Comprehensive Phase 2b Program with PN-881, an Oral IL-17 Antagonist for Psoriasis, Planned to Initiate Early Q1 2027

Phase 1 Study Initiated with PN-477sc, a Triple GLP1/GIP/GCG Agonist Peptide for Obesity

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities of $849.5 Million as of June 30, 2026

NEWARK, Calif., August 5, 2026 – Protagonist Therapeutics (Nasdaq: PTGX) (“Protagonist” or “the Company”) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026 and provided a corporate update.

"The second quarter of 2026 marked a defining growth phase for Protagonist with a successful commercial launch of ICOTYDE through our strategic partner and accelerating momentum across our internal R&D pipeline. ICOTYDE is quickly becoming a paradigm-shifting oral therapy for patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, and rusfertide is approaching an FDA decision that could establish it as a first-in-class erythrocytosis targeted medicine for patients with polycythemia vera,” said Dinesh V. Patel, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Protagonist Therapeutics. “Equally exciting is the decision to advance our wholly-owned oral IL-17 antagonist PN-881 into a comprehensive Phase 2b psoriasis program, based on the strongly supportive pharmacokinetic results from the Phase 1 study. Behind PN-881, we have a maturing set of diverse assets moving toward clinical studies in obesity, hematology and immunology. These are the results of years of disciplined investment in differentiated science and mark the beginning, not the culmination, of a new phase of value creation as we continue to advance our peptide platform and clinical pipeline.”

About Protagonist

Protagonist Therapeutics is a discovery through late-stage development biopharmaceutical company with a proprietary technology platform that enables de novo discovery of peptide therapeutics. Two novel peptides derived from Protagonist's proprietary discovery platform are at or near commercialization. ICOTYDE^™ (icotrokinra), licensed to Johnson & Johnson company Janssen Biotech, Inc., is the first and only targeted oral peptide that precisely blocks the Interleukin-23 receptor. ICOTYDE, launched in the U.S. in March 2026, is approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age or older and is in Phase 3 development for psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. ICOTYDE was jointly discovered by Protagonist and Johnson & Johnson scientists, with Protagonist having primary responsibility for the development of ICOTYDE through Phase 1, and Johnson & Johnson assuming responsibility for further development and commercialization. Protagonist also discovered and led development through Phase 3 of rusfertide, a first-in-class hepcidin mimetic peptide licensed to Takeda Pharmaceuticals. An NDA for rusfertide for the treatment of polycythemia vera is under priority review with the FDA. The Company also has a number of clinical and preclinical programs addressing clinically and commercially validated

targets, including an oral IL-17 antagonist peptide, obesity dual and triple agonists, an oral hepcidin functional mimetic, and the recently announced IL-4 and amylin programs.
