Job description

Senior Manager, Talent Acquisition (contract)

About Summit

Ivonescimab, known as SMT112, is a novel, potential first-in-class investigational bispecific antibody combining immunotherapy via PD-1 blockade with anti-angiogenesis effects by blocking VEGF. It exhibits unique cooperative binding with higher affinity when both targets are present.

Summit has initiated clinical development of Ivonescimab in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with three active Phase III trials:

HARMONi: Evaluates Ivonescimab with chemotherapy versus placebo plus chemotherapy in EGFR-mutated NSCLC post-3rd gen EGFR TKI treatment.

HARMONi-3: Compares Ivonescimab with chemotherapy versus pembrolizumab with chemotherapy in first-line metastatic NSCLC.

HARMONi-7: Assesses Ivonescimab monotherapy versus pembrolizumab in high PD-L1 expression metastatic NSCLC.

Ivonescimab remains investigational outside China, where it was approved in May 2024, and has FDA Fast Track designation for HARMONi.
