ImmunoGen Reports Recent Progress and Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Oct. 29, 2021

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 29, 2021--ImmunoGen Inc. (Nasdaq: IMGN), a leader in the expanding field of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for the treatment of cancer, today reviewed recent progress in the business and reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

"We look forward to announcing top-line data from our pivotal SORAYA trial this quarter, including data on the primary endpoint of overall response rate and key secondary endpoint of duration of response. With positive data, we will move quickly to complete the BLA, with the goal of submitting the filing in the first quarter of 2022," said Mark Enyedy, ImmunoGen's President and Chief Executive Officer. "In addition to SORAYA, we continue to advance a broad program to establish mirvetuximab as the standard of care for patients with FR-positive ovarian cancer. Our confirmatory MIRASOL trial is enrolling at over 160 sites in 18 countries in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, and we have initiated the PICCOLO trial, which could support label expansion in recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer. Beyond mirvetuximab monotherapy, the first patients have been enrolled in the large investigator-sponsored studies evaluating mirvetuximab combined with carboplatin in both the neoadjuvant and recurrent platinum-sensitive settings to support our objective of making mirvetuximab the combination agent of choice in ovarian cancer, and we look forward to sharing our label-enabling combination strategy early next year."

Enyedy continued, "In addition, our IMGN632, IMGC936, and IMGN151 programs are advancing as planned. We anticipate presenting data on IMGN632 in AML at ASH in December, have escalated dosing in multiple solid tumors with our ADAM-9 targeting ADC, IMGC936, and expect to file the IND for IMGN151, our next-generation FR-targeting ADC, by year-end. As we close out 2021, we remain focused on execution and look forward to transforming ImmunoGen into a fully integrated oncology company with the potential for commercial launch next year."

RECENT PROGRESS

* Further enrolled patients in the confirmatory MIRASOL study for mirvetuximab. * Initiated PICCOLO, a single-arm study of mirvetuximab monotherapy in high folate receptor alpha (FR) recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer. * Enrolled the first patients in the investigator-sponsored trials of mirvetuximab plus carboplatin in a single-arm study in the neoadjuvant setting and a randomized study in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer. * Advanced accrual in the pivotal 801 Phase 2 study, now known as CADENZA, of IMGN632 in frontline and relapsed/refractory (R/R) blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). * Continued patient enrollment in the 802 Phase 1b/2 study of IMGN632 in combination with Vidaza(r) (azacitidine) and Venclexta(r) (venetoclax) in R/R acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and as a monotherapy in minimal residual disease positive (MRD+) AML. * Escalated dosing in the Phase 1 study of IMGC936 in multiple solid tumor types. * Progressed activities to support an investigational new drug (IND) application for IMGN151. * Appointed Helen M. Thackray, MD, to the Board of Directors.

ANTICIPATED UPCOMING EVENTS

* Release top-line data from the pivotal SORAYA study this quarter, with the goal of submitting the biologics license application (BLA) in the first quarter of 2022 to support potential accelerated approval in 2022. * Present initial AML combination data for IMGN632 at the 2021 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting in December. * Submit the IND application for IMGN151 by the end of 2021. * Complete dose-escalation in the Phase 1 study evaluating IMGC936, with initial data anticipated in 2022. * Generate top-line data for the confirmatory MIRASOL study in the third quarter of 2022.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 were $9.2 million, compared with $18.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. This decrease was driven by a reduction in non-cash royalty revenue due to the completion of the first tranche of payments under the 2015 transaction covering the sale of Kadcyla(r) royalties. Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 also included recognition of an anticipated $2.5 million partner development milestone fee.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were $43.4 million, compared with $34.9 million for the same quarter in 2020. Research and development expenses rose to $33.1 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared with $24.7 million for the third quarter of 2020, driven by increases in clinical trial expenses, personnel and temporary staffing costs, and third-party service fees in support of commercial readiness. General and administrative expenses were essentially flat at $10.3 million and $10.2 million for the third quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $37.3 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $22.4 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020. Weighted average shares outstanding increased to 204.8 million for the 2021 period from 174.5 million in the prior year.

ImmunoGen had $245.8 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021, compared with $293.9 million as of December 31, 2020, and had $2.1 million of convertible debt outstanding as of December 31, 2020. There was no convertible debt outstanding as of September 30, 2021. Cash used in operations was $123.5 million for the first nine months of 2021, compared with cash used in operations of $87.2 million for the same period in 2020. Capital expenditures were $(1.1) million for the first nine months of 2021, compared with net proceeds from the sale of equipment of $0.6 million for the first nine months of 2020.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, the Company sold 2.2 million shares of its common stock through its At-the-Market (ATM) facility, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $13 million. In August 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to an investor a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,434,782 shares of the Company's common stock for a nominal value, generating additional gross proceeds of approximately $30 million.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

ImmunoGen has updated its financial guidance for 2021 and now expects:

* revenues between $65 million and $75 million; * operating expenses between $190 million and $200 million; and * cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2021 to be between $190 million and $200 million.

ImmunoGen expects that its current cash will fund operations into the fourth quarter of 2022.
