INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT

Entry into Material Definitive Agreement

This report on Form 6-K (the “Report”) contains information regarding the entry into a material definitive agreement by Kazia Therapeutics Limited (the “Company”). On April 10, 2026, the Company entered into a License and Commercialisation Agreement (the “Agreement”) with QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute (“QIMR Berghofer”), pursuant to which the Company obtained an exclusive, worldwide license to research, develop, manufacture, and commercialize products based on QIMR Berghofer’s proprietary SETDB1-targeted epigenetic platform.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company will pay QIMR Berghofer an upfront license fee of $1,390,000 within 15 business days of execution. The Agreement also provides for the Company to pay QIMR Berghofer a percentage of commercialization revenue received by the Company or its affiliates, with the specific percentage varying based on the stage of development at which any product is out-licensed to a third party. The Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize at least one product under the licensed intellectual property.

About the SETDB1 Platform

SETDB1 is a histone methyltransferase that plays a key role in gene silencing. In cancer, overexpression of SETDB1 is associated with suppression of immune signaling pathways and resistance to immunotherapy. The licensed platform includes proprietary intellectual property directed to the inhibition of SETDB1 as a therapeutic strategy to restore immune function in tumors and enhance the efficacy of cancer treatments. The Company believes this platform complements its existing oncology pipeline by targeting cancer resistance mechanisms at the chromatin level.
