SUZHOU, China, June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ImmVira Group ("ImmVira") today announced
that preliminary Phase IIa clinical data for MVR-T3011, its lead oncolytic immunotherapy
candidate, was presented at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)
Annual Meeting. As of the data cut-off on January 31, 2026, the optimized dose of
MVR-T3011 achieved a 100% complete response rate (CRR) in BCG-unresponsive carcinoma
in situ (CIS) and a durable 90% recurrence-free survival (RFS) in papillary (Ta/
T1) tumors^([1]).

While intravesical instillation of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) remains the standard
of care for high-risk NMIBC-representing 75% of all newly diagnosed bladder cancer
cases, a global BCG shortage and high rates of non-response leave a significant 
patient population without effective options. MVR-T3011 was developed with the goal
of delivering potent local and systemic anti-tumor immunity directly within the 
bladder, offering a potential organ-preserving treatment option for this high-need
population.

The ongoing trial enrolled 46 patients in total with pathologically confirmed BCG-
unresponsive high-risk NMIBC. Patients received intravesical MVR-T3011 at one of
two dose levels:

 ◦ Lower-dose group (2×10^(9) PFU): Induction course followed by maintenance dosing
   over two years (n=25).
 ◦ Higher-dose group (1×10^(10) PFU): Induction course followed by maintenance dosing
   over two years (n=21).

The results demonstrate that MVR-T3011 achieved meaningful clinical efficacy and
a favorable safety profile across both carcinoma in situ (CIS) and papillary (Ta/
T1) disease settings：

 ◦ In the CIS cohort, the higher-dose 1×10^(10) PFU regimen achieved a 100% complete
   response rate (CRR) at 3 months, 6 months, and 9 months, as well as at any assessed
   timepoint— a marked step up from the lower-dose 2×10^(9 )PFU cohort, which achieved
   a 66.7% CR rate at any timepoint (with timepoint-specific CRRs of 55.6% at 3 
   months and 75.0% at 6 months). The 12-month CRR for the 1×10^(10) PFU cohort 
   has not yet been reached, with follow-up ongoing.
 ◦ In the papillary (Ta/T1) cohort, the 2×10^(9) PFU dose delivered a durable 12-
   month recurrence-free survival (RFS) of 74.0%, an already strong outcome; at 
   the higher 1×10^(10) PFU dose, 9-month RFS reached 90.0%, with longer-duration
   follow-up ongoing.

Across all 46 patients treated, MVR-T3011 demonstrated a manageable safety profile
consistent with prior observations. Importantly, the higher-dose 1×10^(10) PFU cohort
showed a safety profile consistent with the lower-dose 2×10^(9) PFU cohort, with
no Grade 4 or 5 TEAEs reported across either dose level, or no deaths attributable
to treatment.

"The presentation of these Phase IIa results at ASCO 2026 marks a meaningful milestone
for ImmVira and for the broader NMIBC community," said Dr. Grace Zhou, Chairwoman
and CEO of ImmVira. "MVR-T3011 has demonstrated great therapeutic potential through
both direct anti-tumor activity in CIS and immune suppression in papillary (Ta/T1)
disease. This represents a synergy of direct oncolysis and immune activation, further
enhanced by the integrated effects of exogenous IL-12 and PD-1 antibody expressions
within tumor cells. We are committed to rapidly advancing our clinical program to
reach broader bladder cancer patient populations and provide meaningful treatment
alternatives for those in need.

[1] Due to the small sample size and the early, interim nature of the data, the observed CRR and RFS are subject to statistical uncertainty and are inherently susceptible to change as patient enrollment continues and follow-up matures. These preliminary results should not be construed as an indication of the final outcomes of the current study, nor should they be regarded as predictive of results that may be achieved in a future confirmatory phase III clinical trial or in connection with any regulatory review or approval.

**About MVR-T3011**

MVR-T3011, represents a breakthrough in HSV-1-based oncolytic immunotherapy. Its
proprietary "3-in-1" design unites a replication-competent, tumor-lytic HSV-1 backbone
with anti-PD-(L)1 antibody and IL-12, enabling it simultaneously to lyse tumor cells
and stimulate innate and adaptive immunity. MVR-T3011 has demonstrated its adaptability
and feasibility across multiple routes of administration including intratumoral,
intracavitary and intravenous administrations.

**About ImmVira**

ImmVira is a clinical-stage biotechnology company that is powered by proprietary
biological engineering technology, and is dedicated to the discovery, development,
manufacture and commercialization of novel oncolytic immunotherapies and engineered
exosome therapies. We have strategically designed, self-discovered, and built a 
risk-balanced product portfolio that comprised two oncolytic immunotherapy candidates
for solid tumors and five engineered exosome assets poised for clinical application
or direct commercialization. Driven by our vision to become a global leader in the
full spectrum of bladder cancer treatment development and unlock the therapeutical
potential of oncolytic immunotherapy in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC),
we have adopted a rationalized, adaptive approach to advance oncolytic immunotherapy
candidates with high clinical potential globally. In parallel, leveraging our deep
expertise in biological engineering, we have pioneered development of engineered
exosome candidates targeting chronic, hard-to-treat diseases as well as age-related
conditions. These selected engineered exosome assets are being accelerated through
differentiated regulatory pathways to enable expedited commercialization and generate
sustainable cash flows that will fuel our broader drug development efforts.
