## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Molecular Partners Holds Presentations at ASCO and SNMMI 2026 on DLL3-Targeting Radio-DARPin MP0712, Now Dosing Patients in Phase 1**

ZURICH-SCHLIEREN, Switzerland and CONCORD, Mass., May 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- **Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR** Molecular Partners AG (SIX: MOLN; NASDAQ: MOLN), a clinical-stage biotech company developing a novel class of custom-built protein drugs known as DARPin therapeutics ("Molecular Partners" or the "Company"), today announced it will hold trial-in-progress poster presentations on the Phase 1/2a study of its lead targeted alpha radiotherapy candidate MP0712 at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting and the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) Annual Meeting. ASCO takes place May 29-June 2 in Chicago, and SNMMI May 30-June 2 in Los Angeles.

MP0712 is a <sup>212</sup>Pb-based Radio-DARPin Therapy (RDT) candidate targeting the tumor-associated protein delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) for the treatment of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and other neuroendocrine cancers. DLL3 is a highly relevant target for radiopharmaceutical therapy due to its abundant expression in tumors of patients with SCLC (present in >85% of tumors) and other aggressive neuroendocrine tumors, while expression in healthy tissues is low. MP0712 is being co-developed with Molecular Partners' strategic partner Orano Med, a pioneer in targeted alpha therapy.

The US multicenter Phase 1/2a study of MP0712 (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT07278479) is actively recruiting patients with dosing ongoing in the first cohort. The Phase 1/2a study objectives are to assess safety and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose for MP0712. Molecular Partners expects to share initial clinical data from this study in 2026.

Molecular Partners and the team of Dr. Mike Sathekge at the Nuclear Medicine Research Institute (NuMeRI) in South Africa presented first patient imaging and dosimetry data on MP0712 at the 8th Theranostics World Congress (TWC) in January 2026.

The data, generated with MP0712 carrying the diagnostic isotope <sup>203</sup>Pb as part of a Named Patient Access Program under the legal framework for compassionate care in South Africa, showed specific uptake in tumor lesions and are supportive of the clinical development plans of MP0712 carrying the therapeutic isotope <sup>212</sup>Pb.

**About Radio-DARPins**

Molecular Partners develops targeted alpha therapeutics leveraging its Radio-DARPins as isotope-agnostic vectors with the potential to unlock a broad range of cancer targets and indications. Molecular Partners designs its Radio-DARPin candidates matching disease and target biology with vector and isotope properties to address unmet medical needs. Building on the DARPins' unique properties, Molecular Partners has developed a proprietary Radio-DARPin platform for precise delivery of potent radioactive payloads to tumor lesions. Molecular Partners' Radio-DARPins address historic limitations of radioligand therapy, such as kidney accumulation and suboptimal tumor uptake, through optimized half-life extension and surface engineering approaches, while preserving the advantages of the small protein format.
