**Watertown, Mass. (January 13, 2026) –** Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KYMR), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company advancing a new class of oral small molecule degrader medicines for immunological diseases, today announced its anticipated 2026 preclinical and clinical milestones across its industry leading oral immunology pipeline.

"Kymera enters 2026 from a position of exceptional strength, driven by significant progress in the clinic and the consistent execution of our strategy," said Nello Mainolfi, PhD, Founder, President and CEO, Kymera Therapeutics. "Across our programs, we delivered upon and, in many cases, exceeded expectations in 2025, best exemplified by the first-in-industry STAT6 data in healthy volunteers and AD patients with our novel oral degrader, KT-621. We have built a powerful engine for innovation, paired with the scientific expertise and strong execution required to translate novel ideas into first-in-class medicines that address the limitations of today's immunology treatments. Our growing portfolio of oral programs reflects our ability to develop medicines with the potential to combine biologics-like efficacy and safety profiles with the improved convenience and patient access of oral drugs."

Dr. Mainolfi continued, "With multiple clinical readouts ahead, an early pipeline of undisclosed first-in-class programs, and an exceptionally strong cash balance, we have the foundation to shape the future of immunology. By reimagining how many common immuno-inflammatory diseases are treated, we aim to expand the reach of advanced therapies and deliver oral medicines that fundamentally can change the standard of care for patients."

Additional details on Kymera's pipeline and progress will be presented today at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.

**STAT6 Degrader Program** 

KT-621 is an investigational, first-in-class, once daily, oral degrader of STAT6, the specific transcription factor responsible for IL-4/IL-13 signaling and the central driver of Type 2 inflammation, and currently in Phase 2 clinical testing. KT-621, the first STAT6-directed drug to enter clinical evaluation, has the potential to transform treatment paradigms for more than 140 million patients around the world, including children and adults, suffering from Type 2 diseases such as atopic dermatitis (AD), asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), prurigo nodularis (PN), and bullous pemphigoid (BP), among others.

<u>Recent KT-621 Updates</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In December 2025, the Company reported positive results from the KT-621 BroADen Phase 1b clinical trial in moderate to severe AD patients. After 28 days of daily dosing, KT-621 demonstrated deep STAT6 degradation in blood and skin, robust reductions in disease-relevant Type 2
inflammatory biomarkers in blood, skin and lungs, and meaningful improvements in clinical endpoints and patient-reported outcomes on signs and symptoms in atopic dermatitis as well as comorbid asthma and allergic rhinitis, with a favorable safety
and tolerability profile. The impact on biomarkers and clinical endpoints was in line or numerically exceeded data reported from dupilumab studies after 4 weeks of treatment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FDA Fast Track designation was granted to KT-621 in December 2025 for the
treatment of moderate to severe AD.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Dosing commenced in November 2025 for the KT-621 BROADEN2 Phase 2b trial,
a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of three doses of KT-621 in approximately 200 patients with moderate to severe AD
over 16 weeks. BROADEN2 was recently expanded to include adolescents (ages 12-18) in addition to adults. The primary endpoint is the percent change from baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score
at week 16. Secondary endpoints will evaluate a range of additional safety, efficacy, and quality of life measures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In January 2026, the Company initiated the BREADTH Phase 2b clinical trial, a global, randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of three doses of KT-621 in approximately 264 adult patients with moderate to severe eosinophilic asthma over 12 weeks.
The primary endpoint is the percent change from baseline in pre-bronchodilator of forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1). Secondary endpoints will evaluate a range of additional safety, efficacy, and
quality of life measures.

<u>Key Upcoming KT-621 Milestones:</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Complete enrollment of the BROADEN2 Phase 2b AD trial in 2026, with data expected to be reported by mid-2027.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Commence dosing in the BREADTH Phase 2b asthma trial in the first quarter of 2026, with data expected to be
reported in late-2027.

**IRF5 Degrader Program** 

KT-579 is an investigational, first-in-class, oral degrader of IRF5, a genetically validated transcription factor and master regulator of immunity. KT-579 has the potential to selectively block inflammation and restore immune regulation by inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines, Type I IFN, and autoantibody production while sparing normal cell function. KT-579 has the potential to be the first novel mechanism with broad utility in diseases where effective and well tolerated oral therapies are needed, such as lupus, Sjögren's, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), among others.

<u>Recent KT-579 Updates</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company has completed IND-enabling studies for the program. In
preclinical studies, KT-579 degraded IRF5 across multiple preclinical species and in all disease-relevant tissues. In preclinical models of lupus and RA, KT-579 was
equal or more efficacious than small molecule inhibitors and biologics currently marketed or in the clinic. In preclinical safety studies, KT-579 did not show any adverse effects of any type at all doses and
concentrations tested.

<u>Key Upcoming KT-579 Milestones:</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Initiate the first-in-human Phase
1 healthy volunteer trial in the first quarter of 2026, with data expected to be reported in the second half of 2026.

**Partnered Programs** 

• KT-485/SAR447971, a selective, potent, oral IRAK4 degrader, is being
advanced in collaboration with Sanofi for immuno-inflammatory diseases, with a Phase 1 clinical trial expected to initiate in 2026.

• Preclinical activities are ongoing under an exclusive option and license agreement with Gilead Sciences to
advance the Company's oral CDK2 molecular glue program for the potential treatment of breast cancer and other solid tumors. Upon exercise of Gilead's option, which would result in an option exercise payment to Kymera, Gilead would assume
all responsibility to develop, manufacture and commercialize all products resulting from the collaboration.

**Research** 

Leveraging its unique target selection strategy, proven small molecule discovery capabilities, and deep development expertise, Kymera is building an industry leading portfolio of innovative oral immunology medicines addressing high value undrugged targets for areas of significant patient need.

Key Upcoming Milestones:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company intends to advance at least one new development candidate towards IND for a first-in-class, oral immunology program in 2026.
