"With the recent completion of the last patient visit in our Phase 3 EFZO-FIT study of efzofitimod in pulmonary sarcoidosis, a major form of interstitial lung disease (ILD), we are on track to report topline data in mid-September," said Sanjay S. Shukla, M.D., M.S., President and Chief Executive Officer of aTyr. "This upcoming readout represents a major inflection point for aTyr, our clinical program for efzofitimod in ILD, and the broader sarcoidosis community, and we look forward to sharing the results."

Second Quarter 2025 and Subsequent Period Highlights

Completed the last patient visit in the global pivotal Phase 3 EFZO-FIT study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of efzofitimod in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis. Topline data from the study are expected in mid-September 2025. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 52-week study consisting of three parallel cohorts randomized equally to either 3.0 mg/kg or 5.0 mg/kg of efzofitimod or placebo administered intravenously monthly for a total of 12 doses. The study enrolled 268 patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis across 85 centers in nine countries. The trial design incorporates a forced steroid taper. The primary endpoint of the study is steroid reduction measured as the absolute change from baseline to week 48. Secondary endpoints include measures of sarcoidosis symptoms and lung function. Patients who complete the study and wish to receive treatment with efzofitimod outside of the clinical trial are eligible to participate in an Individual Patient Expanded Access Program.

Announced interim data from the ongoing Phase 2 EFZO-CONNECT study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of efzofitimod in patients with limited or diffuse systemic sclerosis (SSc, or scleroderma)-related ILD (SSc-ILD). This proof-of-concept study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 28-week study consisting of three parallel cohorts randomized 2:2:1 to either 270 mg or 450 mg of efzofitimod or placebo administered intravenously monthly for a total of six doses. Enrollment in the study is ongoing, and the study intends to enroll up to 25 patients at multiple centers in the United States. The interim analysis evaluated skin assessments and serum biomarkers at baseline and week 12 for efzofitimod and placebo patients. Eight patients were evaluated, including five with diffuse and three with limited SSc-ILD. Key findings for efzofitimod-treated patients to date included:

Stable or improved modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS), a key measure of skin fibrosis, for all patients and an improvement of 4 points or greater for three out of four efzofitimod-treated patients with diffuse SSc-ILD, where the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) is a 4 to 6 point improvement at 12 months

Preliminary signals of improvement for inflammatory biomarkers including interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and disease biomarkers Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) and surfactant protein-D (SP-D)

Efzofitimod was generally safe and well tolerated at all doses, with no treatment related serious adverse events

Advanced ATYR0101 to investigational new drug (IND) candidate stage for pulmonary fibrosis. ATYR0101 is a fusion protein derived from a proprietary extracellular domain of aspartyl-tRNA synthetase (DARS) that binds to latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein 1 (LTBP-1) to induce cell death of myofibroblasts, which are key cells responsible for driving the progression of fibrosis. The Company anticipates filing an IND application in the second half of 2026.

Preclinical data generated to date demonstrating ATYR0101’s unique anti-fibrotic mechanism through LTBP-1 were presented in an oral presentation at the American Thoracic Society 2025 Respiratory Innovation Summit

Announced that the Company was added to the Russell 2000 Index and broad market Russell 3000 Index. These additions were a part of the 2025 Russell U.S. Indexes annual reconstitution.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights and Cash Position

Cash & Investment Position: Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale investments as of June 30, 2025, were $83.2 million. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter 2025, the Company raised approximately $30.7 million in gross proceeds from its at-the-market (ATM) offering with Jefferies LLC. The Company believes its cash runway will be sufficient to fund its operations for a period of one year following the Phase 3 EFZO-FIT readout.

R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $15.4 million for the second quarter 2025, which consisted primarily of clinical trial costs for the Phase 3 EFZO-FIT and Phase 2 EFZO-CONNECT studies, manufacturing costs for the efzofitimod program and research and development costs for the efzofitimod and discovery programs.

G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $4.9 million for the second quarter 2025.

About Efzofitimod

Efzofitimod is a first-in-class biologic immunomodulator in clinical development for the treatment of interstitial lung disease (ILD), a group of immune-mediated disorders that can cause inflammation and fibrosis, or scarring, of the lungs. Efzofitimod is a tRNA synthetase derived therapy that selectively modulates activated myeloid cells through neuropilin-2 to resolve inflammation without immune suppression and potentially prevent the progression of fibrosis. aTyr is currently investigating efzofitimod in the global Phase 3 EFZO-FIT study in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis, a major form of ILD, and in the Phase 2 EFZO-CONNECT study in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc, or scleroderma)-related ILD. These forms of ILD have limited therapeutic options and there is a need for safer and more effective, disease-modifying treatments that improve outcomes.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results:

Cash, cash equivalents and investments totaled $158.1 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $79.9 million as of March 31, 2025.

Total revenue was $18.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $25.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in revenue was driven primarily by the completion of our performance obligations in the Bristol Myers Squibb collaboration, the decision not to further develop the CX-904 program in the Amgen agreement, and a decrease in Moderna activities due to Moderna budget considerations.

Total operating expense in the second quarter of 2025 was $19.9 million compared to $33.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of $13.7 million.

Research and development expenses were $13.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $11.9 million compared to the corresponding period of 2024. Reduced research and development expenses were primarily due to a one-time milestone payment of $5M to Immunogen for the first patient dosed in Phase 1 with CX-2051 in Q2 2024, a reduction in CX-904 spend due to program de-prioritization in 2025, and reduced research expenses following the Q1 2025 restructuring.

General and administrative expenses were $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $1.8 million compared to the corresponding period of 2024. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by personnel costs as well as patent and legal expenses.

"FDA’s acceptance of our NDA for ziftomenib represents another important step toward addressing a high unmet need in patients with relapsed or refractory NPM1-mutant AML," said Troy Wilson, Ph.D., J.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Kura Oncology. "As a menin inhibitor, ziftomenib targets a fundamental disease driver in certain genetically defined subsets of AML, and along with our partners at Kyowa Kirin, we are committed to advancing ziftomenib as a potential therapy for patients throughout the continuum of care. With preparations underway for commercialization, upcoming initiation of two registrational trials of ziftomenib in the frontline setting and a strong pipeline to support future growth, we believe Kura is well-positioned to deliver meaningful benefit to patients and long-term value to stakeholders."

Recent Highlights

FDA Priority Review of New Drug Application for ziftomenib with PDUFA target action date of November 30, 2025 – In June 2025, Kura and Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd. (Kyowa Kirin) announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted Kura’s NDA seeking full approval for ziftomenib as a treatment for adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a nucleophosmin 1 mutation (NPM1-m). Ziftomenib is the only menin inhibitor to receive Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) for this indication. The application has been granted Priority Review and assigned a PDUFA target action date of November 30, 2025.
Commercial readiness activities advancing in line with the regulatory review timeline – Pre-launch efforts by medical affairs, market access, patient support, and sales continue. Hiring and onboarding of U.S. field sales team are now complete. Pre-approval information exchange with key stakeholders across the AML ecosystem is ongoing.
Presentation of positive results from the KOMET-001 pivotal trial of ziftomenib in R/R NPM1-m AML at 2025 ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting – The study achieved a complete remission (CR) plus CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh) rate of 23%, an improvement over historical controls in a heavily pretreated patient population with limited survival and few treatment options. Key safety and tolerability measures, including manageable differentiation syndrome, low rates of ziftomenib-related myelosuppression and treatment discontinuation, absence of clinically significant QTc prolongation and minimal drug-drug interactions highlighted a potentially favorable benefit-risk profile for ziftomenib.
Presentation of clinical data from the Phase 1b expansion cohort of KOMET-007 evaluating ziftomenib in combination with intensive chemotherapy (7+3) in newly diagnosed NPM1-m and KMT2A-rearranged AML at 2025 EHA (Free EHA Whitepaper) Congress – High rates of CR and measurable residual disease (MRD) negativity with ziftomenib in combination with intensive chemotherapy in newly diagnosed NPM1-m and KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) AML were reported. Among patients achieving a composite CR, 68% of NPM1-m and 83% of KMT2A-r patients reached MRD-negative status at a median of ~4–5 weeks. At a median follow-up of 25 and 16 weeks, 96% and 88% of patients in the respective cohorts remained alive and on study. Ziftomenib was well tolerated, enabling patients to remain on treatment through consolidation and maintenance, without interruption, dose reduction, or added myelosuppression.
Nomination of next-generation menin inhibitor designed for the treatment of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and menin-dependent cardiometabolic indications – In preclinical models of type 2 diabetes, ziftomenib has been shown to improve glucose control, enhance insulin production, reduce insulin resistance, and selectively induce beta-cell proliferation, supporting menin as a therapeutic target for beta-cell regeneration. Kura has nominated a next-generation menin inhibitor for evaluation in diabetes. Development plans and timelines will be announced in a future update.
Three clinical abstracts from Kura’s farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI) program accepted for presentation at the 2025 ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Congress – The presentations will include the first clinical data on Kura’s lead investigational FTI therapy, KO-2806, in combination with cabozantinib in renal cell carcinoma (Poster #2604P), as well as KO-2806 monotherapy in advanced RAS-mutant solid tumors (Poster #981P). An additional abstract will highlight clinical data from the combination of the FTI tipifarnib and alpelisib in patients with PIK3CA-mutant head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) (Poster #1349P).

The partnership was also highlighted during Veracyte’s earnings call, reinforcing the shared commitment to expanding access to clinically actionable genomic insights in prostate cancer care.

The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines recommend germline genetic testing for patients with metastatic and high-risk localized prostate cancer. Germline findings can influence therapeutic decision-making, including the use of targeted therapies like PARP inhibitors. The integration of Helix’s hereditary cancer test into the Decipher ordering workflow gives physicians a convenient way to access this important information and deliver more personalized care.

"Patients diagnosed with cancer deserve seamless access to genomic insights that can improve their care – not just in academic centers, but wherever they’re treated," said James Lu, M.D., Ph.D., CEO and co-founder of Helix. "Through our work with Veracyte, we’re helping expand access to both germline and transcriptomic insights in a single clinical workflow, so physicians can more easily align care decisions with the latest clinical guidelines."

Understanding a patient’s inherited predisposition to cancer offers a number of benefits. It can inform treatment choices, identify risk for additional cancers, and provide actionable information to at-risk family members. When paired with pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing, providers can also better match treatments to each patient’s genetic profile to improve safety and efficacy.

This collaboration is part of Helix’s broader mission to make precision medicine more accessible and impactful for all patients. Helix currently runs the Helix Research Network, the largest and fastest growing precision clinical research network in the world, where several of their partners have begun launching universal cancer screening programs for patients diagnosed with cancer. With its proprietary Exome+ assay and Sequence Once, Query Often model, Helix delivers high-quality genomic insights at scale, enabling ongoing clinical value that may reduce the need for repeat testing.
