PRINCETON, N.J., March 1, 2023 - PMV Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: PMVP), a precision oncology company pioneering the discovery and development of small molecule, tumor-agnostic therapies targeting p53, today reported financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2022, and provided a corporate update.

The initial PC14586 data have demonstrated clinical proof of concept for PC14586 as a monotherapy to selectively reactivate p53 across multiple tumor types. In alignment with FDA draft guidance on Project Optimus, we continue to enroll additional patients in the PYNNACLE study and intend to provide a comprehensive clinical and regulatory update, including our recommended Phase 2 dose, in the second half of 2023.

-Enrolled the first patient in a combination arm of the PYNNACLE study evaluating PC14586 in combination with KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring a p53 Y220C mutation.

PC14586 is a first-in-class, small molecule, p53 reactivator designed to selectively bind to the crevice present in the p53 Y220C mutant protein, hence, restoring the wild-type, or normal, p53 protein structure and tumor-suppressing function. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Fast Track designation to PC14586 for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have a p53 Y220C mutation. For more information about the Phase 1/2 PYNNACLE trial (PMV-586-101), refer to www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT study identifier NCT04585750).
PMV Pharma is a precision oncology company pioneering the discovery and development of small molecule, tumor-agnostic therapies targeting p53. p53 mutations are found in approximately half of all cancers.

Bringing together leaders in the field to utilize over four decades of p53 biology, PMV Pharma combines unique biological understanding with pharmaceutical development focus.
