#WorldCancerResearchDay is September 24, a day to raise awareness about the importance of innovative research in the fight against cancer worldwide. At Affimed, our research is focused on harnessing the immense power of the innate immune system to combat cancer by targeting and activating NK cells and macrophages with our innate cell engagers (ICE®). Our ongoing research includes studying acimtamig (AFM13) and AFM28 for their potential in treating certain blood cancers and AFM24 which we are studying for non-small cell lung cancer.

Actualizing the untapped potential of the innate immune system
Info
Affimed N.V. (Nasdaq: AFMD) is a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company committed to giving patients back their innate ability to fight cancer by actualizing the untapped potential of the innate immune system. The company’s Innate Cell Engagers (ICE®), generated from its proprietary ROCK® platform, are bispecific antibodies, which target innate immune cells, e.g. natural killer (NK) cells and macrophages, to destroy tumor cells. Affimed’s ICE® enable a tumor-targeted approach to recognize and kill a range of hematologic and solid tumors with activity demonstrated as monotherapy and when given in combination with NK cells and other I-O therapeutics. Affimed has three active clinical programs focused on solid tumors and blood cancers. The lead candidate Acimtamig (AFM13) is in development for patients with CD30-positive lymphomas. Acimtamig combined with NK cells has demonstrated high objective response rates in heavily pretreated, relapsed / refractory (r/r) Hodkin lymphoma (HL) patients with a manageable safety profile in a clinical trial (AFM13-104). Affimed’s phase 2 study, LuminICE-203, is underway to investigate acimtamig in combination with AlloNK® (also known as AB-101), an off-the-shelf, allogeneic NK cell from Artiva Biotherapeutics, in patients with r/r HL with an exploratory arm planned in patients with r/r/ peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). AFM24 is in development for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-expressing solid tumors. Based on the data generated to date, the developmental focus of AFM24 is in combination with the anti-PD-L1 inhibitor atezolizumab in advanced stage EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). AFM28 is being developed for patients with CD123-expressing acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in need of new therapeutic options. A first-in-human Phase 1 clinical study is underway (AFM28-101) and development in combination with allogeneic NK cell therapy is being explored.

World Lymphoma Awareness Day, observed on September 15th each year during Blood Cancer Awareness Month, aims to increase global awareness of lymphoma. Lymphoma is a group of blood cancers affecting the lymphatic system and is the most common form of blood cancer worldwide with over 635,000 new cases and 270,000 deaths estimated in 2022*. World Lymphoma Awareness Day serves as a vital platform to raise awareness about lymphoma, educate the public on its signs and symptoms, and support ongoing research for better treatments. At Affimed, we are committed to harnessing the power of the innate immune system to combat cancer. Our research includes the development of innate cell engagers (ICE®) like acimtamig (AFM13), which is currently under investigation for its potential in treating certain CD30+ blood cancers. We are committed to advancing novel therapies for lymphoma, especially for patients who have limited treatment options. #BloodCancerAwarenessMonth #WhyWeFightCancer #InnateImmunity #AFMD #Immunotherapy #WorldLymphomiaDay * GLOBOCAN cancer statistics 2022: estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

"Congratulations to our colleagues for securing the first place in the yearly charity regatta “Rudern Gegen Krebs” (“Rowing Against Cancer”)! We are incredibly proud of their dedication and contribution to this wonderful event, hosted in front of the stunning backdrop of Heidelberg." This row is a yearly event where patients, medical professionals, and rowers of all skill levels come together to raise money and support medically supervised sports and exercise therapies for patients with cancer. It takes place in multiple locations throughout Germany in cooperation with local rowing clubs and oncological treatment facilities. The team at Affimed, some captured in the photos from the event, always have a great time supporting the row and helping raise money in support cancer patients. See you again next year! #ruderngegenkrebs #affimed #innateimmunity #cancertherapy #WhyWeFightCancer

August 1st is #WorldLungCancerDay – started in 2012 as an effort to raise awareness of lung cancer, one of the most common and deadly cancers across the world, and to educate people about its risks, prevention, and symptoms in order to help increase early detection. At Affimed, we are developing novel therapies for hard-to-treat cancers including advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) where patients too often have limited options. We are united in our shared vision of leveraging the innate immune system to create a future where cancer no longer derails the lives of patients and their loved ones. #AFM24 #InnateImmunity #ImmunoOncology #WhyWeFightCancer
