About NDV-01

NDV-01 is a sustained-release, intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel (Gem/Doce), in development for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. It is designed to enable Gem/Doce bladder retention and gradual drug release over 10 days. The formulation creates a soft matrix that enhances local exposure while minimizing systemic toxicity. The NDV-01 formulation is a ready to use, convenient to administer in-office in less than 10 minutes, and does not require anesthesia or specialized equipment. It is protected by patents through 2038.

About the Phase 2 Study

The Phase 2 study (NCT06663137) is an open-label, single-arm, single-center study evaluating the safety and efficacy of NDV-01 in patients with HG-NMIBC. Patients are treated with NDV-01 in a biweekly induction phase, follow by monthly maintenance for up to one year, with regular assessments via cystoscopy, cytology, and biopsy, as indicated. The primary efficacy endpoints are safety and complete response rate (CRR) at 12 months, and secondary efficacy endpoints are duration of response (DOR) and event free survival (EFS).

About NMIBC

NMIBC represents 75-80% of all bladder cancer cases and is associated with high recurrence (50–80% over 5 years). With over 744,000 prevalent cases in the U.S. and limited treatment options, the market opportunity is significant. NDV-01 has the potential to serve as a frontline or salvage therapy and could be applicable across multiple NMIBC subtypes.

"We are pleased to share these initial data in frontline NSCLC patients showing silevertinib’s activity against a broad spectrum of 35 distinct non-classical EGFR mutations," said Mark Velleca, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Black Diamond Therapeutics. "We are particularly encouraged by the CNS activity of silevertinib in treating NSCLC patients with brain metastases, as published data clearly demonstrate that CNS metastases are a key factor in early disease progression for NCM NSCLC patients treated with second- and third-generation EGFR-TKIs. We also believe that silevertinib is uniquely positioned as a potential treatment for patients with newly diagnosed EGFR-altered GBM, and plan to initiate a randomized Phase 2 trial in the first half of 2026, while PFS data matures in our Phase 2 NSCLC study and we continue our partnering discussions."

Silevertinib Phase 2 1L NSCLC Initial Clinical Results and Program Update

43 frontline NSCLC patients harboring a broad spectrum of 35 distinct non-classical EGFR mutations were enrolled, including 16 patients with brain metastases (7 of whom had measurable CNS target lesions). All patients were enrolled at a 200mg oral daily dose of silevertinib. Efficacy and safety were assessed with a November 3, 2025 data cutoff; median follow-up time as of this date was 7.2 months and the study remains ongoing.

Key data highlights include:

For the 43 patients enrolled, preliminary efficacy data is as follows:

25 confirmed partial responses, 1 confirmed complete response
60% Objective Response Rate (ORR by RECIST 1.1)
86% CNS ORR (by RANO-BM)
91% disease control rate (DCR)

Initial duration of treatment data:

29 patients remain on therapy (5/29 after progression), longest ongoing for >19 months

Summary of safety data:

No new safety signals observed
Adverse events (AEs) experienced by a majority of patients include rash, stomatitis, diarrhea and paronychia
AEs were managed with standard supportive care and dose interruptions/reductions without compromising response depth or durability to date

The Company expects to present updated results from the Phase 2 NSCLC trial, including Duration of Response (DOR) and Progression-free Survival (PFS) data in both the recurrent (83 patients) and frontline (43 patients) settings, at a medical meeting in the second quarter of 2026. Black Diamond continues to explore potential partnerships to advance silevertinib into pivotal development.

"These highly encouraging data speak to the potential of silevertinib to be the treatment of choice for frontline NSCLC patients with the full spectrum of non-classical EGFR mutations" said Sergey Yurasov, M.D., Ph.D., Black Diamond’s Chief Medical Officer. "We are struck by the compelling CNS response rate, which may translate to prolonged durability of response for patients with CNS metastases. Based on these data, and promising Phase 0/1 and Phase 1 GBM results, we are preparing to initiate a randomized Phase 2 trial of silevertinib in newly diagnosed GBM patients, one of the highest unmet needs in oncology."

GBM Program Update and Phase 2 Plans
Approximately 50% of patients with glioblastoma (GBM) present with an oncogenic EGFR alteration that can be targeted by silevertinib; each year approximately 7,000 patients in the U.S. are diagnosed with GBM harboring these EGFR alterations.

"Prior attempts to treat EGFR-altered GBM patients have been limited by poor brain penetrance of targeted therapies and/or lack of potency of these therapies on the full spectrum of EGFR alterations" said Elizabeth Buck, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Black Diamond. "Based on encouraging CNS activity demonstrated by silevertinib across multiple trials, and its preclinical potency on all EGFR alterations found in GBM, we believe that silevertinib has the potential to be the first targeted therapy for these patients."

Black Diamond plans to initiate a randomized Phase 2 trial in newly diagnosed GBM patients in the first half of 2026, with preliminary data expected in 2028.

Key trial highlights include:

Expected to enroll approximately 150 newly diagnosed patients, randomized to receive TMZ (control arm) or silevertinib + TMZ (experimental arm)
Initial focus will be on EGFRvIII-positive patients (approximately 30% of GBM) who are MGMT-negative (unmethylated)
Randomization and treatment will begin after patients have had their surgical resection and radiation
Primary endpoint is PFS (RANO by Blinded Independent Committee Review), with an interim analysis; secondary endpoint is overall survival (OS)
Trial will be governed by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC)

Updated Financial Guidance

Black Diamond previously reported cash, cash equivalents and investments of approximately $135.5 million as of September 30, 2025, which the Company now believes is sufficient to fund its anticipated operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second half of 2028.
Financial guidance assumes Black Diamond funds the Phase 2 trial of silevertinib in ND GBM and a potential partner funds pivotal development in NSCLC. Financial guidance does not assume receipt of potential development milestones from the Company’s partnership with Servier Pharmaceuticals LLC for BDTX-4933 (now S241656).

Conference Call Information

Black Diamond will host a conference call and webcast on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, at 8:00 AM ET to discuss the preliminary Phase 2 data for silevertinib in 1L NSCLC and plans for a Phase 2 trial of silevertinib in GBM. The webcast may be accessed online here or by visiting the Events page in the Investors section of the Company’s website at www.blackdiamondtherapeutics.com.

A replay of the webcast will be available for 30 days on the Investors section of Black Diamond’s website.

Crinetics Announces First Patient Dosed in Phase 1/2 Trial Evaluating CRN09682 for the Treatment of Neuroendocrine Tumors and Other Somatostatin Receptor 2-Expressing Tumors

On December 3, 2025 Crinetics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRNX) reported the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 1/2 study evaluating CRN09682 in patients with metastatic or locally advanced somatostatin receptor type 2 (SST2)-positive neuroendocrine tumors and other SST2-expressing solid tumors. CRN09682 is the lead candidate from Crinetics’ proprietary nonpeptide drug conjugate (NDC) platform, which leverages the company’s expertise in GPCR drug discovery and small molecule design to develop a pipeline of modular targeted therapies for endocrine and endocrine-related tumors.

"We developed CRN09682 to address the need for a more efficacious, safer, and convenient targeted therapy for patients with SST2-expressing tumors," said Stephen Betz, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer and Co-Founder of Crinetics. "Dosing the first patient in the Phase 1/2 study marks a major milestone for CRN09682 and our NDC platform as a whole. CRN09682 is the first clinical exploration of this new modality, which we believe has the potential to unlock a new generation of receptor-targeted therapies to treat tumors with precision."

CRN09682 was designed to bind selectively and with high potency to SST2-expressing tumor cells, promoting rapid receptor internalization and linker cleavage to release a potent cytotoxic payload directly within the tumor. This targeted approach is intended to concentrate treatment at the tumor site, by optimizing tumor penetration and limiting systemic exposure and related toxicities. NDCs are manufactured by traditional chemical synthesis methods, eliminating manufacturing constraints and specialized handling required by most antibody drug conjugates and radiopharmaceuticals.

The Phase 1/2 BRAVESST2 trial is a first-in-human, open-label, dose-escalation study with a dose expansion phase designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of CRN09682. The Phase 1 portion will enroll patients in escalating dose cohorts to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for the expansion phase. Phase 2 will further evaluate and characterize CRN09682 in selected SST2-expressing tumor types. Up to 150 participants are expected to be enrolled across both phases. Eligible patients must have metastatic or locally advanced disease progression following standard therapies and SST2-expressing tumors confirmed by somatostatin receptor imaging.

ABOUT CRN09682

CRN09682 is an investigational, first-in-class, non-radioactive, nonpeptide drug conjugate (NDC) linking a somatostatin receptor 2 (SST2) agonist with the cytotoxic drug monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) via a spacer and a cleavable linker for the treatment of neuroendocrine tumors and other solid tumors that express SST2. The ligand on the CRN09682 binds to SST2 on the tumor cell surface and is internalized into the cell whereby enzymes cleave the MMAE and release it within the cell. MMAE is known to cause microtubule disruption leading to cell arrest and death. The NDC approach is intended to enhance tumor penetration and intracellularly release a potent anti-tumor agent, while minimizing systemic exposure and associated toxicities. Additionally, NDCs are manufactured by traditional chemical synthesis methods, avoiding the limitations of fermentation, bioconjugation, and heterogeneous manufacturing methods required by most antibody drug conjugates. NETs are generally incurable when metastatic, regardless of tumor grade. Overall survival rates vary significantly by stage, grade, age at diagnosis, primary site, and time period of diagnosis.
