Previous wording

In 2021, we licensed from Allist the right to develop and commercialize firmonertinib worldwide, with the exception of greater China, which includes mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Firmonertinib is an investigational, novel, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant-selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that we are developing for the treatment of NSCLC patients across a broader set of EGFRm than are currently served by approved EGFR TKIs. Firmonertinib is currently only approved and commercially distributed by Shanghai Allist Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. (Allist) in China as a first-line therapy to treat classical EGFRm NSCLC. The FDA has not approved firmonertinib for any use. We selected firmonertinib for global development against nonclassical, or uncommon, mutations based on preliminary reductions in tumor size observed in seven out of ten patients in first-line treatment with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations in the ongoing Phase 1b clinical trial, the FAVOUR trial, conducted by Allist in China, and preclinical activity in EGFR P-loop and-alpha-c-helix compressing (PACC) mutations, each a subtype of uncommon mutation. In a subsequent interim data readout from the FAVOUR trial of firmonertinib in first-line patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFRm NSCLC with exon 20 insertion mutations, 79% of patients

In September 2024, we announced positive interim proof-of-concept data from the FURTHER trial of firmonertinib in first-line patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFRm NSCLC with PACC mutations. In this interim readout, 64% of patients (n=14 out of 22 patients) were observed to experience a reduction in tumor size of at least 30% from the baseline in a patient without evidence of progression as measured by RECIST 1.1 criteria, which measurement of reduction is the threshold in this trial for a partial response and for inclusion in determination of the ORR, which is the primary endpoint of this trial. Median DOR had not yet been reached, with 90.9% (n=20/22) of patients with confirmed responses remaining on study. Interim results may not be indicative of final results; however, we believe these interim clinical results underscore firmonertinib’s potential in patients whose tumors contain an uncommon EGFRm.
