    • Usman Azam, M.D., is appointed President and Chief Executive Officer of Cue Biopharma, effective September 29, 2025
    • Daniel Passeri, Chief Executive Officer of Cue Biopharma, transitions to Strategic Advisor to provide ongoing support to the Company
    • Cue Biopharma prioritizes autoimmune disease for next stage of growth with focus on advancing first-in-class tolerogenic biologic CUE-401 into the clinic



    BOSTON, Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- -- Cue Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: CUE), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel class of therapeutic biologics to selectively engage and modulate disease-specific T cells for the treatment of autoimmune disease and cancer, today announced that Usman "Oz" Azam, M.D., has been appointed President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Cue Biopharma, effective September 29, 2025. Daniel Passeri will transition from his current role as CEO to one of Strategic Advisor, effective as of the same date.  

    "This strategic transition in leadership is a timely and important step forward, enhancing the Company's next stage of corporate development with a prioritized focus on autoimmune disease," said Daniel Passeri, chief executive officer of Cue Biopharma. "Dr. Azam‘s significant experience across the entire drug development value-chain, including clinical trial design and execution, as well as product launches is invaluable for advancing the Company's first-in-class tolerogenic drug candidate CUE-401 for autoimmune diseases, our partnered program CUE-501 and for securing strategic partners for our clinical-stage CUE-100 series assets."

    Dr. Azam brings over 25 years of drug discovery and development leadership as well as operating expertise to Cue Biopharma. Most recently, Dr. Azam served as CEO of Inspirna, Inc., a privately held clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of novel cancer drugs. Prior to Inspirna, Dr. Azam served as CEO of Empyrean Neuroscience, a genetic engineering company, advancing a pipeline of neuroactive compounds targeting disorders of the central nervous system. As President and CEO of Tmunity Therapeutics, he was involved in developing genetically engineered CAR-T cell therapies for solid tumor applications in cancer. He served as Global Head of the Cell and Gene Therapies unit at Novartis where he helped deliver and launch the first-ever FDA approval for a CAR-T cell therapy in hematologic cancers. Dr. Azam is well-respected in the industry for his extensive experience in leadership roles across both innovative biotechnology and large pharmaceutical companies, namely Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, Aspreva Pharmaceuticals, Johnson & Johnson, and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). The learnings across these roles and his in-depth experience with T cell therapeutics make him well-suited to foster the Company's next stage of growth.

    "I am very pleased to be taking on the role of CEO and working closely with the Cue Biopharma team at this important stage of the Company's development," said Dr. Azam. "What has me most excited about joining the Company is CUE-401, a molecule designed to restore immune homeostasis and tolerance, with the potential to disrupt the standard of care in autoimmune disease. I look forward to effectively driving CUE-401 through clinical development, creating value by addressing significant unmet medical need."

    Pasha Sarraf, M.D., Ph.D., chairman of the board of Cue Biopharma stated, "Cue's board is pleased to welcome Oz as our new President and CEO. As the Company focuses on autoimmunity, we believe CUE-401's tolerogenic mechanism has the potential to become the ‘Keytruda' for autoimmune disease, enabling deep and durable remissions to free patients from lifelong therapies and chronic disease. The Board is energized to partner with Oz to bring this vision to life. Additionally, we extend our deep gratitude and sincere appreciation to Dan for his leadership and forward-looking vision navigating the company through the many challenges that have faced the biotech industry over the years. He has provided us with the foundation for continued success and growth."

    From the Cue Biopharma Team

    We look forward to continuing to work with Dan in his new role as Strategic Advisor and thank him for his dedication and commitment to the development of novel therapeutics for patients suffering from life-threatening diseases.

    About Cue Biopharma

    Cue Biopharma, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, is developing a novel class of injectable biologics to selectively engage and modulate disease-specific T cells directly within the patient's body. The company's proprietary platform, Immuno-STAT® (Selective Targeting and Alteration of T cells), and biologics are designed to harness the curative potential of the body's intrinsic immune system without the adverse effects of broad systemic immune modulation. CUE-401, the company's lead autoimmune asset, is designed to act mechanistically as a master switch for regulatory T cell (Treg) differentiation and tolerance induction. It is a highly innovative bifunctional molecule combining a TGF-beta breathing-mask moiety with Cue Biopharma's clinically validated interleukin (IL-2) mutein in a single injectable biologic.

    Headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, we are led by an experienced management team with deep expertise in immunology and immuno-oncology as well as the design and clinical development of protein biologics.
