• Findings further demonstrate the effectiveness of Genentech’s approved medicines in advancing treatment standards for people with blood disorders 
• Data from innovative pipeline signals progress toward improved outcomes in hemophilia A, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma 

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. / Nov 03, 2025 / Business Wire / Genentech, a member of the Roche Group (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY), announced today that it will showcase 46 abstracts, including 12 oral presentations, from its industry-leading hematology portfolio at the 67^th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition, held December 6-9, 2025 in Orlando, Florida.

“The data we will present at this year’s ASH meeting underscore our commitment to driving innovation across hematology and reflect meaningful progress towards improved treatment of multiple blood disorders,” said Levi Garraway, M.D., Ph.D., chief medical officer and head of Global Product Development.

Key presentations include:

Hemophilia A

• Hemlibra^® (emicizumab-kxwh): New post-marketing data from the Beyond ABR study show that, in the first year after switching to Hemlibra prophylaxis from factor VIII prophylaxis, people with various levels of baseline joint impairment had low bleeding rates, associated with overall improvements in joint health, and a shift towards higher activity levels. These findings add to the wealth of clinical and real-world evidence in support of Hemlibra as it continues to redefine standards of care for people living with hemophilia A.
• NXT007: Positive Phase I/II results, including new data from a global study in people with hemophilia A with and without factor VIII inhibitors, suggest the potential of Genentech’s next-generation investigational bispecific antibody to normalize hemostasis. These data support the progression of NXT007 into Phase III clinical development planned for 2026, including a head-to-head study against Hemlibra.
• SPK-8011QQ: Pre-clinical data on Genentech’s next-generation investigational AAV gene therapy, show significantly enhanced hemostatic potency compared with SPK-8011 (dirloctocogene samoparvovec) in ex vivo and in vivo mouse models. Findings support the ongoing evaluation of SPK-8011QQ, furthering previous learnings on the safety and durability of SPK-8011, with Phase IIb study initiation planned for 2026.

Lymphoma

• Lunsumio^® (mosunetuzumab-axgb): Preliminary data from the U.S. extension arm of the Phase III CELESTIMO study investigating Lunsumio plus lenalidomide, in people with second-line or later (2L+) relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma, support its potential as an effective and well-tolerated outpatient treatment option.
• Lunsumio plus Polivy^® (polatuzumab vedotin-piiq): Long-term follow-up data from the Phase Ib/II GO40516 study demonstrate sustained improvements in objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival with this combination in people with 2L+ large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). Additionally, patient-reported outcomes from the Phase III SUNMO study show treatment with Lunsumio plus Polivy was associated with delayed deterioration in physical function and improvements in fatigue, pain, and emotional function, in people with transplant-ineligible R/R LBCL.
• Columvi^® (glofitamab-gxbm): Three-year follow-up and subgroup analyses from the Phase III STARGLO study show continued superior survival outcomes with Columvi in combination with gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx) for people with R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) compared with Rituxan^® (rituximab) and GemOx, including people with second-line DLBCL and primary refractory disease or early relapse.*

Multiple myeloma

• Cevostamab: Clinical and exploratory biomarker analysis from the Phase Ib CAMMA-1 study shows investigational cevostamab in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone induces high ORR, very good partial response or better rates, and durable remissions, in R/R multiple myeloma.
• First data from the Phase Ib CAMMA-3 study highlight that subcutaneous cevostamab monotherapy delivers deep and durable responses in people with late-line R/R multiple myeloma.
• These data support the progression of cevostamab in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone into Phase III clinical development for people with 2L+ R/R multiple myeloma, with study initiation planned for 2026.

Overview of key presentations featuring Genentech medicines

*Based on the STARGLO data, Columvi in combination with GemOx is approved in 49 countries for the treatment of R/R DLBCL including the EU, UK, Australia and Canada. On July 2, 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a Complete Response Letter for the supplemental Biologics License Application for Columvi in combination with GemOx for this indication.

About Hemlibra^® (emicizumab-kxwh)

Hemlibra is a bispecific factor IXa- and factor X-directed antibody. It is designed to bring together factor IXa and factor X, proteins required to activate the natural coagulation cascade and restore the blood clotting process for hemophilia A patients. Hemlibra is a prophylactic (preventative) treatment that can be administered by an injection of a ready-to-use solution under the skin (subcutaneously) once weekly, every two weeks or every four weeks. Hemlibra was created by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and is being co-developed globally by Chugai, Roche and Genentech.

Hemlibra U.S. Indication

Hemlibra is a prescription medicine used for routine prophylaxis to prevent or reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes in adults and children, ages newborn and older, with hemophilia A with or without factor VIII inhibitors.

Important Safety Information

What is the most important information to know about Hemlibra?

Hemlibra increases the potential for blood to clot. People who use activated prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC; Feiba^®) to treat breakthrough bleeds while taking Hemlibra may be at risk of serious side effects related to blood clots.

These serious side effects include:

• Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), a condition involving blood clots and injury to small blood vessels that may cause harm to one’s kidneys, brain, and other organs
• Blood clots (thrombotic events), which may form in blood vessels in the arm, leg, lung, or head

Patients should talk to their doctor about the signs and symptoms of these serious side effects, which can include

• Confusion
• Stomach, chest, or back pain
• Weakness
• Nausea or vomiting
• Swelling, pain, or redness
• Feeling sick or faint
• Decreased urination
• Swelling of arms and legs
• Yellowing of skin and eyes
• Eye pain, swelling, or trouble seeing
• Fast heart rate
• Numbness in your face
• Headache
• Shortness of breath
• Coughing up blood

If patients experience any of these symptoms during or after treatment with Hemlibra, they should get medical help right away.

Patients should carefully follow their healthcare provider’s instructions regarding when to use an on demand bypassing agent or factor VIII, and the dose and schedule to use for breakthrough bleed treatment. If aPCC (Feiba^®) is needed, patients should talk to their healthcare provider in case they feel they need more than 100 U/kg of aPCC (Feiba^®) total.

Patients’ bodies may make antibodies against Hemlibra, which may stop Hemlibra from working properly. Patients should contact their healthcare provider immediately if they notice that Hemlibra has stopped working for them (e.g., increase in bleeds).

The most common side effects of Hemlibra include: injection site reactions (redness, tenderness, warmth, or itching at the site of injection), headache, and joint pain. These are not all of the possible side effects of Hemlibra. Patients can speak with their healthcare provider for more information.

What else should patients know about Hemlibra?

Patients should see the detailed “Instructions for Use” that comes with Hemlibra for information on how to prepare and inject a dose of Hemlibra, and how to properly throw away (dispose of) used needles and syringes.

• Patients should stop taking their prophylactic bypassing therapy the day before they start Hemlibra
• Patients may continue taking their prophylactic factor VIII for the first week of Hemlibra

Hemlibra may interfere with laboratory tests that measure how well blood is clotting and create an inaccurate result. Patients should speak with their healthcare provider about how this may affect their care.

Medicines are sometimes prescribed for purposes other than those listed in a Medication Guide. Patients should only use Hemlibra for the condition it was prescribed. Patients should not give Hemlibra to other people, even if they have the same symptoms that they have. It may harm them.

Patients should tell their healthcare provider about all the medicines they take, including prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, or herbal supplements. Patients should keep a list of them to show their healthcare provider and pharmacist.

Before using Hemlibra, patients should tell their healthcare provider about all of their medical conditions, including if they are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, are breastfeeding, or plan to breastfeed.

Since Hemlibra was tested in males, there is no information on whether Hemlibra may impact an unborn baby or breast milk. Females who are able to become pregnant should use birth control during treatment.

Side effects may be reported to the FDA at (800) FDA-1088 or http://www.fda.gov/medwatch. Side effects may also be reported to Genentech at (888) 835-2555.

About Polivy^® (polatuzumab vedotin-piiq)

Polivy is a first-in-class anti-CD79b antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). The CD79b protein is expressed in the majority of B cells, an immune cell impacted in some types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), making it a promising target for the development of new therapies. Polivy binds to cancer cells such as those expressing CD79b and destroys these B cells through the delivery of an anti-cancer agent, which is thought to minimize the effects on normal cells. Polivy is being developed by Genentech using Pfizer ADC technology and is currently being investigated for the treatment of several types of NHL.

Polivy U.S. Indication

Polivy is a prescription medicine used with other medicines (a rituximab product, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone) as a first treatment for adults who have moderate to high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), not otherwise specified (NOS) or high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBL).

Polivy is a prescription medicine used with other medicines, bendamustine and a rituximab product, to treat DLBCL in adults who have progressed after at least 2 prior therapies.

About Venclexta^® (venetoclax)

Venclexta is a first-in-class targeted medicine designed to bind selectively and inhibit the B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) protein. In some blood cancers and other tumors, BCL-2 builds up and prevents cancer cells from dying or self-destructing, a process called apoptosis. Venclexta blocks the BCL-2 protein and works to help restore the process of apoptosis.

Venclexta is being developed by AbbVie and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group. It is jointly commercialized by the companies in the United States and commercialized by AbbVie outside of the United States. Together, the companies are committed to research with Venclexta, which is currently being studied in clinical trials across several types of blood cancers.

Venclexta^® (venetoclax) U.S. Indication

Venclexta is a prescription medicine used:

• to treat adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).
• in combination with azacitidine, or decitabine, or low-dose cytarabine to treat adults with newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who:
  • are 75 years of age or older, or
  • have other medical conditions that prevent the use of standard chemotherapy.

It is not known if Venclexta is safe and effective in children.

Important Safety Information

What is the most important information patients should know about Venclexta?

Venclexta can cause serious side effects, including:

Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). TLS is caused by the fast breakdown of cancer cells. TLS can cause kidney failure, the need for dialysis treatment, and may lead to death. The patient’s doctor will do tests to check their risk of getting TLS before they start taking Venclexta. The patient will receive other medicines before starting and during treatment with Venclexta to help reduce the risk of TLS.

The patient may also need to receive intravenous (IV) fluids into their vein. The patient’s doctor will do blood tests to check for TLS when the patient first starts treatment and during treatment with Venclexta. It is important for patients to keep appointments for blood tests. Patients should tell their doctor right away if they have any symptoms of TLS during treatment with Venclexta, including fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, confusion, shortness of breath, seizures, irregular heartbeat, dark or cloudy urine, unusual tiredness, or muscle or joint pain.

Patients should drink plenty of water during treatment with Venclexta to help reduce the risk of getting TLS.

Patients should drink 6 to 8 glasses (about 56 ounces total) of water each day, starting 2 days before the first dose on the day of the first dose of Venclexta, and each time a dose is increased.

The patient’s doctor may delay, decrease the dose, or stop treatment with Venclexta if the patient has side effects. When restarting Venclexta after stopping for 1 week or longer, the patient’s doctor may again check for the risk of TLS and change the patient’s dose.

What patients should not take Venclexta?

Certain medicines must not be taken when the patient first starts taking Venclexta and while the dose is being slowly increased because of the risk of increased TLS.

• Patients should tell their doctor about all the medicines they take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Venclexta and other medicines may affect each other causing serious side effects.
• Patients must not start new medicines during treatment with Venclexta without first talking with their doctor.

Before taking Venclexta, patients must tell their doctor about all of their medical conditions, including if they:

• Have kidney or liver problems.
• Have problems with body salts or electrolytes, such as potassium, phosphorus, or calcium.
• Have a history of high uric acid levels in the blood or gout.
• Are scheduled to receive a vaccine. Patients should not receive a “live vaccine” before, during, or after treatment with Venclexta, until the patient’s doctor tells them it is okay. If the patient is not sure about the type of immunization or vaccine, the patient should ask their doctor. These vaccines may not be safe or may not work as well during treatment with Venclexta.
• Are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. Venclexta may harm an unborn baby. If the patient is able to become pregnant, the patient’s doctor should do a pregnancy test before the patient starts treatment with Venclexta, and the patient should use effective birth control during treatment and for at least 30 days after the last dose of Venclexta. If the patient becomes pregnant or thinks they are pregnant, the patient should tell their doctor right away.
