About Orum’s GSPT1 Platform Using the TPD² Approach

Orum’s GSPT1 platform uses the Company’s unique Dual-Precision Targeted Protein Degradation (TPD²) approach to build novel targeted protein degraders combined with the precise tumor cell delivery mechanisms of antibodies to generate innovative, first-in-class, cell-specific TPD for the treatment of cancer. The company has developed new molecular glue degrader payloads to specifically degrade an intracellular target protein within cancer cells via the E3 ubiquitin ligase pathway. Conjugated to antibodies, the payloads are designed to be delivered specifically to cancer cells and degrade the intracellular target protein GSPT1 and cause tumor cell death.

Regeneron Presents New Data at ASH from Advancing Hematology Pipeline across Multiple Blood Cancers and Disorders

On November 3, 2022 Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

"We’ve made significant strides toward developing a comprehensive hematology portfolio that has the potential to address diverse and difficult-to-treat blood cancers and blood disorders," said L. Andres Sirulnik, M.D., Ph.D., Senior Vice President, Translational and Clinical Sciences, Hematology at Regeneron. "Our ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) presentations not only showcase some of the many modalities we’re exploring – which includes monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies, gene modifying technologies, and siRNA inhibition – but also the depth of research we’re conducting in support of our pipeline."

Notable Regeneron blood cancer presentations at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) include the first interim data from the Phase 2 ELM-2 study of odronextamab (CD20xCD3) in relapsed/refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL) and R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which will be shared in two oral sessions. Updated Phase 1/2 data will also be presented for linvoseltamab (REGN5458; BCMAxCD3 bispecific antibody) in patients with heavily pre-treated multiple myeloma. Based on these findings, a recommended dose was selected for the Phase 2 portion of the linvoseltamab trial.

Additionally, first clinical data from two Phase 2 studies evaluating pozelimab (C5 antibody) in combination with Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s cemdisiran (siRNA C5 inhibitor) in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare blood disorder, will be shared.

Investor Webcast Information

About Regeneron in Hematology
At Regeneron, we’re applying more than three decades of biology expertise with our proprietary VelociSuite technologies to develop medicines for patients with diverse blood cancers and rare blood disorders.

Our blood cancer research is focused on bispecific antibodies that are being investigated both as monotherapies and in combination with each other and emerging therapeutic modalities. Together, they provide us with unique combinatorial flexibility to develop customized and potentially synergistic cancer treatments.

Our research and collaborations to develop potential treatments for rare blood disorders include explorations in antibody medicine, gene editing and gene-knockout technologies, and investigational RNA-approaches focused on depleting abnormal proteins or blocking disease-causing cellular signaling.

If you are interested in learning more about our clinical trials, please contact us ([email protected] or 844-734-6643) or visit our clinical trials website.

About Regeneron’s VelocImmune Technology
Regeneron’s VelocImmune technology utilizes a proprietary genetically engineered mouse platform endowed with a genetically humanized immune system to produce optimized fully human antibodies. When Regeneron’s co-Founder, President and Chief Scientific Officer George D. Yancopoulos was a graduate student with his mentor Frederick W. Alt. in 1985, they were the first to envision making such a genetically humanized mouse, and Regeneron has spent decades inventing and developing VelocImmune and related VelociSuite technologies. Dr. Yancopoulos and his team have used VelocImmune technology to create approximately one in five of all original, FDA-approved or authorized fully human monoclonal antibodies. This includes REGEN-COV (casirivimab and imdevimab), Dupixent (dupilumab), Libtayo (cemiplimab-rwlc), Praluent (alirocumab), Kevzara (sarilumab), Evkeeza (evinacumab-dgnb) and Inmazeb (atoltivimab, maftivimab and odesivimab-ebgn).

The study utilized a combination of GT Biopharma’s investigational GTB-3650, a CD33 targeting Tri-specific Killer Engager (TriKE), and Fate Therapeutics’ multiplexed-engineered, iPSC-derived, CAR NK cells targeting the α3 domain of MICA and MICB. Preclinical data to be presented demonstrate that iPSC-derived, MICA/B-targeted CAR NK cells induced potent activity against the AML cell line HL60, and that further enhancement of activity was achieved in combination with GTB-3650 through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.

About VONJO (pacritinib)
Pacritinib is an oral kinase inhibitor with activity against wild type Janus Associated Kinase 2 (JAK2), mutant JAK2V617F form, IRAK1, ACVR1 (ALK2) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), which contribute to signaling of a number of cytokines and growth factors that are important for hematopoiesis and immune function. Myelofibrosis is often associated with dysregulated JAK2 signaling. At clinically relevant concentrations, pacritinib does not inhibit JAK1.

VONJO is indicated for the treatment of adults with intermediate or high-risk primary or secondary (post-polycythemia vera or post-essential thrombocythemia) myelofibrosis with a platelet count below 50 × 109/L. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on spleen volume reduction. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s). CTI is conducting the Phase 3 PACIFICA study of VONJO in patients with myelofibrosis and severe thrombocytopenia as a post-marketing requirement.
