Realigning resources to extend runway to mid-2027

Focus on clinical development ofRP-1664(PLK4 inhibitor) andRP-3467(Polθ ATPase inhibitor), with initial clinical readouts expected beginning in Q3 2025

Exploring partnerships for continued development of Lunre+Camo and other assets

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.&MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 9, 2025--Repare Therapeutics Inc.(“Repare” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: RPTX), a leading clinical-stage precision oncology company, today announced a re-alignment of resources and a re-prioritization of its clinical portfolio to focus on the continued advancement of its Phase 1 clinical programs,RP-1664(PLK4 inhibitor) andRP-3467(PolθATPase inhibitor). Repare also announced its intention to seek partnering opportunities across its portfolio, including for lunresertib and camonsertib (“Lunre+Camo”) prior to any start of pivotal development. The consequent savings of late-stage clinical funding combined with planned cost and headcount reductions are expected to extend Repare’s cash runway into mid-2027.

“While Lunre+Camo demonstrated positive results from our Phase 1 clinical trial, after careful consideration we have decided to progress this program into pivotal trials contingent on securing a strategic partner to fund further development. We are focused on achieving near-term inflection points for our Phase 1 clinical assets,RP-1664andRP-3467, both of which have the potential to address significant unmet patient needs and deliver important catalysts in 2025,” saidLloyd M. Segal, President and Chief Executive Officer of Repare. “Combined with other initiatives, these changes, which we will implement later this quarter, provide the foundation for meaningful value creation.”

Recent Pipeline Progress & Upcoming Milestones of Prioritized Clinical Programs:

RP-1664: First-in-class, highly selective, oral inhibitor of PLK4

Repare is evaluatingRP-1664as a monotherapy in the Phase 1 LIONS clinical trial in adult and adolescent patients with TRIM37-high solid tumors.

Upcoming Expected Milestones:

  • Q3 2025: Initiation of a Phase 1/2 expansion trial in pediatric neuroblastoma
  • Q4 2025: Initial topline safety, tolerability and early efficacy data from the LIONS trial
  • Mid-2026: Trial completion, final trial readout for proof-of-concept from the LIONS trial

RP-3467: Potential best-in-class Polθ ATPase inhibitor

Repare is dosing patients in the Phase 1 POLAR clinical trial evaluatingRP-3467alone and in combination with the poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, olaparib. This trial is enrolling patients with locally advanced or metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer, metastatic breast cancer, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, or pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Upcoming Expected Milestones:

  • Q3 2025: Topline safety, tolerability and early efficacy data from the POLAR trial in monotherapy and in combination with olaparib.

Lunresertib and Camonsertib

Repare recently reported positive efficacy and safety data from the Phase 1 MYTHIC gynecologic expansion clinical trial evaluating the combination of lunresertib and camonsertib (Lunre+Camo) at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with endometrial cancer (EC) and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC). Nearly half of patients with gynecologic cancers maintained progression-free survival (PFS) at 24 weeks, comparing favorably to PFS for current standard of care. Repare intends to seek partnering opportunities for this program as a condition to advancing the program into planned and regulatory-supported pivotal development.

Repare is currently evaluating lunresertib in combination with Debio 0123, a highly selective, brain-penetrant, clinical WEE1 inhibitor, in patients with advanced solid tumors harboringCCNE1amplification orFBXW7orPPP2R1Adeleterious alterations as part of an ongoing 50/50 cost sharing collaboration withDebiopharm.

The Company will not continue to develop lunresertib or camonsertib in other studies, including the ongoing camonsertib non-small cell lung cancer expansion study, absent securing a partnership with a development partner.

Upcoming Expected Milestone:

  • Q2 2025: Enrollment completion of MYTHIC trial evaluating lunresertib in combination with Debio 0123 (WEE1 inhibitor)

Cash Position and Financial Guidance:

Repare ended 2024 with approximately$153 millionin cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, which is anticipated with the implementation of the cost-saving measures announced above to fund the Company’s streamlined operations into mid-2027.
