OS Therapies Incorporated (“OS Therapies” or the
“Company”) (NYSE-A: OSTX), an Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) and
Immunotherapy research and clinical stage biopharmaceutical
company, today announced the pricing of its initial public offering
of 1,600,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of
$4.00 per share, raising gross proceeds of $6.4 million.
Additionally, the Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day
option to purchase up to an additional 240,000 shares of common
stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and
commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any.
The net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and
commissions, but before estimated expenses of the offering payable
by the Company, are expected to be approximately $6.0 million. The
Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to
advance the clinical development of its product candidates –
OST-HER2 and OST-tADC – and discover and develop new product
candidates, as well as for working capital and other general
corporate purposes.
OS Therapies’ lead product candidate, OST-HER2, is an innovative
immunotherapy using a HER2 bioengineered form of the bacteria
Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) to trigger a strong immune response
against cancer cells expressing HER2. This off-the-shelf treatment
is designed to prevent metastasis, delay recurrence, kill primary
tumors expressing HER2 and increase overall survival. Currently,
the Company has fully enrolled a potentially pivotal Phase IIb
clinical trial in recurred, resected osteosarcoma, dosing 41
patients with OST-HER2 at 21 clinical trial sites across the United
States, with topline data expected in the fourth quarter of 2024
following the release of interim data in June 2024. OST-HER2 has
received Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPDD) from the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA), and Fast Track and Orphan Drug
Designations by the FDA and European Medicines Agency (EMA). OS
Therapies is seeking Breakthrough Therapy Designation for OST-HER2
for osteosarcoma from the FDA based on data from its Phase IIb
clinical trial. Upon any Biologics Licensing Authorization (BLA)
from the FDA for OST-HER2 in osteosarcoma, the Company will be
granted a Priority Review Voucher based upon the RPDD. OST HER2 has
also completed a Phase 1 clinical trial primarily in breast cancer
patients, in addition to strong preclinical data demonstrating
efficacy on a standalone basis and in combination with
HER2-targeting therapeutic antibodies such as Herceptin®.
OS Therapies is also developing OST-tADC, a proprietary
next-generation Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) platform. This
advanced technology incorporates pH-sensitive silicon-based linkers
and coating, trademarked as SiLinkers™, which can release multiple
therapeutic agents selectively within the tumor microenvironment,
which experiences lower pH levels than the rest of the body. This
approach aims to maximize the therapeutic effects while minimizing
damage to healthy cells. OS Therapies has completed initial safety
and efficacy proof of concept in various murine models of
cancer.
The total addressable market for human osteosarcoma is estimated
at $1.72 billion. The global market for ADCs is anticipated to
reach $19.8 billion by 2028, according to data from
MarketsandMarkets.
OS Therapies’ common stock is expected to begin trading on the
NYSE American stock exchange tomorrow, Thursday, August 1, 2024,
under the symbol “OSTX.” The public offering is expected to close
on Friday, August 2, 2024, subject to customary closing
conditions.

About Osteosarcoma
Osteosarcoma is a solid tumor of the bone that predominantly
occurs in children and young adults. It is an extremely challenging
and often aggressive cancer that has particular treatment
challenges due to its location, changing genotypes and high
recurrence rates. Standard treatment includes surgery and
chemotherapy. For patients with metastatic or recurrence after
chemotherapy, there is a significantly poorer prognosis.
