Prelude Therapeutics Presents Preclinical Data from Development Candidate, PRT13722, a First-in-Class, Orally Bioavailable, Potent and Highly Selective KAT6A Degrader at American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2026

On April 20, 2026 Prelude Therapeutics Incorporated (Nasdaq: PRLD), a precision oncology company, reported the presentation of new preclinical data from its lead development candidate, PRT13722. PRT13722 is being developed for the treatment of hormone receptor positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2-) breast cancer (BC). Based on preclinical data, we believe PRT13722 is a highly differentiated, first-in-class, orally bioavailable, potent and highly-selective KAT6A degrader.

"These preclinical data further strengthen our hypothesis that developing a highly selective degrader specifically targeting KAT6A has the potential for further improvements of efficacy and importantly an improved hematological safety profile. We believe the efficacy and safety profile of PRT13722 will, in turn, enable meaningful combination approaches to existing standards of care," stated Peggy Scherle, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Prelude. "We remain on track to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for PRT13722 in the middle of this year and, pending clearance, enter the clinic in the second half of 2026."

"There remains a significant unmet need for new treatment options to further improve the standard of care in breast cancer," stated Edith A. Perez, M.D., Professor Emeritus at Mayo Clinic and strategic clinical advisor to Prelude. "New agents that show potential for relevant clinical efficacy and improved tolerability could enable alternative treatment strategies and novel combinations across multiple lines of therapy. It is important to follow the science as these promising new agents prepare to enter the clinic, including PRT13722."

Details on the poster presentation are as follows:

Title: First-in-Class potent and selective oral KAT6A degrader development candidate, PRT13722, drives complete tumor regressions as a monotherapy with an improved preclinical hematological safety profile.

Abstract Control Number: 7335
Session Title: Proximity-Induced Drug Discovery 2
Session Start Time: 4/21/2026 2:00 PM PT
Location: Poster Section 15

Summary:

PRT13722 is a highly differentiated, first-in-class, orally bioavailable, potent and highly selective KAT6A degrader development candidate.
PRT13722, by degrading KAT6A, drives more complete disruption of KAT6A regulatory pathways than dual KAT6A/B inhibitors, resulting in more robust depth and breadth of preclinical efficacy in HR+/HER2- breast cancer.
PRT13722 drives durable complete tumor regressions in HR+/HER2- xenograft models (both endocrine therapy (ET) sensitive and experienced) at well-tolerated doses, as a monotherapy.
PRT13722 is synergistic with ET, CDK4/6 inhibitors, and PI3Kα inhibitors while maintaining monotherapy and combination activity across HR+ BC models, including estrogen receptor 1 mutated and acquired therapy-resistant cancer cells.
PRT13722 has an improved preclinical hematological safety profile compared to prifetrastat, which may enable combinations with standard of care agents in HR+ BC.
PRT13722 is on track for IND filing in mid-2026.

Highly selective KAT6A oral degrader program
KAT6 is an emerging and recently validated target in the treatment of ER+ breast cancer. Prelude discovered and is developing first-in-class, highly potent, highly selective and orally bioavailable KAT6A selective degraders. PRT13722 remains on track for an IND filing in mid-2026 and subject to clearance, with Phase 1 study initiation planned in the 2nd half of 2026. Prelude believes that selectively degrading KAT6A has the potential for improved efficacy, tolerability and combinability with other agents relative to non-selective inhibitors of KAT6A/B.

The Company presented initial preclinical data supporting this hypothesis at the AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) Annual Meeting 2025. The presentation can be found at Publications – Prelude Therapeutics.

Additional AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) Presentation
On April 18, 2026, Prelude’s Sr. Director of Biology and Pharmacology, Koichi Ito, Ph.D. provided a lecture during an educational session entitled: ED08 – Chemistry to the Clinic Part 1 of 4: Next-Level Conjugates: Transforming Targeted Therapies. The title of the presentation is: "Beyond Conventional Payloads: Unlocking New Therapeutic Landscapes with Targeted Protein Degrader-Antibody Conjugates (DACs)"

PharmaMar’s Zepzelca® (lurbinectedin) and atezolizumab (Tecentriq®) has obtained another three approvals as first-line maintenance therapy for small cell lung cancer

On April 20, 2026 PharmaMar (MSE:PHM) reported that the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) in Singapore have granted approval for Zepzelca (lurbinectedin) in combination with atezolizumab (Tecentriq) as a first line maintenance treatment for adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), whose disease has not progressed after first-line induction therapy with atezolizumab, carboplatin and etoposide.

The approvals are based on the results from the Phase 3 IMforte[i]trial.

PharmaMar’s partner in Australia and Singapore, Specialised Therapeutics Asia Pte, Ltd (STA), will market and commercialize the product.

These approvals were obtained under the Orbis Project, an initiative of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Oncology Center of Excellence, designed to provide a framework for concurrent submission and review of oncology products among international partners. As of today, this treatment is approved in a total of 13 countries: the US, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Uruguay, Peru, Paraguay, Ecuador, Israel, Taiwan, Australia, Singapore and Dominican Republic.

PharmaMar also received a recommendation for approval from the European Medicines Agency in March. The European Commission will now decide on the marketing authorization in accordance with the established procedure.

Pasithea Therapeutics Announces Grant of Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPDD) by FDA to PAS-004 for Treatment of Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1)

On April 20, 2026 Pasithea Therapeutics Corp. (NASDAQ: KTTA) ("Pasithea" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing PAS-004, a next-generation macrocyclic MEK inhibitor, reported that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Rare Pediatric Disease Designation to PAS-004 for treatment of Neurofibromatosis type-1 (NF1).

The FDA grants RPDD for serious or life-threatening diseases in which the serious or life-threatening manifestations primarily affect individuals aged from birth to 18 years and affect fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. There are approximately 115,000 individuals in the U.S living with NF1.

Under the FDA’s Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher program, a sponsor who receives an approval of a new drug application (NDA) or biologics license application (BLA) for a rare pediatric disease may be eligible for a Priority Review Voucher ("PRV") which can be redeemed to obtain priority review for a subsequent marketing application for a different product. The PRV may be sold or transferred to another sponsor. In the last 12 months, disclosed PRV sales have ranged from $150–$205 million.

"We are pleased to have received rare pediatric disease designation from the U.S. FDA for our PAS-004 program for patients with NF1," said Dr. Tiago Reis Marques, chief executive officer of Pasithea. "This designation for PAS-004 reinforces the potential of PAS-004 to address this serious condition."

PAS-004 has so far been granted the following FDA regulatory designations: Orphan Drug Designation, Fast Track Designation and Rare Pediatric Disease Designation.

The Company is currently conducting a Phase 1/1b multicenter, open-label, dose escalation trial of PAS-004 in adult participants with symptomatic, inoperable, incompletely resected, or recurrent NF1-PN (NCT06961565).

About NF1- PN
Plexiform neurofibromas (PN) are tumors originating from the nerve sheath that grow through and around nerves and may involve multiple nerve branches. Thirty to fifty percent (30-50%) of patients with NF1 will harbor PNs, which can undergo malignant transformation. PN-related morbidities are primarily caused by the direct impact of the tumor on surrounding structures and can be life-threatening when they compress vital organs or when they become malignant.
