Internal Pipeline Highlights
Current report
Positive Phase 2 results from ongoing TUPELO trial of REC-4881 in FAP highlight activity across GI tract and on larger polyps
Current report
FAP is a genetically defined driver of GI cancer, affecting >50,000 patients in the US and EU5 who face major surgeries and life-long surveillance with no approved therapies, representing a potential $15 billion opportunity, based on Company estimates. Among the approximately 35,000 post-colectomy patients, upper GI disease represents the highest unmet need in FAP, due to risks of bleeding and perforation from polyp removal, high complication and morbidity rates from surgery, and higher cancer risk.
Current report
REC-4881, a potential first-in-class oral therapy granted FDA Orphan Drug and Fast Track designations, is designed to address both Wnt/β-catenin initiation and MAPK evolution pathways. The opportunity was identified through unbiased phenotypic screening using Recursion’s proprietary AI foundation models, which revealed MEK1/2 inhibition as a potential way to reverse cellular phenotypes associated with APC loss, a previously unappreciated synthetic rescue relationship.
Current report
On November 2, Recursion announced further positive data from its ongoing Phase 1b/2 TUPELO trial of REC-4881, an investigational, oral MEK1/2 inhibitor in development for FAP. These data were presented by Lisa Boardman, M.D., Professor of Medicine at Mayo Clinic, in a presidential plenary session at The Collaborative Group of the Americas on Inherited Gastrointestinal Cancer (CGA-IGC) Annual Meeting in Denver, Colorado.
Current report
•Deep, durable reductions in total polyp burden, strengthened in the expanded adult FAP population (18+): After 12 weeks of REC-4881 (4 mg QD), 87% of patients (13 of 15) had a reduction in total polyp burden, with a 47% median reduction; approximately 1 in 3 achieved reductions of ≥65%. Twelve weeks after stopping treatment, 85% of evaluable patients (11 of 13) remained below baseline.
Current report
•Activity across the upper and lower GI tract, including near-clearance: After 12 weeks of treatment, median polyp burden reductions were 55% in the upper GI and 50% in the lower GI, supporting REC-4881’s potential as a single oral therapy to address FAP across the GI tract.
Current report
•Upper GI, the area of greatest unmet need in FAP (results first reported Oct. 15): 92% of patients (12 of 13) had reductions after 12 weeks of treatment, with two patients achieving ≥98% reductions; half (6 of 12) improved by at least one Spigelman stage; and 92% (11 of 12) remained below baseline 12 weeks after stopping treatment.
Current report
•New lower GI results highlight breadth of activity: 9 of 11 patients (82%) with measurable lower GI polyp burden at baseline had reductions after 12 weeks of treatment, with a 50% median reduction and 1 in 3 achieving ≥65%; 70% of evaluable patients remained below baseline 12 weeks after stopping treatment.
Current report
•New analysis shows substantial reductions in larger, higher-risk polyps: 6 of 8 patients with polyps >5 mm at baseline had fewer of these polyps after 12 weeks of treatment. Four achieved reductions of ≥80%, including two whose counts fell from more than 90 polyps to one. Six of eight remained below their baseline count 12 weeks after stopping treatment.
Current report
•No new safety signals observed: Favorable chronic dosing safety profile. The highest-grade treatment-related adverse event was Grade 1 or 2 in 21 of 26 patients (81%) and Grade 3 in four patients (15%); one patient had no TRAEs. No Grade 4 or 5 TRAEs, and no additional discontinuations since the previous data cutoff.
Current report
The Company anticipates initiating a registrational trial in the second half of 2027, pending ongoing FDA discussions, and will provide additional details later this year.
Current report
Early data from the Phase 1 dose-escalation portion of DAHLIA, our ongoing open-label Phase 1/2 study of REC-1245, show the following (data cutoff: August 21, 2026):
Current report
REC-1245 is a potential first-in-class oral molecular glue designed to exploit a synthetic-lethal vulnerability in cancers by degrading RBM39, a splicing factor that regulates genes involved in DNA repair and stress response. The Recursion platform contributed each of the three core elements of the program: the target, the molecule and the initial hypotheses on which patients are most likely to benefit. The target emerged from Recursion’s platform, which found that degrading RBM39 mimics the loss of CDK12, while sparing CDK13-associated liabilities. REC-1245 was identified within 18 months after screening only 204 compounds using Recursion’s design platform. The same platform-derived biology pointed to tumors intrinsically primed by replication stress and reliance on accurate splicing, including hard-to-treat cancers such as endometrial, hepatocellular and ovarian cancers and transcriptionally driven tumors.
Current report
•Three partial responses per RECIST 1.1 criteria (2 confirmed, 1 unconfirmed) in heavily pretreated patients with endometrial cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma, all at doses of 45 mg once daily (QD) or higher, with a disease control rate of 91.7% at those doses (n=12).
Current report
•Recursion has selected 45 mg QD for exploratory expansion cohorts, including endometrial cancer, where limited second-line treatments are approved; at the 45 mg QD dose (n=10), no dose-limiting toxicities or treatment-related serious adverse events were observed, and treatment-related adverse events were predominantly Grade 1 or 2. Most frequent TRAEs were Grade 1 or Grade 2 fatigue and anemia (30% each).
Current report
•Preliminary dose expansion data in endometrial cancer are expected in the second half of 2027. Dose escalation will also continue in other solid tumor indications.
Current report
As announced in October 2026, given the promising data in REC-4881 and REC-1245, Recursion plans to continue to focus resources on its high-impact partnerships and internal programs including REC-4881 (MEK1/2 - familial adenomatous polyposis), REC-1245 (RBM39 - endometrial cancer and other solid tumors), REC-4539 (LSD1 - solid tumors and hematology), REC-7735 (PI3Kα H1047R - solid tumors) and REC-102 (ENPP1 - hypophosphatasia). Recursion intends to pursue partnership opportunities to advance REC-617 (CDK7) and REC-3565 (MALT1).

Partnered Discovery Highlights Recursion’s 9th Milestone Achieved in Past Two Years
Current report
Sanofi options potential first-in-class immunology development candidate
Current report
Sanofi has optioned the first development candidate from the two companies’ multi-program research collaboration. The candidate has now been added to Sanofi’s development pipeline and is expected to enter Phase 1 clinical trials in 2027, with Sanofi funding and leading further development and commercialization to advance the program toward patients.
Current report
The option triggered a $10 million milestone payment to Recursion, bringing total upfront and milestone payments achieved from Sanofi under the collaboration to $144 million; Recursion is eligible for more than $300 million in additional milestones under the program, with double digit royalties on net product sales, if approved.
Current report
The potential first-in-class oral small molecule was designed to achieve a differentiated profile against a challenging dual target implicated in inflammatory disease. Optimizing for this target pair required navigating complex and competing chemistry constraints to achieve the desired balance of drug-like properties. The candidate was delivered by the combination of Recursion’s integrated AI-enabled drug design platform and small-molecule chemistry capabilities with Sanofi’s deep expertise in drug discovery and immunology. Recursion applied multiple computational design approaches across iterative cycles of prediction, chemical design, synthesis, and experimental validation to rapidly explore and optimize a complex chemical space.
Current report
With the first development candidate optioned, the collaboration has now achieved six progress-based milestones across five programs. Additional programs across the collaboration continue to advance. Over the next 12 months, other programs in the joint portfolio have the potential to reach development candidate and other progress-based milestones.

Real estate footprint optimization:
Current report
As part of the streamlining of our operations ,which includes the rationalization of facilities and office locations, we continue to align our real estate footprint with our current operating needs. The Company has taken several steps during the three months ended September 30, 2026, including the signing of three subleases related to portions of our Salt Lake City headquarters and our Toronto office helping to decrease our total costs. Additionally, we signed a lease extension for portions of the Company’s leased office and laboratory space in Salt Lake City, Utah. This included achieving a reduction in our monthly fixed rent costs for these spaces.
Current report
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the increase in revenue compared to the prior period was primarily due to our Sanofi partnership, for which the Company achieved a $10.0 million milestone for an immunology small molecule development candidate.
Current report
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, Recursion revised its research and development breakout in light of the evolving composition of its R&D activities. The comparative periods have been presented in accordance with these updated R&D categories.
Current report
Significant components of research and development expense include our clinical expenses by product candidate. These include the costs for the related candidate starting at first patient dosed in a Phase 1 trial, including personnel costs and an allocation of indirect costs, these costs are tracked by candidate. The internal and partnered discovery category includes expenses for pre-clinical assets and external collaborations. Platform technology and infrastructure expenses consist of costs incurred to develop, maintain and operate the technology platform and the infrastructure that supports research and development activities. These costs are not tracked by candidate. The personnel category includes all personnel expenses other than those attributed to clinical candidates. Data records primarily relate to Tempus records purchased.
Current report
Research and development expenses were $99.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $21.9 million, or 18%, compared to $121.1 million for the same period in 2025. Clinical costs increased by $3.7 million overall. Costs for our FAP REC-4881 and RBM39 REC-1245 programs rose by a combined $6.5 million as trials relating to these assets progressed. This increase was partially offset by a $2.7 million reduction in other clinical expenses as we decreased investment in other clinical programs. Internal and partnered discovery costs decreased by $25.3 million, primarily because the prior-year period included $22.8 million of in-process research and development (IPR&D) costs related to the acquisition of ENPP1. Stock-based compensation decreased by $4.4 million as a result of reduced headcount and the timing and value of award issuances. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $4.5 million due to assets becoming fully depreciated. Data records expense was $5.8 million, compared to none in the prior-year period, reflecting the timing of record purchases under our agreement with Tempus.
Current report
Research and development expenses were $276.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $102.7 million, or 27%, compared to $379.3 million for the same period in 2025. Clinical costs increased by $4.3 million overall. Costs for our FAP REC-4881 and RBM39 REC-1245 programs rose by a combined $9.8 million as trials relating to these assets progressed. This increase was partially offset by a $5.5 million reduction in other clinical expenses as we decreased investment in other clinical programs. Internal and partnered discovery costs decreased by $37.4 million, which included the effect of the $22.8 million of ENPP1 IPR&D costs incurred in the prior-year period and internal efficiencies. Personnel costs and stock-based compensation decreased by $11.0 million and $14.2 million, respectively, as a result of headcount reductions and the timing and value of stock-based award issuances. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $6.1 million due to assets becoming fully depreciated. Data records expense decreased by $41.0 million, reflecting the timing of record purchases under our agreement with Tempus.
