Regulatory clearance has been received to initiate the FREEDOM2 trial in South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand, with active sites in Canada, the UK, and South Korea. The U.S. FDA placed a partial clinical hold on the FREEDOM2 study related to preclinical data, but the timing of the ongoing clinical study has not been impacted. ### Outlook / Guidance PepGen Inc. expects to report data from the 10 mg/kg cohort of FREEDOM2 in the second half of 2026 and from the 12.5 mg/kg cohort in 2027.

PepGen Inc. continues to work with the FDA to address questions regarding the partial clinical hold on the FREEDOM2 study. ### Related Stocks - [PEPG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PEPG.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [The Home Depot Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results; Reaffirms Fiscal 2026 Guidance | HD Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286890512.md) - [ONWARD Medical to Announce First Quarter 2026 Results on May 26, 2026 | ONWRY Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286858298.md) - [GDEV announces results for the first quarter of 2026 | GDEV Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286909689.md) - [LOWE'S REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2026 SALES AND EARNINGS RESULTS | LOW Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/287043063.md) - [Yext to Announce First Quarter Fiscal Year 2027 Financial Results on June 2, 2026 | YEXT Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286970613.md)
