Martin Olin, Chief Executive Officer of BerGenBio, commented: "Earlier this month, we provided an update on the Company's strategy. BerGenBio's mission remains unchanged, and we believe that the announced focus provides an optimal path to unlock the potential of AXL inhibition as a transformative treatment modality for severe diseases.

By focusing the development of our lead asset bemcentinib to two key areas, STK11 mutated (STK11m) 1st line non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and COVID-19, we believe we have defined the path to efficiently advance BerGenBio's clinical and commercial potential. Both indications represent significant unmet medical needs and our defined plans for each of these indications provides a strong foundation for bringing new drug to market with the aim of achieving better outcomes for patients and the generation of significant value for our shareholders.

With a focused strategy and rightsized organization, I believe we are well positioned to unlock significant potential value related to the two indications selected and define the path to market."
