Overview:Apogee Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company advancing novel biologics with potential for

differentiated efficacy and dosing in the largest I&I markets, including for the treatment of AD, asthma, EoE, COPD and other

I&I indications. Apogee’s antibody programs are designed to overcome limitations of existing therapies by targeting well-

established mechanisms of action and incorporating advanced antibody engineering to optimize half-life and other properties.

Zumilokibart (APG777), the company’s most advanced program, is being initially developed for the treatment of AD, which is

seeking to achieve best-in-class efficacy and dosing through monotherapies and combinations of its novel antibodies.
