Mendus AB Interim Report July – September 2026

Transforming immunotherapy for myeloid blood cancers
Growing evidence from completed and ongoing trials indicates that vididencel stimulates the immune system in a unique way, leading to broad tumor-directed immune responses and improved immune competence. This may be the key to resolving the main therapeutic challenges in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In AML, the DIVA trial was initiated as planned, expanding the evaluation of vididencel into patients receiving less-intensive first-line therapy. Together with the ongoing CADENCE study, DIVA is designed to position vididencel as a post-remission immunotherapy across the first-line AML treatment landscape. Initial data from CADENCE demonstrated immune activation and improved immune competence in line with observations from the ADVANCE II trial, further supporting vididencel’s immunological effects. In CML, Mendus reported a positive review from the independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) for the first stage of the VITAL-CML trial. The DSMB identified no safety or tolerability concerns, supporting continued enrollment and clinical development. This milestone also enables progression toward the planned VITAL-TFR2 study, which aims to increase the likelihood of durable treatment-free remission (TFR) in patients who have previously relapsed following an attempt at TFR. We strengthened our executive leadership team through the appointment of Hans Preusting as Chief Operating Officer, reinforcing our operational and corporate development capabilities. With multiple upcoming clinical milestones expected to further validate the use of vididencel in myeloid blood cancers, we look forward to updating our stakeholders on our progress as we pursue our mission to transform immunotherapy for myeloid blood cancers.
