We are pleased to take advantage of Securities and Exchange Commission rules that allow companies to furnish their proxy materials over the Internet. We are mailing to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2022 Annual Report to Stockholders ("2022 Annual Report"). The Notice contains instructions on how to access those documents and to cast your vote via the Internet. The Notice also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2022 Annual Report. This process allows us to provide our stockholders with the information they need on a more timely basis, while reducing the environmental impact and lowering the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials.

Please follow the instructions on the Notice or proxy card that you received.

Please see the “General Information” section of the proxy statement that accompanies this notice for more details regarding the logistics of the virtual Annual Meeting, including the ability of stockholders to submit questions during the Annual Meeting, and technical details and support related to accessing the virtual platform.

To ensure that your vote is recorded promptly, please vote as soon as possible, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, by submitting your voting instructions via the Internet at the address listed on the proxy card, or over the phone, or by signing, dating and returning the proxy card.

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised at the meeting by giving our Corporate Secretary written notice to that effect.

We made this proxy statement and our Annual Report to Stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the "2022 Annual Report") available to stockholders on April 27, 2023.

We are an “emerging growth company” under applicable federal securities laws and therefore permitted to conform with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. As an emerging growth company, we provide in this proxy statement the scaled disclosure permitted under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"), including the compensation disclosures required of a “smaller reporting company,” as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). In addition, as an emerging growth company, we are not required to conduct votes seeking approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers or the frequency with which such votes must be conducted. We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering in July 2020; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenue is equal to or more than $1.235 billion; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), except for exhibits, will be furnished without charge to any stockholder upon written request to iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., 321 Arsenal Street, Suite 301, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472, Attention: Corporate Secretary. This proxy statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, are also available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

When are this proxy statement and the accompanying materials scheduled to be sent to stockholders?

We have elected to provide access to our proxy materials to our stockholders via the Internet. Accordingly, on or about April 27, 2023, we will begin mailing the Notice. Our proxy materials, including the Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card or, for shares held in street name (i.e., held for your account by a broker or other nominee), a voting instruction form, and the 2022 Annual Report will be mailed or made available to stockholders on the Internet on or about the same date.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, for most stockholders, we are providing access to our proxy materials over the Internet rather than printing and mailing our proxy materials. We believe following this process will expedite the receipt of such materials and will help lower our costs and reduce the environmental impact of our annual meeting materials. Therefore, the Notice was mailed to holders of record and beneficial owners of our common stock starting on or about April 27, 2023. The Notice provides instructions as to how stockholders may access and review our proxy materials, including the Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement, the proxy card and our 2022 Annual Report, on the website referred to in the Notice or, alternatively, how to request that a copy of the proxy materials, including a proxy card, be sent to them by mail. The Notice also provides voting instructions. In addition, stockholders of record may request to receive the proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail on an ongoing basis for future stockholder meetings. Please note that, while our proxy materials are available at the website referenced in the Notice, and our Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement and our 2022 Annual Report are available on our website, no other information contained on either website is incorporated by reference in or considered to be a part of this proxy statement.

The record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is the close of business on April 18, 2023.

There were 35,763,421 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, outstanding on April 18, 2023, all of which are entitled to vote with respect to all matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. Each stockholder of record is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock held by such stockholder. None of our shares of undesignated preferred stock were outstanding as of April 18, 2023.

If you submit voting instructions over the Internet prior to the Annual Meeting, you do not need to complete and mail your proxy card or submit your voting instructions by telephone.

To provide voting instructions by telephone, please call 1-800-652-8683, and follow the instructions provided on the proxy card. If you submit voting instructions by telephone, you do not need to complete and mail your proxy card or submit your voting instructions over the internet.

If you submit a proxy card by mail, you do not need to submit voting instructions over the Internet or by telephone. If we receive the proxy card submitted by mail no later than June 8, 2023, we will vote your shares as you direct.

If you vote by proxy prior to the Annual Meeting and choose to attend the Annual Meeting online, there is no need to vote again during the Annual Meeting unless you wish to change your vote.

Proposal 2: FOR ratification of the selection of Deloitte Bedrijfsrevisoren / Réviseurs d’Entreprises BV/SRL as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm

You may revoke your proxy by (1) following the instructions on the Notice and submitting a new proxy by mail that we receive before the start of the Annual Meeting or submit new voting instructions by phone or over the Internet, (2) attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not in and of itself revoke a proxy), or (3) by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with our Corporate Secretary. Any written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy card must be received by our Corporate Secretary prior to the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting. Such written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy card should be hand delivered to our Corporate Secretary or sent to our principal executive offices at iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., 321 Arsenal Street, Suite 301, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

If a broker, bank, or other nominee holds your shares, you must contact such broker, bank, or nominee to find out how to change your voting instructions.

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws, or bylaws, provide that a majority of the shares entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.

Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, shares that are voted “abstain” or “withheld” and broker “non-votes” are counted as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. If a quorum is not present, the meeting may be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting will be counted by the persons appointed by the Company to act as tabulators for the meeting. The tabulators will count all votes cast, abstentions and broker non-votes, as applicable, for each matter to be voted on at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast and, therefore, do not have the effect of votes in opposition to such proposals. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

For the election of the Class III director nominees, the director nominees presented must be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, meaning that the director nominees with the greatest number of FOR votes cast for election, even if less than a majority, will be elected. Proposal 1 is a non-routine matter. Therefore, if your shares are held by your bank, broker or other nominee in street name and you do not vote your shares, your bank, broker or other nominee cannot vote your shares on Proposal 1. Shares held in street name by banks, brokers or nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have authority to vote the shares on Proposal 1 will not be counted as votes FOR or WITHHOLD for any director nominee and will be treated as broker non-votes. Because there is no minimum vote required, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the voting of Proposal 1.

Proposal 2: Ratification of the selection of Deloitte Bedrijfsrevisoren / Réviseurs d’Entreprises BV/SRL as our independent registered public accounting firm

For the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for our 2023 fiscal year, the proposal must receive a majority of votes cast in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. To ratify the selection of Deloitte, the votes cast FOR must exceed the votes cast AGAINST. Only FOR and AGAINST votes will affect the outcome. Abstentions will have no effect on the voting of Proposal 2. Proposal 2 is a routine matter. Therefore, if your shares are held by your bank, broker or other nominee in street name and you do not vote your shares, your bank, broker or other nominee may vote your shares on Proposal 2.

If there are insufficient votes to approve Proposal(s) 1 or 2 your proxy may be voted by the persons named in the proxy to adjourn the Annual Meeting in order to solicit additional proxies in favor of the approval of such proposal. If the Annual Meeting is adjourned or

postponed for any purpose, at any subsequent reconvening of the meeting, your proxy will be voted in the same manner as it would have been voted at the original convening of the Annual Meeting unless you withdraw or revoke your proxy. Your proxy may be voted in this manner even though it may have been voted on the same or any other matter at a previous session of the Annual Meeting.

Under our bylaws, any proposal other than an election of directors is decided by a majority of the votes properly cast for and against such proposal, except where a larger vote is required by law or by our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, or certificate of incorporation, or bylaws. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on any such proposal and, therefore, do not have an impact on such proposals. A broker “non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item, and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

If your shares are held in “street name” by a brokerage firm, your brokerage firm is required to vote your shares according to your instructions. If you do not give instructions to your brokerage firm, the brokerage firm will still be able to vote your shares with respect to certain “discretionary” items, but will not be allowed to vote your shares with respect to “non-discretionary” items. Proposal No. 1 is a “non-discretionary” item. If you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to these proposals, your broker may not vote for these proposals, and those votes will be counted as broker “non-votes.” Proposal No. 2 is considered to be a discretionary item, and your brokerage firm will be able to vote on this proposal even if it does not receive instructions from you.

To be elected, the directors nominated via Proposal No. 1 must receive a plurality of the votes cast and entitled to vote on the proposal, meaning that the director nominees with the greatest number of FOR votes cast for election, even if less than a majority, will be elected. Shares voting WITHHOLD will have no effect on the election of directors.

We are making this solicitation and will pay the entire cost of preparing and distributing the Notice and our proxy materials and soliciting votes. If you choose to access the proxy materials or vote over the Internet, you are responsible for any Internet access charges that you may incur. Our officers and employees may, without compensation other than their regular compensation, solicit proxies through further mailings, personal conversations, facsimile transmissions, e-mails, or otherwise.

In addition, any stockholder proposal intended to be included in the proxy statement for the next year’s annual meeting of our stockholders must also satisfy the requirements of SEC Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and be received not later than December 29, 2023. If the date of the annual meeting is moved by more than 30 days from the date contemplated at the time of the previous year’s proxy statement, then notice must be received within a reasonable time before we begin to print and send proxy materials. If that happens, we will publicly announce the deadline for submitting a proposal in a press release or in a document filed with the SEC.

We plan to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and will publish final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within four business days following the Annual Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form?

It means that you have multiple accounts at the transfer agent or with brokers. Please complete and return all proxy cards or voting instruction forms to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Our Board currently consists of nine members. In accordance with the terms of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, our Board is divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms. The members of the classes are divided as follows:

Upon the expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors in that class will be eligible to be elected for a new three-year term at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which their term expires.

Our bylaws provide for a plurality voting standard for the election of directors, which provides that the director nominees with the greatest number of FOR votes cast for election, even if less than a majority, will be elected. The number of votes cast with respect to that director’s election excludes abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to that director’s election. Because there is no minimum vote required under the plurality voting standard, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of directors. The proxies will be voted in favor of the above director nominees unless a contrary specification is made in the proxy. Each director nominee has consented to serve as our director if elected. However, if any director nominee is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve as a director, the proxies will be voted for the election of such substitute director nominee as our Board may designate.

Further, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our Board. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that our directors may be removed only for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares then entitled to vote in an annual election of directors, and that any vacancy on our Board, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of our Board, may be filled only by vote of a majority of our directors then in office.

Our Board has nominated Michel Detheux, David L. Hallal, Tim Van Hauwermeiren and Robert Iannone for election as Class III directors at the Annual Meeting. The nominees are presently directors, and each has indicated a willingness to continue to serve as a director, if elected. If any nominee becomes unable or unwilling to serve, however, the proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee selected by our Board.

The following table sets forth the name, age as of April 27, 2023, and certain other information for our directors, Michel Detheux, David L. Hallal, Tim Van Hauwermeiren and Robert Iannone, each with a term expiring at the Annual Meeting (each of whom is a nominee for election as a director at the Annual Meeting).

(f/k/a Euroscreen), a clinical stage drug discovery company.

We believe that Dr. Detheux is qualified to serve as a member of our Board because of his expertise in discovery and business development, and managerial experience.

He also has served as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Scholar Rock Holding Corporation since July 2017 and as the Lead Independent Director of the Board of Directors of Seer Biosciences, Inc. since March 2018.

We believe that Dr. Iannone is qualified to serve on our Board due to his experience in oncology drug development and his leadership experience in the life science industry as a physician, his executive roles and his board memberships.

The Board recommends voting “FOR” Proposal 1 to elect Michel Detheux, David L. Hallal, Tim Van Hauwermeiren and Robert Iannone as the Class III directors, to serve for a three-year term ending at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026.

He has published over 80 papers across several fields and is co-inventor of seven patents. We believe that Dr. Ho is qualified to serve on our Board due to his experience in oncology drug development and his leadership experience in the life science industry as a physician, his executive roles and his board memberships.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 – RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF Deloitte Bedrijfsrevisoren / Réviseurs d’Entreprises BV/SRL

iTeos’ stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment by the audit committee of the Board of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. Deloitte has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2017.

The audit committee is solely responsible for selecting iTeos’ independent registered public accounting firm and has appointed Deloitte as auditors for iTeos for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. Stockholder approval is not required to appoint Deloitte as iTeos’ independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Board believes that submitting the appointment of Deloitte to the stockholders for ratification is good corporate governance. The selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm will be ratified if the votes cast FOR exceed the votes cast AGAINST the proposal. Brokers, bankers and other nominees have discretionary voting power on this routine matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the ratification. If the stockholders do not ratify this appointment, the audit committee will reconsider whether to retain Deloitte. If the selection of Deloitte is not ratified, the audit committee, at its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time it decides that such a change would be in the best interest of iTeos and its stockholders.

A representative of Deloitte is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders.

iTeos incurred the following fees from Deloitte for the audit of the consolidated financial statements and for other services provided during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. All fees were approved by the Audit Committee.

Our audit committee has adopted policies and procedures relating to the approval of all audit and non-audit services that are to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. This policy provides that we will not engage our independent registered public accounting firm to render audit or non-audit services unless the service is specifically approved in advance by our audit committee, or the engagement is entered into pursuant to the pre-approval procedure described below.

From time to time, our audit committee may pre-approve specified types of services that are expected to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm during the next 12 months. Any such pre-approval details the particular service or type of services to be provided and is also generally subject to a maximum dollar amount.

During our 2022 and 2021 fiscal years, no services were provided to us by Deloitte other than in accordance with the pre-approval policies and procedures described above.

The Board recommends voting “FOR” Proposal No. 2 to ratify the appointment of Deloitte Bedrijfsrevisoren / Réviseurs d’Entreprises BV/SRL as iTeos’ independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

Identifying and Evaluating Director Nominees. Our Board is responsible for filling vacancies on our Board and for nominating candidates for election by our stockholders each year in the class of directors whose term expires at the relevant annual meeting. The Board delegates the selection and nomination process to the nominating and corporate governance committee, with the expectation that other members of the Board, and of management, will be requested to take part in the process as appropriate.

Generally, the nominating and corporate governance committee identifies individuals qualified to serve as directors, consistent with criteria approved by our Board and in consultation with management, through the use of search firms or other advisors, through the recommendations submitted by stockholders or through such other methods as the nominating and corporate governance committee deems to be helpful to identify candidates. Once candidates have been identified, the nominating and corporate governance committee confirms that the candidates meet all of the minimum qualifications for director nominees established by the nominating and corporate governance committee. The nominating and corporate governance committee may gather information about the candidates through interviews, detailed questionnaires, comprehensive background checks or any other means that the nominating and corporate governance committee deems to be appropriate in the evaluation process. The nominating and corporate governance committee then meets as a group to discuss and evaluate the qualities and skills of each candidate, both on an individual basis and taking into account the overall composition and needs of our Board. Based on the results of the evaluation process, the nominating and corporate governance committee recommends candidates for the Boards’ approval to fill a vacancy or as director nominees for election to the Board by our stockholders each year in the class of directors whose term expires at the relevant annual meeting.

The qualifications, qualities and skills that our nominating and corporate governance committee believes must be met by a committee-recommended nominee for a position on our Board are as follows:

In evaluating proposed director candidates, our nominating and corporate governance committee may consider, in addition to the minimum qualifications and other criteria for board membership approved by the Board from time to time, all facts and circumstances that it deems appropriate or advisable, including, among other things, diversity considerations, the skills of the proposed director candidate, his or her depth and breadth of professional experience or other background characteristics, his or her independence, and the needs of the Board. Our corporate governance guidelines also provide that diversity on the Board should be considered by our nominating and corporate governance committee in the director evaluation and nomination process. While we have no formal policy regarding board diversity, our nominating and corporate governance committee believes that it is essential that the members of the Board represent diverse viewpoints. Our nominating and corporate governance committee believes that the backgrounds and qualifications of our directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow our Board to promote our strategic objectives and fulfill its responsibilities to our stockholders.

Our Board believes that all members of the Board should devote sufficient time and attention to their duties and to otherwise fulfill the responsibilities required of directors. Our Board does not believe that explicit limits on the number of other boards of directors on which a director sits, or on other activities a director pursues, are appropriate. However, in accordance with our corporate governance guidelines, our nominating and corporate governance committee considers whether the performance of a director has been or is likely to be adversely affected by excessive time commitments, including service on other boards of directors. Service on an excessive number of public company boards is commonly referred to as “overboarding”. Our Board believes that each of our directors has demonstrated the ability to devote sufficient time and attention to board duties and to otherwise fulfill the responsibilities required of directors. However, we understand that certain of our stockholders, and certain proxy advisory firms, may deem each of Aaron Davis and Derek DiRocco “overboarded” under such firms’ respective policies based on the number of public company boards on which he serves. After careful consideration, the Board believes that each of Mr. Davis and Dr. DiRocco has dedicated, and will continue to dedicate, sufficient time to effectively carry out his duties as a member of the Board and believes that his service with other public companies does not, and will not, negatively impact his service on our Board.

Our Board believes that it is in the Company’s best interest that Mr. Davis continue to serve as a director because (i) we stand to benefit from the insights gained by Mr. Davis’ extensive experience in investing in the healthcare and biotechnology sectors and as a director of other public companies in such sectors and (ii) Mr. Davis is an active participant in Board and science and technology committee meetings. Furthermore Mr. Davis’ attendance record demonstrates his commitment to the Board - he has participated in 86% of all Board and applicable committee meetings over the past three years. Mr. Davis has assured the Board that he remains fully committed to dedicating the appropriate amount of time and attention to his duties as a member of the Board and the science and technology committee. Our Board also believes that it is in the company’s best interest that Dr. DiRocco continue to serve as a director because (i) we stand to benefit from the insights gained by Dr. DiRocco’s extensive experience in the biotechnology sector and as a director of other public companies and (ii) Dr. DiRocco is an active participant in Board and audit committee meetings. Furthermore, Dr. DiRocco’s attendance record demonstrates his commitment to the Board - he has participated in 97% of all Board and applicable committee meetings in the past three years. Dr. DiRocco has assured the Board that he remains fully committed to dedicating the appropriate amount of time and attention to his duties as a member of the Board and the audit committee.

Our priority in selection of board members is identification of members who will further the interests of our stockholders through their established record of professional accomplishment, their ability to contribute positively to the collaborative culture among board members, and their knowledge of our business and understanding of the competitive landscape.

Stockholders may recommend individuals to the nominating and corporate governance committee for consideration as potential director candidates. Any such proposals should be submitted to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices no later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the one-year anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting and should include appropriate biographical and background material to allow the nominating and corporate governance committee to properly evaluate the potential director candidate and the number of shares of our stock beneficially owned by the stockholder proposing the candidate. Stockholder proposals should be addressed to iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., 321 Arsenal Street, Suite 301, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Assuming that biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis in accordance with our bylaws, any recommendations received from stockholders will be evaluated in the same manner as potential nominees proposed by the nominating and corporate governance committee. If our Board determines to nominate a stockholder-recommended candidate and recommends his or her election, then his or her name will be included on our proxy card for the next annual meeting of stockholders. In addition to satisfying the requirements under the bylaws, described in “Stockholder Proposals”, to comply with the universal proxy rules under the Exchange Act, any stockholder who intends to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Board’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than 60 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting. However, if the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders is changed by more than 30 days from the date of the previous year’s meeting, then such notice must be delivered by the later of (a) the 60th day prior to such annual meeting and (b) the 10th day following the day on which notice of the date of such annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs. See “Stockholder Proposals” for a discussion of submitting stockholder proposals and complying with the universal proxy rules.

Under the Nasdaq listing rules, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors within twelve months from the date of listing. In addition, the Nasdaq listing rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees be independent within twelve months from the date of listing. Audit committee members must also satisfy additional independence criteria, including those set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and compensation committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act. Under Nasdaq listing rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries, other than compensation for board service; or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10C-1, the board of directors must consider, for each member of a compensation committee of a listed company, all factors specifically relevant to determining whether a director has a relationship to such company which is material to that director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member, including, but not limited to: the source of compensation of the director, including any consulting advisory or other compensatory fee paid by such company to the director, and whether the director is affiliated with the company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

In April 2023, our Board undertook a review of the composition of our Board and its committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board has determined that all members of our Board, except Michel Detheux, Ph.D., are independent directors, including for purposes of Nasdaq and the SEC rules. In making that determination, our Board considered the relationships that each director has with us and all other facts and circumstances the Board deemed relevant in determining independence, including the potential deemed beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each director, including non-employee directors that are affiliated with certain of our major stockholders. The composition and functioning of our Board and each of our committees will comply with all applicable requirements of Nasdaq and the rules and regulations of the SEC. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Our Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating and corporate governance committee and a science and technology committee. Each such committee operates under a charter that satisfies the applicable standards of the SEC and Nasdaq and reviews its respective charter at least annually. A current copy of the charter for each of the audit committee, compensation committee, nominating and corporate governance committee and science and technology committee is posted on the corporate governance section of our website. We believe that the composition and functioning of all of our committees will comply with the applicable requirements of Nasdaq, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and SEC rules and regulations that will be applicable to us. We intend to comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to us.

Ann D. Rhoads, Derek DiRocco and David L. Hallal serve on the audit committee, which is chaired by Ann D. Rhoads. Our Board has determined that each member of the audit committee is “independent” for audit committee purposes as that term is defined in the rules of the SEC and the applicable Nasdaq rules, and each meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the Nasdaq listing rules. Our Board has determined that Ms. Rhoads is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under the applicable rules of the SEC. In accordance with the audit committee charter, our Board has determined that the simultaneous service of each of Ms. Rhoads and Dr. DiRocco on four public company audit committees, inclusive of our audit committee, would not impair the ability of such member to effectively serve on our audit committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the audit committee met six times and acted by unanimous written consent once.

The report of the audit committee is included in this proxy statement under “Report of the Audit Committee.” The audit committee’s responsibilities include:

Tim Van Hauwermeiren, Detlev Biniszkiewicz, Ann D. Rhoads and Robert Iannone serve on the compensation committee, which is chaired by Tim Van Hauwermeiren. Our Board has determined that each member of the compensation committee is “independent” as defined in the applicable Nasdaq rules. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the compensation committee met five times and acted by unanimous written consent three times. The compensation committee’s responsibilities include:

David L. Hallal, Ann D. Rhoads, and Tony Ho serve on the nominating and corporate governance committee, which is chaired by David L. Hallal. Our Board has determined that each member of the nominating and corporate governance committee is “independent” as defined in the applicable Nasdaq rules. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the nominating and corporate governance committee met once. The nominating and corporate governance committee’s responsibilities include:

The nominating and corporate governance committee considers candidates for Board membership suggested by its members and the Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, in selecting nominees for directors, the nominating and corporate governance committee will review candidates recommended by stockholders in the same manner and using the same general criteria as candidates recruited by the committee and/or recommended by our Board. Any stockholder who wishes to recommend a candidate for consideration by the committee as a nominee for director should follow the procedures described later in this proxy statement under the heading “Stockholder Proposals.” The nominating and corporate governance committee will also consider whether to nominate any person proposed by a stockholder in accordance with the provisions of our bylaws relating to stockholder nominations as described later in this proxy statement under the heading “Stockholder Proposals.”

Our science and technology committee consists of Tim Van Hauwermeiren, Detlev Biniszkiewicz, Aaron Davis, Tony Ho and Robert Iannone and is chaired by Detlev Biniszkiewicz. The functions of the science and technology committee include:

The full Board met five times during 2022 and acted by unanimous written consent three times. During 2022, each member of the Board, except Aaron Davis, attended in person or participated in 75% or more of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board (held during the period for which such person has been a director) and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which such person served (during the periods that such person served). Aaron Davis attended in person or participated in 70% of the aggregate of such meetings. The non-management directors met three times in executive session during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The audit committee and the Board have established a procedure whereby interested parties may make their concerns known to non-management directors, which is described on our website.

Currently, we do not maintain a formal policy regarding director attendance at the Annual Meeting, however directors are encouraged to attend the annual meeting of stockholders to the extent practicable. All then serving directors attended the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Certain transactions in our securities (such as purchases and sales of publicly traded put and call options, and short sales) create a heightened compliance risk or could create the appearance of misalignment between management and stockholders. In addition, securities held in a margin account or pledged as collateral may be sold without consent if the owner fails to meet a margin call or defaults on the loan, thus creating the risk that a sale may occur at a time when an officer or director is aware of material, non-public information or otherwise is not permitted to trade in Company securities. Our insider trading policy expressly prohibits short sales, derivative transactions of our stock and hedging transactions by our executive officers, directors, employees and certain designated consultants and contractors.

We have adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions), agents and representatives, including directors and consultants. A current copy of the code is posted on the corporate governance section of our website, which is located at https://investors.iteostherapeutics.com/corporate-governance/documents-and-charters. If we make any substantive amendments to, or grant any waivers from, the code of business conduct and ethics for any officer or director, we will disclose the nature of such amendment or waiver on our website, in an annual report on Form 10-K, in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q or in a current report on Form 8-K.

We are committed to building Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles into how we operate and create sustainable value for society and all of our stakeholders. We strive to promote a healthy and productive workforce, diversity and inclusion, employee engagement and talent development. We are doing our part to reduce our environmental impacts where we can, whether through travel, technology, or office space.

We believe that the 17 United Nations SDGs are representative of the most complex global challenges. We have prioritized nine SDGs where we can help make the greatest difference based on our expertise, therapeutics areas, and business strategies. These nine SDGs are: good health and well being; quality education; gender equality; decent work and economic growth; reduced inequalities; sustainable cities and communities; responsible consumption and production; climate action; and peace, justice and strong institutions.

Our mission to improve the lives of people with cancer is dependent on our ability to attract, develop and retain the industry’s best and brightest talent across all dimensions of diversity. This understanding informs our approach to managing our talent.

We are dedicated to providing an inclusive, collaborative, and safe work environment for our employees. We regularly measure employee engagement and identify areas of focus. Maintaining open lines of communication across the company is an important feature of our culture and improves our performance.

We prioritize our employees' career advancement, and actively work across the organization to provide opportunities for our people to grow with the Company and assume more senior roles as the Company expands. We offer a number of employee training programs, including on-demand learning, educational sessions to share knowledge across the company about research and development topics in the healthcare sector, primarily in the oncology field, and a leadership development program focusing on communication and effective interaction with others.

We offer a comprehensive total rewards package that includes market-competitive pay, broad-based equity grants and bonuses, healthcare benefits, retirement savings plans, paid time off and family leave, and tuition reimbursement.

Employee health and safety in the workplace is one of our main priorities. We established a Health and Safety Committee, which provides a forum for employees and management to work together to prevent health and safety problems and to develop strategies to ensure a safe and healthy work environment.

We provide access to programs that strengthen and support the emotional wellness and resiliency of our workforce. These resources include an Employee Assistance Program, which provides a highly accessible channel for employees to quickly and discreetly receive information, advice, or guidance on any personal questions or difficulties that may affect their personal well-being and functioning within the Company. We also offer access to an online application that promotes mindfulness and guided meditation.

We continue to embrace hybrid ways of working that balance workplace flexibility with structured time together to collaborate and connect in person at our offices. Our goal is to provide the ability to work seamlessly across diverse workplaces, enabled by enhanced tools and technology designed to optimize productivity and collaboration.

At iTeos, we celebrate our differences and value the power of a diverse array of people who bring all of themselves to work. We embrace cultural, racial, gender, cognitive, social and professional diversity because we know that the only way we can make new cures possible is by working together. As of December 31, 2022, women represent 58% and men represent 42% of our global

workforce. Women represent 43% of the leadership positions at the Director level or above, and our Executive Committee, which represents the most senior leadership positions at the Company, is 43% female.

With corporate offices in Watertown, MA and Gosselies, Belgium, we employ people with cultural diversity and languages from multiple European Union countries as well as representation from the Middle East, Africa, and South America. The Company currently employs people from 16 different countries and we expect that number will continue to grow with the Company’s success.

To ensure patient safety, rights, and privacy, we strictly follow The Declaration of Helsinki, the Good Clinical Practice (GCP) defined by International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) E6, as well as national and local regulations. Essential documents produced for our clinical trials, such as protocols or informed consent forms, are approved by governing bodies and ethical committees ensuring independent and patient right and safety focused reviews. During the trials, continuous evaluation of patient safety is our top priority and is evaluated regularly by our clinical team with all relevant stakeholders. The risk benefit ratio is driving clinical design and trial management.

In collaboration with a Quality Representative and a Data Privacy Officer, our Clinical Operations department ensures real-time oversight of the trials, including the respect of patient consent and privacy.

Our products are manufactured following Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) defined by ICH Q7 within plants holding Manufacturing and Importation Authorizations and regularly inspected by competent authorities.

We are a registered Biobank at the Belgian Federal Agency for Medicines and Health Products as defined by the law of January 9, 2018. This allows our research and development team to work with human body material while respecting patients and donors’ rights and privacy. A managing physician oversees the biobank activity and provides regular reports to an ethical committee.

At iTeos, we know that small streams lead to big rivers. Through both corporate initiatives and individual contributions of our employees, we seek to make a deep impact on the communities where our people live and work, and where patients are treated. Our recent work in the community includes:

While iTeos’ core business is aimed on improving the lives of people with cancer, we also have a responsibility to protect our environment and understand that individual actions make a difference in both the U.S. and Belgium. We are mindful of our footprint and make conscious efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle.

We are an Eco-Partner with Graine de vie (Seed of Life), a non-governmental organization created under Belgian and Luxembourg law, enabling the compensation of the ecological footprints of industrialized countries through planting of trees in developing countries. The goal of this campaign is to plant trees which produce resources for daily life (fruit, coffee, cacao), support employment of local workers during tree planting, and support campaigns to protect and restore forests.

In addition, our Belgium office, which occupies lab and office space in an EOLE building, one of the first buildings offering some ecological solutions, possesses an environmental permit required to operate as a biotech company to ensure: (i) protection of employees, (ii) protection of the environment from GMO propagation and (iii) waste management linked to GMO activities. iTeos exceeds the minimum legal requirements in waste management. Finally, approximately 20% of our company cars in Belgium are electric or hybrid and we hope to increase this percentage in the near future.

Our bylaws and our corporate governance guidelines do not require that our chairman and chief executive officer positions be separate, which allows us flexibility to make leadership decisions in the best interest of the Company. The Board regularly considers the appropriate leadership structure for the Company and currently separates the roles of chairman of the Board and chief executive officer. We believe that separating these positions allows our chief executive officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the chairman of the Board to lead the Board in its fundamental role of providing advice to, and independent oversight of, management. Our Board recognizes the time, effort, and energy that the chief executive officer is required to devote to his position in the current business environment, as well as the commitment required to serve as our chairman, particularly as the Board's oversight responsibilities continue to grow. Our chairman of the Board has a number of critical responsibilities, including: presiding over Board meetings and executive sessions of the independent directors; in consultation with the chief executive officer, scheduling and setting the agendas for the Board meetings; ensuring open communication between the independent directors and executive leadership; providing input on the appropriate size, structure and composition of the Board and committees of the Board; maintaining frequent communication with the chief executive officer in between Board meetings to consider issues of importance to the Company, management and the Board; and representing the Board in communications with stockholders or other stakeholders. Our Board believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for us at this time and demonstrates our commitment to

good corporate governance. The Board may reevaluate whether the Company and its stockholders are best served by continuing to separate the roles of chairman of the Board and chief executive officer.

One of the most critical roles of our Chief Executive Officer and Board members is managing risk. Today’s environment consists of ongoing disruption, innovation, and technological change. Increasing disruption leads to greater risks, which may become greater still because they are often interconnected. Our Chief Executive Officer and senior management team are primarily responsible for managing the risks we face in the ordinary course of operating the business. We have implemented and continue to refine a formalized enterprise risk management process. On an annual basis, we identify key risks, assess their potential impact and likelihood, and, where appropriate, implement operational measures and controls to ensure adequate risk mitigation. Periodically, a long-term comprehensive enterprise risk management update is provided to our Board. The long-term goal of our enterprise risk management process is to ingrain a culture of risk awareness and mitigation throughout the organization that can be applied to our current business activities as well as our assessment and pursuit of future business opportunities.

Our Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, our Board has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The Board's risk oversight role is conducted primarily through committees of the Board, as disclosed in the descriptions of each of the committees above and in the charters of each of the committees. The Board discusses with management our major risk exposures, their potential impact on us, and the steps we take to manage them. When a Board committee is responsible for evaluating and overseeing the management of a particular risk or risks, the chairman of the relevant committee reports on the discussion to the full Board during the committee reports portion of the next board meeting. This enables the Board and its committees to coordinate the risk oversight role, particularly with respect to risk interrelationships. In performing their risk oversight role, our Board and each of its committees have full access to management, as well as the ability to engage outside advisors.

Below is a summary of key risk oversight responsibilities of our Board and its committees:

Any interested party with concerns about our company may report such concerns to our Board or the chairman of our Board and nominating and corporate governance committee, by submitting a written communication to the attention of such director at the following address:

You may submit your concern anonymously or confidentially by postal mail. You may also indicate whether you are a stockholder, customer, supplier, or other interested party.

A copy of any such written communication may also be forwarded to iTeos’ legal counsel and a copy of such communication may be retained for a reasonable period of time. The director may discuss the matter with iTeos’ legal counsel, with independent advisors,

with non-management directors, or with iTeos’ management, or may take other action or no action as the director determines in good faith, using reasonable judgment, and applying his or her own discretion.

Communications may be forwarded to other directors if they relate to important substantive matters and include suggestions or comments that may be important for other directors to know. In general, communications relating to corporate governance and long-term corporate strategy are more likely to be forwarded than communications relating to ordinary business affairs, personal grievances, and matters as to which we tend to receive repetitive or duplicative communications.

The audit committee oversees the procedures for the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received by iTeos regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or audit matters, and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters. iTeos has also established a toll-free telephone number for the reporting of such activity, which is 877-250-1966. Reports can also be made online at https://www.whistleblowerservices.com/ITOS.

The following table presents the total compensation for each person who served as a non-employee member of our Board and received compensation for such service during 2022. Other than as set forth in the table below, we did not pay any compensation, make any additional equity awards or non-equity awards to any of the non-employee members of our Board in 2022. During 2022, Dr. Detheux, our chief executive officer, was a member of our Board but received no additional compensation for his services as a director.

The amounts reported represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the stock options awarded to our non-employee directors during fiscal year 2022, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Such grant date fair values do not take into account any estimated forfeitures. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the stock options reported in this column are set forth in Note 8 of our audited consolidated financial statements included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for these stock options and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by our directors upon the exercise of the stock options or any sale of the underlying shares of common stock.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, our non-employee directors were eligible to receive the following cash retainers and equity awards:

In 2022, our compensation committee, in consultation with Radford, its independent compensation consultant, amended our non-employee director compensation policy (the “Amended Policy”). Under the Amended Policy, as well as the 2020 plan, the aggregate amount of compensation, including both equity compensation and cash compensation, paid to any non-employee director in a calendar year period will not exceed $750,000 ($1,000,000 for the calendar year in which a director is first appointed to our Board). The Amended Policy also reflects, among other changes, the removal of a prescribed number of shares subject to options to be granted to directors on an annual basis and upon their initial appointment to the Board. Under the Amended Policy, on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director who will continue as a non-employee director following such meeting will automatically be granted an annual equity award, which may consist of an option to purchase shares of our common stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), or a combination thereof, with a value determined in the discretion of the Board but subject to the applicable limits set forth in our 2020 plan and the Amended Policy (the “Annual Grant”). Under the Amended Policy, upon initial election to our Board, each non-employee director will be granted an initial equity award, which may consist of an option to purchase shares of our common stock, RSUs, RSAs, or a combination thereof, with a value determined in the discretion of the Board but subject to the applicable limits set forth in our 2020 plan and the Amended Policy (the “Initial Grant”). The vesting terms of the Initial Grant and Annual Grant will be determined by the Board at the time of grant and such awards are subject to full accelerated vesting upon the sale of our company, subject to such director’s continued service to us through the date of such sale.

During 2022, our Board determined that the Annual Award should consist of an option to purchase shares of our common stock with a grant date value of $245,458, which the Board, in consultation with Radford, estimated would be at approximately the 75th percentile for equity awards granted to directors at our peer companies. The Board further established that the 2022 Annual Award will vest and become exercisable in full upon the earlier to occur of (a) June 9, 2023, or (b) the next annual meeting of stockholders. There were no changes under the Amended Policy to the annual cash retainers to be received by our non-employee directors for board membership and service on board committees. Employee directors will continue to receive no additional compensation for their service as a director.

We will reimburse all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by directors for their attendance at meetings of our Board or any committee thereof.

In connection with Dr. Roden’s resignation from the Board, he entered into a consultancy agreement with us under which he will provide consulting services to us until January 31, 2024, subject to earlier termination. Under the terms of the agreement, Dr. Roden will receive a yearly consulting fee of $5,000, as well as an hourly fee for services rendered, and will retain, and continue to be eligible to vest in, his outstanding equity awards. Provided that the term of the consulting agreement does not terminate for Cause, as defined in our 2020 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, Dr. Roden’s stock option awards that are vested and outstanding as of the last day of the consulting period will remain exercisable during the six-month period following such date.

Our compensation committee is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding the equity and non-equity compensation of our executive officers, including our chief executive officer. Our chief executive officer also makes compensation recommendations to our compensation committee for each of our executive officers, other than with respect to his own compensation. These recommendations cover each executive officer’s target total direct compensation, consisting of base salary and short-term and long-term compensation, including equity incentives. In making these recommendations, our chief executive officer considers a variety of factors, including our results, the executive officer’s individual contribution toward these results, the executive officer’s role and performance of his or her duties and his or her achievement of individual goals, as well as the relative compensation among all of our executive officers. Our compensation committee reviews the recommendations of our chief executive officer and other data, including compensation survey data and publicly-available data of our peers. Our compensation committee then makes a recommendation to our Board for approval of the target total direct compensation, and each element thereof, for each of our executive officers, including our chief executive officer. While our chief executive officer attends certain meetings of our compensation committee, our compensation committee meets outside the presence of our chief executive officer when discussing his compensation and when discussing certain other matters as well.

Our compensation committee is authorized to retain the services of one or more executive compensation advisors, as it sees fit, in connection with the establishment of our executive compensation programs and related policies. The compensation committee has retained Radford, which is part of the Rewards Solutions practice at Aon plc (“Radford”), as its compensation consultant to provide it with market information, analysis and other advice relating to executive and director compensation on an ongoing basis. The compensation committee engaged Radford to, among other things, assist in developing a group of peer companies to help us evaluate the competitiveness of the overall compensation level for our executive officers, as well as to assess each separate element of compensation. The compensation committee considers Radford’s advice when making compensation decisions that are intended to further the objective that the compensation we offer to our executive officers, individually as well as in the aggregate, is competitive and aligned with our business and executive talent requirements. We do not believe the retention of, and the work performed by, Radford creates any conflict of interest because Radford does not perform any other work for the Company besides advising the compensation committee.

As an emerging growth company, we have opted to comply with the scaled executive compensation disclosure rules applicable to “smaller reporting companies,” as such term is defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). This section provides an overview of the compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to our principal executive officer and our next two most highly compensated executive officers (collectively, our “named executive officers”), during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. Our named executive officers for 2022 are:

Compensation for our executive officers consists primarily of the following main components: base salary, certain bonus opportunities, and equity incentives. Our executive officers are eligible to participate in our health and welfare benefit plans on the same terms as our other full-time employees.

The following table provides information regarding the total compensation for services rendered in all capacities that was earned by our named executive officers during each of 2021 and 2022, as applicable to each named executive officer.

(1)

The amounts reported represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the stock options and RSUs awarded to our named executive officers during fiscal year 2021 and fiscal year 2022 as applicable, calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 718. Such grant date fair values do not take into account any estimated forfeitures. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the stock options and RSUs reported in this column are set forth in Note 8, Stock-based compensation, of our audited consolidated financial statements included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for these stock options and RSUs and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by our named executive officers upon the exercise of the stock options, or the vesting and settlement of the RSUs, or any sale of the underlying shares of common stock.

The amounts reported for 2021 include: (i) an employer 401(k) plan match of $7,500 for each of Dr. Detheux, Dr. Lager and Mr. Call; (ii) a technology allowance of $1,050 for each of Dr. Detheux, Dr. Lager and Mr. Call; (iii) a family home leave expense reimbursement of $5,376 for Dr. Detheux under our Home Leave Policy, as amended from time to time; (iv) expense reimbursement paid to Dr. Detheux for annual financial and tax services ($35,172) and one-time estate planning services ($60,555), each of which was paid to Dr. Detheux in Euros and converted to U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate of $1.1374 per Euro on December 31, 2022; and (v) a $1,560 commuting allowance for Dr. Lager.
The amounts reported for 2022 include: (i) an employer 401(k) plan match of $12,200 for each of Dr. Detheux, Dr. Lager and Mr. Call; (ii) a technology allowance of $1,800 for each Dr. Detheux, Dr. Lager and Mr. Call; (iii) a family home leave expense reimbursement of $5,437 for Dr. Detheux under our Home Leave Policy, as amended from time to time; (iv) immigration visa expense reimbursement of $6,040 paid to Dr. Detheux; (v) expense reimbursement paid to Dr. Detheux for annual financial and tax services $18,565, which was paid to Dr. Detheux in Euros and converted to U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for 2022 of $1.0544; (vi) a tax gross-up to Dr. Detheux in the amount of $11,715 related to items (iii), (iv) and (v) above; and (vii) a $1,560 commuting allowance for Dr. Lager.

We use base salaries to recognize the experience, skills, knowledge and responsibilities required of all our employees, including our named executive officers. Base salaries are reviewed annually, typically in connection with our annual performance review process, approved by our Board, and adjusted from time to time to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance and experience. For 2022, the annual base salaries for each of Dr. Detheux, Dr. Lager, and Mr. Call were $560,175, $469,100, and $457,600, respectively.

During fiscal year 2022, the named executive officers were eligible for incentive compensation opportunities based upon achievement of both corporate and individual goals determined by the Board, calculated as a target percentage of annual base salary. Each named executive officer may earn more or less than the target amount based on our Company’s and his or her individual performance. For 2022, the bonus target for Dr. Detheux was 60% of his base salary and the bonus target for Dr. Lager and Mr. Call was 40% of their respective base salaries. Dr. Detheux's bonus for 2022 was based entirely on achievement of the Company's corporate objectives for 2022. Dr. Lager and Mr. Call's bonus for 2022 was based 80% on achievement of the Company's corporate objectives for 2022 and 20% on individual performance tied to achievement of functional objectives.

Although we do not have a formal policy with respect to the granting of equity incentive awards to our executive officers, we believe that equity grants directly link the compensation of our executives with our long-term performance, create an ownership culture and help to align the interests of our executives and our stockholders. In addition, we believe that equity grants with a time-based vesting feature promote executive retention because this feature incentivizes our executive officers to remain in our employment during the vesting period. Accordingly, our Board periodically reviews the equity incentive compensation of our named executive officers and may grant equity incentive awards to them from time to time.

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan (the "401(k) Plan") that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax advantaged basis. The 401(k) plan provides for voluntary tax-deferred salary deductions for all employees of up to 100% of their annual compensation, as limited by an annual maximum amount as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company provides a matching contribution of up to 4% (100% of employee contributions up to the first 4% of eligible compensation). The Company contributed approximately $250,000 and $82,000 to the 401(k) Plan for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

All of our named executive officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental and vision insurance plans, in each case in accordance with plan terms and on the same basis as all of our other full-time employees.

We believe the perquisites described in footnote 3 of the Summary Compensation Table above are necessary and appropriate to provide a competitive compensation package to our named executive officers.

We have entered into employment agreements with each of our named executive officers.

In June 2020, we entered into a new employment agreement with Dr. Detheux for the position of Chief Executive Officer, which became effective upon the closing of our IPO. The employment agreement provides for Dr. Detheux’s at-will employment and sets forth his initial base salary and his eligibility for an annual performance bonus based upon assessment by the Board or the Compensation Committee, subject to the terms of any applicable incentive compensation plan that may be in effect from time to time. Dr. Detheux’s annual base salary and annual performance target bonus for 2022 are described above.

Dr. Detheux is subject to our standard confidentiality, assignment, non-solicitation and noncompetition agreement. Dr. Detheux is eligible to receive 50% of his highest annualized base salary paid to him within the two-year period preceding the last day of his employment during the post-employment non-competition period (but for not more than 12 months following the end of his employment) if the Company enforces Dr. Detheux’s non-competition covenant, which we refer to as his garden leave pay. If Dr. Detheux is eligible to receive either the severance amount or the Detheux Change in Control Payment (described below), such payment(s) shall be reduced by the amount of his garden leave pay.

In the event that Dr. Detheux is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, as each term is defined in his employment agreement, and subject to the execution and effectiveness of a separation agreement, including a general release of claims in our favor, he will be entitled to receive 18 months of his then-current base salary. Further, in the event that Dr. Detheux is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, in either case within 12 months after the occurrence of the first event constituting a “change in control”, as defined in his employment agreement, and subject to the execution and effectiveness of a separation agreement, including a general release of claims in our favor, he will be entitled to receive (i) a lump sum cash payment equal to Dr. Detheux’s then-current base salary (or the base salary in effect immediately prior to the change in control, if higher), or the Detheux Change in Control Payment, and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or other stock-based award agreement, accelerated vesting of all time-based stock options and other stock-based awards subject to time-based vesting held by Dr. Detheux, with such awards becoming fully exercisable and nonforfeitable on the later of the date of termination or the effective date of the separation and release of claims agreement.

In June 2020, we entered into a new employment agreement with Dr. Lager for the position of Chief Medical Officer, which became effective upon the closing of our IPO. The employment agreement provides for Dr. Lager’s at-will employment and sets forth her initial base salary, which has subsequently increased as described above, and her eligibility for an annual performance bonus with a target equal to 40% of her base salary based upon assessment by the Board or the Compensation Committee, subject to the terms of any applicable incentive compensation plan that may be in effect from time to time.

Dr. Lager is subject to our standard confidentiality, assignment, non-solicitation and noncompetition agreement. Dr. Lager is eligible to receive 50% of her highest annualized base salary paid to her by the Company within the two-year period preceding the last day of her employment during the post-employment non-competition period (but for not more than 12 months following the end of her employment) if the Company enforces Dr. Lager’s non-competition covenant, which we refer to as her garden leave pay. If Dr. Lager is eligible to receive either the severance amount or the Lager Change in Control Payment (described below), such payment(s) shall be reduced by the amount of her garden leave pay.

In the event that Dr. Lager is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, as each term is defined in her employment agreement, and subject to the execution and effectiveness of a separation agreement, including a general release of claims in our favor, she will be entitled to 12 months of her then-current base salary. Further, in the event that Dr. Lager is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, in either case within 12 months after the occurrence of the first event constituting a change in control, as defined in her employment agreement, and subject to the execution and effectiveness of a separation agreement, including a general release of claims in our favor, she will be entitled to receive (i) a lump sum cash payment equal to Dr. Lager’s then-current base salary (or the base salary in effect immediately prior to the change in control, if higher), or the Lager Change in Control Payment, and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or other stock-based award agreement, accelerated vesting of all time-based stock options and other stock-based awards subject to time-based vesting held by Dr. Lager, with such awards becoming fully exercisable and nonforfeitable on the later of the date of termination or the effective date of the separation and release of claims agreement.

In June 2020, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Call for the position of Chief Operating Officer, effective upon the closing of our IPO. This agreement provides for Mr. Call’s at-will employment and sets forth his initial base salary, which has subsequently increased as described above, and his eligibility for an annual performance bonus with a target equal to 40% of his base salary based upon assessment by the Board or the Compensation Committee, subject to the terms of any applicable incentive

compensation plan that may be in effect from time to time. Mr. Call is subject to our standard confidentiality, assignment, non-solicitation and noncompetition agreement. Mr. Call is eligible to receive 50% of his highest annualized base salary paid to him by the Company within the two-year period preceding the last day of his employment during the post-employment non-competition period (but for not more than 12 months following the end of his employment) if the Company enforces Mr. Call’s non-competition covenant, which we refer to as his garden leave pay. If Mr. Call is eligible to receive either the severance amount or the Call Change in Control Payment (described below), such payment(s) shall be reduced by the amount of his garden leave pay.

In the event that Mr. Call is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, as each term is defined in his employment agreement, and subject to the execution and effectiveness of a separation agreement, including a general release of claims in our favor, he will be entitled to 12 months of his then-current base salary. Further, in the event that Mr. Call is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, in either case within 12 months after the occurrence of the first event constituting a change in control, as defined in his employment agreement, and subject to the execution and effectiveness of a separation agreement, including a general release of claims in our favor, he will be entitled to receive (i) a lump sum cash payment equal to Mr. Call’s then-current base salary (or the base salary in effect immediately prior to the change in control, if higher), or the Call Change in Control Payment, and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or other stock-based award agreement, accelerated vesting of all time-based stock options and other stock-based awards subject to time-based vesting held by Mr. Call, with such awards becoming fully exercisable and nonforfeitable on the later of the date of termination or the effective date of the separation and release of claims agreement.

The following table sets forth information regarding outstanding equity awards held by our named executive officers as of December 31, 2022:

(1)

The option grant is subject to the terms of our 2019 Stock Option and Grant Plan, or the 2019 Plan. One-fourth of the shares subject to the stock option vest on the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the named executive officer’s continuous service relationship with us through such date. Thereafter, 1/48 of the shares subject to the stock option vest on a monthly basis following the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the named executive officer’s continuous service relationship with us through each applicable vesting date. The option was granted on October 1, 2019, in connection with our reorganization and exchange of warrants in iTeos Belgium for stock options in our company.

We believe that, although a portion of the compensation provided to our executive officers and other employees is performance-based, our executive compensation program does not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk taking.

This is primarily due to the fact that our compensation programs are designed to encourage our executive officers and other employees to remain focused on both short-term and long-term strategic goals. As a result, we do not believe that our compensation programs are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

The following is a description of transactions or series of transactions since January 1, 2022, to which we were or will be a party, in which:

Compensation arrangements for our named executive officers and our directors are described elsewhere in this Proxy Statement under “Director Compensation” and “Executive Compensation.”

We have granted stock options to our named executive officers, as more fully described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation.”

As permitted by Delaware law, provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as a director. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and the members of our Board which may require us to indemnify them.

Our Board reviews and approves transactions with directors, officers and holders of 5% or more of our voting securities and their affiliates, each a related party. In connection with our initial public offering, our Board adopted a written related party transactions policy. Pursuant to this policy, the audit committee has the primary responsibility for reviewing and approving or disapproving “related party transactions,” which are transactions between us and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $120,000 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect interest. For purposes of this policy, a related person will be defined as a director, executive officer, nominee for director, or greater than 5% beneficial owner of our common stock, in each case since the beginning of the most recently completed year, and their immediate family members.

The following table sets forth, as of April 18, 2023, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by:

The column entitled “Shares Beneficially Owned” is based on a total of 35,763,421 shares of our common stock outstanding as of April 18, 2023.

Each individual or entity shown on the table has furnished information with respect to beneficial ownership. Except as otherwise indicated below, the address of each officer, director and five percent stockholder listed below is c/o iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., 321 Arsenal Street, Suite 301, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to those securities as well as any shares of common stock that the person has the right to acquire within 60 days of April 18, 2023 through the exercise of stock options or other rights. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding those options for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other

person. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons or entities identified in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them.

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of more than 10% of our equity securities to file reports of holdings and transactions in securities of the Company with the SEC.

Based solely on our review of copies of reports filed pursuant to Section 16(a), or written representations from reporting persons, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, all executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders timely complied with all applicable filing requirements of Section 16(a).

The audit committee is appointed by the Board to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to (1) the integrity of iTeos’ financial statements and financial reporting process and systems of internal controls regarding finance, accounting, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (2) the qualifications, independence, and performance of iTeos’ independent registered public accounting firm, (3) the performance of iTeos’ internal audit function, if any, and (4) other matters as set forth in the charter of the audit committee approved by the Board.

Management is responsible for the preparation of iTeos’ financial statements and the financial reporting process, including its system of internal control over financial reporting and its disclosure controls and procedures. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an audit of iTeos’ financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and issuing a report thereon. The audit committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

In connection with these responsibilities, the audit committee reviewed and discussed with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the audited consolidated financial statements of iTeos for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The audit committee also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the PCAOB’s Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communication with Audit Committees. In addition, the audit committee received written communications from the independent registered public accounting firm confirming their independence as required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm their independence.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements of iTeos be included in iTeos’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, that was filed with the SEC. The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be (1) “soliciting material,” (2) “filed” with the SEC, (3) subject to Regulations 14A or 14C of the Exchange Act, or (4) subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act. This report shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of our other filings under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate it by reference into such filing.

Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of “householding” proxy statements and annual reports. This means that only one copy of our documents, including the annual report to stockholders and proxy statement, may have been sent to multiple stockholders in your household. We will promptly deliver a separate copy of either document to you upon email or oral request to www.envisionreports.com/ITOS, or 1-866-641-4276. If you want to receive separate copies of the proxy statement or annual report to stockholders in the future, or if you are receiving multiple copies and would like to receive only one copy per household, you should contact your bank, broker or other nominee record holder, or you may contact us at the above address and phone number.

A stockholder who would like to have a proposal considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for next year’s annual meeting must submit the proposal in accordance with the procedures outlined in Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act so that it is received by us no later than December 29, 2023. However, if the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is changed by more than 30 days from the date of the previous year’s meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. SEC rules set standards for eligibility and specify the types of stockholder proposals that may be excluded from a proxy statement. Stockholder proposals should be addressed to iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., 321 Arsenal Street, Suite 301, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

If a stockholder wishes to propose a nomination of persons for election to our Board or present a proposal at an annual meeting but does not wish to have the proposal considered for inclusion in our proxy statement and proxy card, our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for such nominations and proposals. Stockholders at an annual meeting may only consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board or by a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely notice in proper form to our Corporate Secretary of the stockholder’s intention to bring such business before the meeting.

The required notice must be in writing and received by our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. However, in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days, or delayed by more than 60 days, from the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice must be so received no earlier than the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (A) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting and (B) the tenth day following the day on which notice of the date of such annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs. For stockholder proposals to be brought before the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the required notice must be received by our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices no earlier than February 14, 2024 and no later than March 15, 2024. Stockholder proposals and the required notice should be addressed to iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., 321 Arsenal Street, Suite 301, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

In addition to satisfying the requirements under the bylaws described in the immediately preceding two paragraphs, to comply with the universal proxy rules under the Exchange Act, any stockholder who intends to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Board’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 14, 2024. However, if the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is changed by more than 30 days from the date of the previous year’s meeting, then such notice must be delivered by the later of (A) the 60th day prior to such annual meeting and (B) the tenth day following the day on which notice of the date of such annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs.

Our Board does not know of any other matters to be brought before the Annual Meeting. If any other matters not mentioned in this proxy statement are properly brought before the meeting, the individuals named in the enclosed proxy intend to use their discretionary voting authority under the proxy to vote the proxy in accordance with their best judgment on those matters.
