"objective," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "ongoing," or the negative of these terms, or other comparable
terminology intended to identify statements about the future. Forward-looking statements contained in these materials include, but are not limited to, statements about our product development activities, including our expectations around the ongoing

Targeting Myc-driven Tumors and
Their Addiction to Protein Translation GSPT1 is a key regulator and vulnerability of Myc-induced translational addiction To sustain growth, Myc-driven tumors are addicted to protein translation Myc regulates the expression of key genes related to
protein translation, including the master regulator 4EBP1 and eIF4E This addiction to protein translation creates a dependency to the translation termination factor GSPT1 a degron-containing protein GSPT1 MGDs exploit this vulnerability by:
Disrupting protein translation output Reducing Myc-oncogenic signaling Myc hijacks the cellular protein translation machinery creating a vulnerability to GSPT1
