BioLineRx Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update

May 27 2026 12:00 BST

- Announced first patient dosed in Phase 1/2a clinical trial of GLIX1 for treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) -

- Announced new GLIX1 data demonstrating potent anti-tumor effect in GBM across multiple in-vivo studies, including a temozolomide (TMZ)-resistant patient-derived xenograft model -

- Management to host conference call today, May 27, at 8:30 am EDT -

TEL AVIV, Israel , May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BioLineRx Ltd. (NASDAQ: BLRX) (TASE: BLRX), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pursuing life-changing therapies in oncology and rare diseases, today reported its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided a corporate update.

"Since our last quarterly update, we achieved a significant milestone for our company and for the GLIX1 development program with the dosing of the first patient in our Phase 1/2a clinical trial of GLIX1 in glioblastoma," stated Philip Serlin, Chief Executive Officer of BioLineRx. "We are also very encouraged by compelling new pre-clinical data showing that GLIX1 demonstrated robust dose-dependent tumor-growth inhibition and survival benefit in orthotopic cell-derived xenograft (CDX) GBM models. Furthermore, in a newly completed subcutaneous TMZ-resistant patient-derived xenograft (PDX) GBM model, GLIX1 demonstrated a robust anti-tumor effect while no effect was observed with TMZ, highlighting the potential to address the very high unmet need in GBM."

"In the coming days, we look forward to engaging with the broader oncology community at this year's ASCO meeting with two abstracts featuring GLIX1. The abstracts highlight its novel mechanism of action and provide strong rationale for the development of GLIX1 in GBM as well as in other cancers. They also highlight that in safety studies in animals GLIX1 was safe up to the highest feasible doses tested, supporting the combination with other anti-cancer agents. Furthermore, the abstracts highlight the compelling mechanistic rationale for combining GLIX1 with PARP inhibitors supported by synergistic effect in cell lines across diverse cancers including from tumor types typically less responsive to PARP inhibition."

Financial Updates

With $17.4 million on its balance sheet as of March 31, 2026, BioLineRx is maintaining its cash runway guidance into the first half of 2027.

Development Updates
GLIX1

Phase 1/2a clinical trial of GLIX1 in glioblastoma and other cancers initiated in March 2026.
- The first patient was dosed at NYU Langone Health under the supervision of Dr. Alexandra Miller, Chief of Neuro-Oncology & Co-Director of Brain and Spine Tumor Center, Perlmutter Cancer Center.
- Two additional leading cancer centers are participating in the study: Northwestern University, led by Dr. Roger Stupp and Dr. Ditte Primdahl; and Moffit Cancer Center, led by Dr. Patrick Grogan. Additional sites may be added to the study at a later date.
- The Phase 1 part of the trial is expected to recruit up to 30 patients with recurrent and progressive GBM and other high-grade gliomas. The objective is to establish a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or a recommended dose based on safety, PK/PD and preliminary efficacy.
- The Phase 2a expansion part of the trial is planned to include additional indications, including newly diagnosed GBM, as well as select cancers, with GLIX1 as monotherapy or in combination with standard of care (including in combination with PARP inhibitors). These cohorts are expected to identify preliminary efficacy, PD assessments and dose optimization data, serving as the basis for a rapid and effective advanced clinical development plan.
Announced new GLIX1 data demonstrating potent anti-tumor effect in GBM across multiple in-vivo studies, including a temozolomide (TMZ)-resistant patient-derived xenograft model
Announced two abstracts on GLIX1 that were selected for publication during the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, which is scheduled for May 29-June 2, in Chicago, IL.
Pre-clinical activities in support of clinical development for GLIX1 in additional cancer indications, including in combination with PARP inhibitors, are ongoing.

Motixafortide
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (mPDAC)

Enrollment is continuing in the CheMo4METPANC Phase 2b clinical trial, which is being led by Columbia University, and supported by both Regeneron and BioLineRx. The trial is evaluating motixafortide in combination with the PD-1 inhibitor cemiplimab and standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel).
- A prespecified interim/futility analysis is planned when 40% of progression-free survival (PFS) events are observed, which the Company continues to anticipate will occur in 2026.

APHEXDA Performance Update

APHEXDA sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $2.7 million, which provided royalty revenues to the company of $0.5 million.

Financial Results for the Quarter ended March 31, 2026

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $0.5 million, an increase of $0.2 million, compared to revenues of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in revenues from 2025 to 2026 reflects an increase in royalties paid by Ayrmid from the commercialization of APHEXDA.
Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $0.1 million, compared to immaterial cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The cost of revenues reflects sub-license fees on royalties paid by Ayrmid from the commercialization of APHEXDA.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $2.5 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 55.8%, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase resulted primarily from expenses related to the new GLIX1 project.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $0.9 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 13.3%, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in legal expenses, as well as a decrease in a number of other general and administrative expenses.
Net non-operating income amounted to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to net non-operating income of $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Non-operating income for the periods primarily relates to non-cash fair-value adjustments of warrant liabilities, as a result of changes in the Company's share price, offset by warrant offering expenses.
Net financial expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were immaterial compared to net financial expenses of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net financial expenses for the periods primarily relate to interest paid on loans, partially offset by investment income earned on bank deposits.
Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was $2.6 million, compared to net income of $5.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term bank deposits of $17.4 million.
