CAMBRIDGE, Mass. & MONTREAL (BUSINESS WIRE) June 7, 2023 Repare
Therapeutics Inc. ( Repare or the Company ) (Nasdaq: RPTX), a leading clinical-stage precision oncology company, today reported initial proof of concept monotherapy data from its Phase 1 MYTHIC clinical trial evaluating
lunresertib (RP-6306), a first-in-class, oral PKMYT1 inhibitor in molecularly selected advanced solid tumors.
These initial proof of concept results for lunresertib monotherapy show a favorable and distinct tolerability profile and preliminary antitumor activity
that support our development plans for this program. said Maria Koehler, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of Repare. The data demonstrate that lunresertib effectively inhibits PKMYT1 and offers a synthetic lethal combination with
CCNE1 amplification or inactivating mutations in FBXW7 and PPP2R1a. These genetic alterations have previously been considered undruggable and represent a significant unmet medical need. These findings, along with the continued
advancement of the lunresertib program across multiple ongoing combination clinical trials, validate our proprietary STEP2 platform and precision medicine approach.
While early, these promising proof-of-concept data continue to support
our belief in the potential transformative role that lunresertib could play, either alone or in combination with other therapies, in patients with molecularly selected advanced solid tumors, said Lloyd M. Segal, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Repare. We look forward to reporting initial combination data of lunresertib with camonsertib, as well as lunresertib with gemcitabine, in the fourth quarter of this year, while also advancing multiple other trials to further our
understanding of our first-in-class PKMYT1 inhibitor program.
Key Initial Findings from the Phase 1 MYTHIC Clinical Trial:
MYTHIC (NCT04855656) Module 1 is a first-in-human, global, open-label Phase 1
dose-escalation study to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of a novel and potent small molecule PKMYT1 inhibitor, lunresertib. MYTHIC Module 2 will investigate lunresertib in combination with
camonsertib (RP-3500/RG6526), a potent and selective oral inhibitor of ATR developed by Repare and now partnered with Roche (excluding the lunresertib combination), in molecularly selected advanced solid
tumors. As of the data cutoff date of April 28, 2023, 63 patients were enrolled in lunresertib monotherapy Module 1 of the MYTHIC study, which is ongoing and accruing patients.
also currently evaluating lunresertib in combination with gemcitabine in the Phase 1 MAGNETIC study and in combination with FOLFIRI in the Phase 1 MINOTAUR study. Repare is working with Princess Margaret Cancer Center to initiate clinical testing,
as part of an investigator-sponsored trial (IST), of a fourth lunresertib combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel for the treatment of recurrent TP53 mutated ovarian and uterine cancer, with first patient dosing expected this year. The Company
is also collaborating with the Canadian Cancer Trials Group in an ongoing basket Phase 2 IST that is enrolling patients with selected, advanced cancers receiving lunresertib as combination (NCT05605509), and in a second active study that will
evaluate lunresertib in combination with gemcitabine in patients with CDK4/6 inhibitor treated ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (NCT05601440). These studies aim to expand the treatment opportunities for lunresertib to earlier stages of cancer
treatment or additional tumor types.
Company Virtual Webcast Event:
The Company will host a virtual investor webcast with accompanying slides for analysts and investors today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to further discuss the
lunresertib program, including initial proof-of-concept monotherapy data from MYTHIC and an update on ongoing combination clinical trials.
To access the call, please dial (877) 870-4263 (U.S. and Canada) or (412)
317-0790 (international) at least 10 minutes prior to the start time and ask to be joined to the Repare Therapeutics call. A live video webcast will be available in the Investor section of the Company s
website at https://ir.reparerx.com/news-and-events/events. A webcast replay will also be archived for at least 30 days.
About Repare Therapeutics SNIPRx Platform
Repare s SNIPRx platform is a genome-wide CRISPR-based screening approach that utilizes
proprietary isogenic cell lines to identify novel and known synthetic lethal gene pairs and the corresponding patients who are most likely to benefit from the Company s therapies based on the genetic profile of their tumors. Repare s
platform enables the development of precision therapeutics in patients whose tumors contain one or more genomic alterations identified by SNIPRx screening, in order to selectively target
those tumors in patients most likely to achieve clinical benefit from resulting product candidates.
