Compugen Ltd.

On November 29, 2022, Bayer AG (formerly, Bayer Pharma AG) (“Bayer”) notified Compugen Ltd. (the “Company”) that it has resolved to terminate, effective as of February 27, 2023, the parties’ research and development collaboration and license agreement, previously effective as of August 5, 2013. 

Pursuant to the agreement, bapotulimab, an antibody targeting Compugen-discovered immune checkpoint regulator CGEN-15001T/ILDR2, was evaluated by Bayer in a Phase 1 clinical trial. Following the effective date of the termination, Bayer will retain the right to continue to provide patients with bapotulimab to the extent required.

The Company plans to execute its right to receive an exclusive license under Bayer’s intellectual property as required to allow it to continue the development and commercialization of bapotulimab, to the extent it will choose to do so.

The information contained in this Report on Form 6-K is hereby incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-3, File No. 333-240183.
