• Commercial momentum accelerated: proprietary medicines totaled $632 million (up 54%), with Epkinly at $468 million (+67%) and Tivdak $164 million (+26%), and Epkinly now approved in >65 countries as Genmab expands direct commercialization in Europe, Japan and the U.S.
• The Merus acquisition added petosemtamab, giving Genmab three late‑stage programs (Epkinly, Rina‑S, petosemtamab) with five breakthrough designations that management says have multi‑billion dollar potential.
• The EPCORE DLBCL‑1 Phase III of Epkinly showed a PFS benefit but missed statistical significance for overall survival, and Genmab will discuss next steps with regulators while asserting other Phase III trials remain viable as confirmatory evidence.
• 2026 is framed as a catalyst year with up to six potentially registrational readouts (including frontline and second‑line Epkinly combos, a Rina‑S readout in PROC, and one or both petosemtamab Phase IIIs), which could set the stage for multiple 2027 launches.
