding on ​ PD - 1+ Jurkat cells in the presence of VEGF . CR - 001 lead demonstrates same cooperative effect as ivonescimab across multiple assays.

11 Replicating ivonescimab’s tetravalent format and cooperativity, with stable scFvs, requires complex protein engineering CONFIDENTIAL Ivonescimab’s unique structure and geometry – and resulting cooperative function – is challenging to replicate ; alternative constructs risk not reproducing ivonescimab’s superior efficacy and safety in clinical practice. Standard mAbs can be improved with established protein engineering approaches … ​ … but ensuring cooperative effect, stability, and developability of tetravalent PD - (L)1 x VEGF bispecific antibody is more difficult CDRs improved via diversification and/or affinity maturation to maximize potency Fc engineering tunes ADCC, CDC, half - life , etc. IgG format bound to VEGF dimer required to daisy chain ; different potency may alter chaining kinetics and VEGF trap geometry does not work scFv format can require significant engineering to ensure stability Fc silencing helps reduce risk of AEs CR - 001 has novel composition of matter IP related to proprietary, stabilized scFvs Leading anti - PD - 1s are unstable and aggregate in scFv format, potentially hampering developability

14 Parallel clinical development paths offer potential for both first - in - class and lower risk opportunities for CR - 001 CONFIDENTIAL Focus on potential first - in - class opportunities and with potentially rapid path to market (i.e., efficient development strategy, anticipated likelihood of PFS and OS success ) • Numerous indications with clinically meaningful anti - PD - (L)1 +/ - VEGF efficacy and potential to combine with chemo / orthogonal MoAs . Plan to rapidly follow ivonescimab in indications where clinical validation vs. anti - PD - (L)1 is highly differentiating • High conviction that CR - 001 can replicate ivonescimab’s efficacy given similar construct and equivalent MoA . NSCLC TNBC TBD Based on ongoing Phase 3 trials POTENTIAL INDICATIONS CR - 001 1 2

15 CR - 001 Phase 1 data offer potential for early de - risking – a rarity for a solid tumor oncology program CONFIDENTIAL ILLUSTRATIVE Phase 3s (validated indications) Phase 2/3s (first - in - class opportunities) Phase 1 (solid tumor all - comers) CR - 001 IND • Key derisking preliminary data: x PK x Safety x Efficacy (e.g., ORR) YE25 / 1Q26 PoC Interim 2H26 • Higher confidence to fund and accelerate CR - 001 into P3s after P1 interim data, given replication of ivonescimab’s cooperative pharmacology High conviction in CR - 001’s clinical profile can be reached in ~9 - 12 months , offering potential for significant early value inflection . Phase 1 interim proof - of - concept data are a potentially significant value - generating event for CR - 001. • Preliminary data from early Phase 1 cohorts provides substantial validation of program because CR - 001 structural design and preclinical data are similar to ivonescimab . • Early Phase 1 data, as single agent and in combination with SoC, rapidly enables late - stage development in multiple solid tumor types, unlocking broad first - in - class and fast - follower opportunities . • CR - 001 is markedly differentiated from novel constructs, which may require significantly more patients’ worth of safety and efficacy data in tumor - specific expansion cohorts and/or Phase 2s to establish conviction before initiating Phase 3s.

16 CR - 001 preclinical data reproduces ivonescimab’s breakthrough pharmacology and is rapidly advancing to generate significant value CONFIDENTIAL Unprecedented third - party data validates PD - 1 x VEGF cooperativity Transformative MoA for $50B+ market CR - 001’s proprietary engineering is designed to replicate ivonescimab Built by the proven Paragon team CR - 001 is a highly potent PD - 1 x VEGF bsAb reproducing cooperative binding qualities critical to ivonescimab Paragon has a demonstrated track record discovering and developing best - in - class molecules Ivonescimab significantly improved PFS versus pembrolizumab in Phase 3 in 1L NSCLC – the first therapy to do so head - to - head Poised to transform NSCLC standard of care , with broad application across $50B+ anti - PD - (L)1 market
