- Topline Data from Phase 2b clinical trial of OST-HER2 in
Osteosarcoma expected to be released in December 2024
OS Therapies, Inc. (NYSE-A: OSTX) (“OS Therapies” or “the
Company”), a clinical-stage cancer immunotherapy and antibody drug
conjugate biotechnology company, today reported financial results
for the third quarter of 2024 ended September 30, 2024 and provided
a business update.
“The third quarter was pivotal for OS Therapies as we completed
our initial public offering and finished dosing the final patient
enrolled in our Phase 2b clinical trial of OST-HER2 in resected,
recurrent osteosarcoma,” said Paul Romness, MHP, Chairman & CEO
of OS Therapies. “We are now looking forward to releasing topline
data in December and then engaging with the FDA regarding getting
this potentially life-saving cancer immunotherapy to patients that
have no other potential treatment options as quickly as
possible.”
OS Therapies’ lead product candidate, OST-HER2, is a cancer
immunotherapy biologic drug candidate comprised of HER2
bioengineered form of the bacteria Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) that
infects HER2 presenting cancer cells and triggers 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. The
Company has fully enrolled and finished treating all patients in 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. 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 in
active discussions with FDA regarding Breakthrough Therapy
Designation for OST-HER2. 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®.
Third Quarter Corporate Highlights:
- Completed treatment phase for Phase 2b clinical trial of
OST-HER2 in resected, recurrent osteosarcoma
- Accepted into Johnson & Johnson – JLABS
- IPO: NYSE-A: OSTX
Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter:
The Company is a pre-revenue biotechnology company. The Company
anticipates beginning to generate revenue through the sale of a
priority review voucher it expects to be issued by FDA upon
approval of its rare pediatric disease designated drug candidate
OST-HER2 and licensing rights to its products and product
candidates as they achieve upcoming de-risking clinical and
regulatory milestones.
Loss from Operations:
The Company recorded a net operating loss of $2.875 million in
the third quarter of 2024 compared to an operating loss of $2.006
million in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in net loss was
largely due to the expenses associated with the initial public
offering. Net loss per share in the third quarter of 2024 was $0.18
on 15.897 million weighted average shares outstanding compared to
the third quarter of 2023 where the Company delivered a loss of
$0.38 per share on 5.340 million weighted average shares
outstanding.
