    HARMONi-3 Phase III enrollment completed by end of Q2 2026 as previously guided. Source
  • Sep 15, 2026
    HARMONi-GI1 Phase III trial achieved statistically significant OS superiority for ivonescimab + chemotherapy vs durvalumab + chemotherapy as first-line treatment in advanced biliary tract cancer at pre-specified interim analysis. Detailed results and safety data presented at WCLC 2026. Source
  • Nov 7, 2025
    HARMONi longer-term OS analysis completed in September 2025, showing improved nominal p-value (0.0332) with OS HR 0.78 (95% CI: 0.62–0.98), now statistically significant. Results support BLA submission intent for ivonescimab + chemotherapy in EGFRm NSCLC post-TKI progression. Source
  • May 30, 2025
    HARMONi topline results announced: primary PFS endpoint met with statistically significant benefit (HR 0.52, p<0.00001). Secondary OS endpoint showed positive trend (HR 0.79, p=0.057) without statistical significance. Consistent results with single-region HARMONi-A study. Source
  • Apr 25, 2025
    The NMPA approved ivonescimab as monotherapy for first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC with positive PD-L1 expression on April 25, 2025, based on HARMONi-2 trial results showing an interim OS hazard ratio of 0.777. Source
  • Apr 23, 2025
    The HARMONi-6 Phase III trial met its primary endpoint of progression-free survival at a prespecified interim analysis, demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement for ivonescimab plus chemotherapy versus tislelizumab plus chemotherapy in first-line squamous NSCLC, with no new safety signals identified.
