Join hands with Yantai Lan Nacheng to jointly develop RDC drugs

Heplatinum's proprietary Harbour Mice platform can directly produce all-human monoclonal antibodies in the form of H2L2 and HCaB, which have lower immunogenicity, excellent tissue penetration ability, and high specificity and stability, improving the efficacy of RDC drugs and reducing the toxic side effects of drugs.

2H25 and Platinum have reached a number of overseas licensing agreements, including with global MNCs such as BMS and Pfizer

1) On December 17, '25, the company and BMS reached a long-term global strategic cooperation agreement to jointly develop next-generation polychemotherapy. As compensation, and Platinum will receive a down payment of 90 million US dollars. If BMS chooses to advance all potential projects, the company will receive a development and commercial milestone payment of up to US$1,035 million.

2) On November 19, '25, Nona Biotech, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, signed a non-exclusive licensing agreement with Pfizer to advance the discovery of preclinical antibodies for various potential diseases. Pfizer will receive the right to use the HCaB platform globally. In return, Nona Biotech will receive a down payment and milestone payments based on regulatory, clinical, and commercialization milestones.

3) On November 24, '25, the company and AstraZeneca announced the further deepening of the scope of cooperation, expanding the scope of cooperation to ADC and TCE drugs.

Risk warning: Overseas licensing progress falls short of expectations, clinical data falls short of expectations; risk of worsening competitive landscape; progress of cooperation with AstraZeneca is blocked; risk of failure in research and development of the same target pharmaceutical industry within the industry.
