Supplement to Definitive Proxy Statement for
2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
To Be Held on May 21, 2026
Explanatory Note
This supplement to the proxy statement dated April 21, 2026 (the Supplement) supplements the definitive proxy statement of Nuvation Bio Inc. (the Company) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on April 10, 2026 (the Proxy Statement) in connection with the Company's 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 21, 2026 (the Annual Meeting).
This Supplement is being filed to correct a typographical error contained in the Non-Employee Director Compensation table included on page 20 of the Proxy Statement, which incorrectly reported the cash compensation paid to Robert Mashal, M.D. as $37,500. The correct amount of cash compensation paid to Robert Mashal, M.D. is $47,500, which also results in a change to Dr. Mashal's total compensation amount. Accordingly, the Proxy Statement disclosure under the heading "Non-Employee Director Compensation" is amended and replaced in its entirety with the following disclosure.
Non-Employee Director Compensation
The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation earned by our non-employee directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025:

As of December 31, 2025, each of our then-serving non-employee directors held options to purchase an aggregate of 292,983 shares of our Class A Stock, other than Dr. Cui who held no options to purchase shares of our capital stock and Dr. Mashal who held options to purchase an aggregate of 560,632 shares of our Class A Stock.
