ROCKVILLE, MD, January 8, 2024 – I-Mab (NASDAQ: IMAB) (the “Company”), a U.S.-based, global biotech company, focused on the development of precision immuno-oncology agents for the treatment of cancer, today announced the Company has been informed that Wei Fu, the Chairman of the Board, intends to purchase up to $2,000,000 of the Company’s ADSs in open market transactions. As the planned purchases are to be executed by Wei Fu via his controlled entity, I-Mab cannot guarantee the number of ADSs to be purchased or the time frame in which the ADSs will be bought in the open market.
Wei Fu, Chairman of the Board of I-Mab and Chief Executive Officer of CBC Group, said: “The Board of Directors and the Company’s senior leadership team successfully executed on the corporate strategy for 2024, and the recent portfolio prioritization aligns with our long-term goal to increase shareholder value.”
I-Mab recently announced a portfolio prioritization positioning givastomig, a Claudin 18.2 (“CLDN18.2”) x 4-1BB bispecific antibody, as its lead clinical program. Data is expected in the early second half of 2025 in a dose escalation study of givastomig in combination with nivolumab plus chemotherapy. Additionally, a 40-patient dose expansion study is now underway, with data expected in early 2026. The Company’s current cash runway extends into 2027.
