R&D Expense

Research and development expenses were $25.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2025 as compared to $33.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2024. This decrease during the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in expense related to lower clinical trial costs in our ozekibart registration-enabling trial for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic conventional chondrosarcoma as the trial approached completion of enrollment ahead of our data readout in October 2025, as well as a decrease in contract manufacturing expenses;
Research and development expenses were $113.0 million during the fiscal year 2025 as compared to $203.7 million during the fiscal year 2024. This decrease during the fiscal year 2025 was primarily due to the following factors:
- a decrease in clinical trial expense primarily related to lower clinical trial costs in our ozekibart registration-enabling trial for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic conventional chondrosarcoma as discussed above;
- a decrease in contract manufacturing expense primarily attributable to decreased expenses incurred at our contract development and manufacturing organizations for our ozekibart program and INBRX-106 program, as well as decreased expenses following the 101 Transaction; and
- increased personnel-related expense during the fiscal year 2024 related to the recognition of $25.9 million upon the acceleration of outstanding options in connection with the closing of the 101 Transaction.

G&A Expense

General and administrative expenses were $5.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $16.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2024. This decrease during the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily due to an increase in legal services incurred in the prior period in connection with legal proceedings, which have since concluded, finding the Company not liable for damages.
General and administrative expenses were $23.3 million during the fiscal year 2025, compared to $127.9 million during the fiscal year 2024. This decrease during the fiscal year 2025 was primarily due to the following factors:
- one-time expenses incurred during the fiscal year 2024 related to the 101 Transaction, including $68.1 million of legal, advisory, and consulting services, and the recognition of $15.2 million in stock option expense upon the acceleration of outstanding options in connection with the closing of the 101 Transaction; and
- increased expense during the fiscal year 2024 related to legal services incurred in connection with the Company's legal proceedings as discussed above.
