Positive Topline Results from Part 2 of Phase 3 ABTECT 44-Week Maintenance Trial

On June 29, 2026, Abivax SA (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) announced positive topline results from Part 2 of its Phase 3 ABTECT 44-week maintenance trial evaluating obefazimod, the Company’s potential first-in-class oral miR-124 enhancer, in moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis (“UC”). Part 2 of the Phase 3 maintenance trial enrolled patients who either did not achieve clinical response following induction treatment or who experienced disease relapse during the re-randomized maintenance trial (Part 1), expanding both the efficacy and safety results in a more refractory patient population than the registrational maintenance cohort. The additional safety results generated through Part 2 expand the Phase 3 maintenance database and provide important context for interpreting the safety findings reported following the Maintenance Part 1 readout.

Among patients who failed to achieve clinical response after 8 weeks of induction, continued treatment with obefazimod resulted in clinically meaningful rates of clinical, endoscopic, and combined histologic-endoscopic endpoints at Week 44. Patients treated continuously with 50 mg obefazimod demonstrated the strongest outcomes across all endpoints, including clinical remission (37.2%), clinical response (61.5%), endoscopic improvement (48.0%), Histologic-Endoscopic Mucosal Improvement (“HEMI”) (44.6%), and endoscopic remission (34.5%). These findings suggest that a clinically meaningful proportion of patients who do not initially respond may still derive substantial benefit from longer treatment exposure.


Part 2 Induction Non-Responders – Exploratory Endpoints
	25 mg (N=81)	50 mg (N=148)
Clinical Remission	23.5%	37.2%
Clinical Response	50.6%	61.5%
Endoscopic Improvement	28.4%	48.0%
HEMI	23.5%	44.6%
Endoscopic Remission	22.2%	34.5%

Among patients who relapsed during Part 1 of the maintenance trial, re-treatment with 50 mg obefazimod resulted in meaningful rates of clinical remission, clinical response, endoscopic improvement, HEMI and endoscopic remission by Week 44. Patients who achieved clinical response with obefazimod during induction and relapsed after being re-randomized to placebo in Part 1 of the maintenance trial were treated with open-label 50 mg obefazimod and achieved clinical response and remission rates of 69.7% and 45.0%, respectively, while patients who relapsed on 25 mg and escalated to 50 mg achieved clinical response and clinical remission rates of 66.7% and 45.5%, respectively. These findings demonstrate the potential for obefazimod to re-establish disease control following relapse and support a flexible maintenance treatment strategy.


Part 1 Relapsers – Exploratory Endpoints
	Placebo g 50 mg (N=109)	25 mg g 50 mg (N=33)
	50 mg	50 mg
Clinical Remission	45.0%	45.5%
Clinical Response	69.7%	66.7%
Endoscopic Improvement	54.1%	45.5%
HEMI	47.7%	39.4%
Endoscopic Remission	32.1%	24.2%

In Part 2, four total non-melanoma skin cancers (“NMSC”) events were reported, two in the 25 mg arm and two in the 50 mg arm which all occurred in patients with established NMSC risk factors including advanced age, thiopurine use, prior skin cancer history and failure of multiple prior advanced therapies. There were also two non-NMSC malignancies reported in the 50 mg arm, both deemed unrelated to obefazimod by the study investigators. The results are summarized below.


Summary Safety Events, n (%)	Obefazimod 25 mg N=186	Obefazimod 50 mg N=447*
Any treatment-emergent adverse event (“TEAE”)	132 (71.0%)	307 (68.7%)
TEAE leading to study drug discontinuation	21 (11.3%)	27 (6.0%)
Serious TEAE	16 (8.6%)	23 (5.1%)
Death (Non-Treatment Related)⁽¹⁾	1 (0.5%)	0
Pregnancy⁽²⁾	1 (0.5%)	1 (0.2%)
Serious/severe (Grade ≥3) infections and opportunistic infections⁽³⁾	5 (2.7%)	5 (1.1%)
Malignancies (excluding NMSC)⁽⁴⁾	0	2 (0.4%)
NMSC⁽⁵⁾	2 (1.1%)	2 (0.4%)
Acute pancreatitis	1 (0.5%)	1 (0.2%)
Cardiac abnormalities suggestive of cardiac fibrosis	0	0

(1)	One death occurred in the 25 mg arm and was assessed by the investigator as unrelated to obefazimod. The suspected cause was pulmonary embolism in a 65+ patient with multiple pre-existing thromboembolic risk factors, including prior pulmonary embolism, and recent prolonged immobility.

(2)	Both pregnancies are currently ongoing.

(3)

Serious/severe (grade ≥3) infections and opportunistic infections: 25 mg = Appendicitis, Bartonellosis, Cytomegalovirus gastrointestinal infection, Peritonsillar abscess, Sepsis; 50 mg (induction non-responder) = Clostridium difficile infection, pilonidal disease, Urethritis gonococcal; 50 mg Open Label (Part 1 relapsers = Appendicitis (Part 1 50 mg), Septic arthritis staphylococcal (Part 1 placebo).

(4)	Part 1 relapsers previous on placebo: One case of Myoproliferative Neoplasm and one Prostate Cancer.

(5)	Two cases of Basal Cell Carcinoma (25 mg \| 50 mg) and two cases of Squamous Cell Carcinoma (25 mg \| 50 mg).

*	Includes combined induction non-responders on 50 mg in Part 2 (N=251) and Part 1 relapsers (N=196) who entered Part 2.

The post-hoc analyses below are presented progressively, from the combined Phase 2 and Phase 3 UC programs to the Phase 3 maintenance dataset (Part 1 and Part 2), and then to the Part 2 maintenance dataset, to illustrate how increasing cumulative patient-years (“PYs”) strengthens the overall safety assessment. Because NMSCs and malignancies excluding NMSCs are uncommon events, incidence-rate estimates become more precise as cumulative exposure increases. The Company believes the Phase 3 maintenance data should be interpreted using the totality of the exposure-adjusted evidence, together with patient characteristics and representative published UC epidemiologic reference

ranges. The results in the tables below demonstrate that the exposure-adjusted incidence rate (“EAIR”) in the combined all active (25 mg and 50 mg) treatment arms for both NMSCs and malignancies excluding NMSCs are within the UC background reference range based on published UC studies.


Malignancies (Excluding NMSC) – EAIR Analysis

The overall safety results observed in Part 2 were consistent with those previously observed in the broader obefazimod clinical development program. No new safety pattern emerged with the additional cumulative exposure provided by Part 2.

Regulatory Path Forward

The Company believes the foregoing Part 2 results expand the integrated clinical dataset supporting the planned New Drug Application (“NDA”) for obefazimod in UC. The Company believes it remains on track to submit its NDA to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the fourth quarter of 2026.

•

Fourth Quarter 2026 – Planned NDA submission for obefazimod in UC

Words such as “expect,” “intend,” “potential” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements concerning the potential therapeutic benefit of obefazimod and obefazimod’s potential to redefine treatment expectations, the expected timing for completion of the Phase 2b ENHANCE-CD induction trial of obefazimod and the availability and timing of results therefrom, the timing of regulatory filings including an NDA submission for obefazimod in UC, the timing for reporting Abivax’s half year 2026 financial results, and other statements that are not historical fact. Although the Registrant’s management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, investors are cautioned that forward-looking information and statements are subject to various risks, contingencies and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the control of the Registrant, that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements.
