The dataset is focused on patients treated with anzu-cel at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), including longer follow-up and further characterization of the durability and systemic nature of the observed clinical responses. The data will be presented on Monday, June 1, 2026, by Diwakar Davar, M.D., University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Hillman Cancer Center, Pennsylvania, USA during the Oral Abstract Session – Melanoma/Skin Cancers (Abstract ID 9508). The slides are available in the ‘<a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=HICNCUVqo2ts9mpH3BeHAnJ4FD2LLsh80gQqN5vcuIq3diIYtXoKu-mZb0y4yAkQ5iWzbI5rl76PmJypT4xlnanY13oaRCxIsSM7GN35TGu-BXxf_Whtod2c2Rgw0eMJlHyB1772LLJUJVm8sLTNKQ==" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Events &amp; Presentations’">Events &amp; Presentations’</a> section of the Investor &amp; Media section of the Company’s website. “What excites us about anzu-cel is the strength of the clinical activity we are seeing in advanced melanoma that is further reinforced by the novel insights into the durability of responses and the systemic nature of anti-tumor activity observed across metastatic disease sites,” said Cedrik Britten, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Immatics. “These findings continue to highlight the potential of anzu-cel to make a meaningful impact on the lives of patients with advanced melanoma. Through the ongoing SUPRAME Phase 3 trial, we are working to bring anzu-cel to more patients in urgent need of effective treatment options.” Oral Presentation Summary – Anzu-cel Phase 1b Trial Patient population: Heavily pretreated patient population with metastatic melanoma <ul type="disc"><li style="text-align:justify;">As of September 24, 2025, 33 heavily pretreated patients with metastatic (stage IV) melanoma received a one-time infusion of anzu-cel at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D, 1 - 10x109 TCR T cells) in the Phase 1b dose expansion. </li><li style="text-align:justify;">The treated patient population consisted of cutaneous melanoma (n=14), uveal melanoma (n=16), mucosal melanoma (n=2) and melanoma of unknown primary (n=1). </li><li style="text-align:justify;">All patients with cutaneous melanoma, mucosal melanoma and melanoma of unknown primary had metastatic stage IV disease including lesions in liver, brain and/or lung. All patients with uveal melanoma had metastatic stage IV disease with liver and/or extrahepatic metastases. </li><li style="text-align:justify;">Patients had a median of two prior lines of systemic treatment. The subgroup of patients with cutaneous melanoma (n=14) had a median of 2.5 lines of prior systemic treatments, including a median of two prior lines of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Of these, 64% (9/14) received a combination of ipilimumab and nivolumab and 29% (4/14) received a combination of nivolumab and relatlimab prior to anzu-cel infusion.</li></ul> Safety: Treatment with anzu-cel continued to show predictable and manageable tolerability <ul type="disc"><li style="text-align:justify;">Anzu-cel has maintained a manageable tolerability profile, which was consistent across patients with different melanoma subtypes. </li><li style="text-align:justify;">The most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events were anticipated cytopenias associated with lymphodepletion.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Expected and manageable cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was mostly Grades 1 and 2, which is consistent with the mechanism of action. No patients experienced long-term CRS. </li><li style="text-align:justify;">Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) occurred infrequently, was manageable and mostly mild (Grades 1 and 2). </li></ul> Anti-tumor activity and durability: Rapid, deep and durable anti-tumor activity of anzu-cel PRAME cell therapy, including durable responses up to &gt;3 years <table align="center" style="border-collapse: collapse; width:900px; border-collapse:collapse ;"><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; "> </td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">All melanoma1 (n=33)</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">Cutaneous melanoma (n=14)</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">Uveal melanoma1 (n=16)</td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; "> </td><td style="width:12.77%;;vertical-align: top ; "> </td><td style="width:12.4%;;vertical-align: top ; "> </td><td style="width:12.77%;;vertical-align: top ; "> </td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; ">cORR</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">56% (18/32)</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">50% (7/14)</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">67% (10/15)</td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; ">ORR</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">64% (21/33)</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">57% (8/14)</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">69% (11/16)</td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; ">DCR</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">91% (30/33)</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">93% (13/14)</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">88% (14/16)</td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; ">mDOR (range) / mFU [mo]</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">14.6 (4.2, 38.2+) / 18.7</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">17.9 (4.2, 38.2+) / 18.7</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">11.0 (4.4, 31.6) / Not defined</td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; ">mPFS (range) / mFU [mo]</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">6.1 (1.4, 39.6+) / 20.0</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">6.0 (1.4, 39.6+) / 20.0</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">8.5 (1.4, 32.9) / 10.4</td></tr><tr><td style="width:12.06%;;vertical-align: top ; ">mOS (range) / mFU [mo]  </td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">16.2 (2.4, 39.6+) / 17.3</td><td style="width:12.4%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">13.9 (2.4, 39.6+) / 20.0</td><td style="width:12.77%;;text-align: center ; vertical-align: middle; vertical-align: top ; ">Not reached (4.5, 34.2) / 14.3</td></tr></table> 1 cORR excludes one patient with uveal melanoma who left study (withdrew consent) with ongoing unconfirmed PR.

BL, baseline; BOR, best overall response; (c)CR, (confirmed) complete response; (c)PR, (confirmed) partial response; PD, progressive disease; RECIST, Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors; SD, stable disease. Anzu-cel induced systemic anti-tumor activity across multiple metastatic sites, including difficult-to-treat metastases, such as liver, lung, lymph node, abdomen/peritoneum, skin and others. Even patients who had a best overall response of progressive disease (PD) according to RECIST 1.1 (n=3) experienced shrinkage of individual lesions. Progressive disease was frequently the result of new lesions, progression of non-target lesions, or selective outgrowths of individual lesions, while many target lesions remained controlled, indicating continued control of baseline disease. Responses occurred rapidly (median time to BOR: 1.4 months) and were durable across multiple metastatic sites, including target and non-target lesions. These findings support the continued development of anzu-cel in advanced melanoma. Immatics’ ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial, SUPRAME, is evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of anzu-cel PRAME TCR T-cell therapy as a monotherapy vs. investigator's choice in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma who have received prior treatment with a PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor. In parallel, a Phase 2 cohort in metastatic uveal melanoma is ongoing and intended to support a potential label expansion for anzu-cel following expected initial approval in cutaneous melanoma. About PRAME PRAME is a target expressed in more than 50 cancers. Immatics is the global leader in precision targeting of PRAME and has the broadest PRAME franchise with the most PRAME indications and modalities. The Immatics PRAME franchise currently includes three product candidates, two therapeutic modalities and three combination therapies that target PRAME: anzu-cel (anzutresgene autoleucel, IMA203) PRAME cell therapy, IMA203CD8 PRAME cell therapy, IMA402 PRAME bispecific as monotherapy, in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors, in combination with IMA401 MAGEA4/8 bispecific as well as anzu-cel in combination with Moderna’s PRAME mRNA designed to enhance cell therapy. About Anzu-cel PRAME Cell Therapy Anzu-cel (anzutresgene autoleucel; IMA203) is a PRAME-directed TCR T-cell therapy engineered to recognize an intracellular PRAME-derived peptide presented by HLA-A*02:01 on the cell surface and initiate a potent and specific anti-tumor response. Anzu-cel PRAME cell therapy is currently being evaluated in a registration-enabling randomized controlled Phase 3 trial, “SUPRAME,” in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma who have disease progression on or after treatment with at least one checkpoint inhibitor. In parallel, the Phase 1/2 clinical trial is ongoing with a focus on uveal melanoma. About Immatics Immatics is committed to making a meaningful impact on the lives of patients with cancer. We are the global leader in precision targeting of PRAME, a target expressed in more than 50 cancers. Our cutting-edge science and robust clinical pipeline form the broadest PRAME franchise with the most PRAME indications and modalities, spanning TCR T-cell therapies and TCR bispecifics.
