Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On December 10, 2024, OnKure Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing preliminary safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic data from its first-in-human PIKture-01 trial of OKI-219. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

On December 10, 2024, the Company also posted a presentation to its Investor Relations website (https://investors.onkuretherapeutics.com). A copy of the presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 10, 2024, the Company announced preliminary safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (“PK”) data from its first-in-human PIKture-01 trial of OKI-219. OKI-219 was well tolerated across all dose levels with no hyperglycemia, and only grade 1 treatment-related adverse events (“TRAEs”) were reported. No dose interruptions, delays, reductions, or discontinuations were reported for any adverse events. OKI-219 dosed at 900 mg twice daily shows steady-state exposure levels with near-continuous coverage of the in vivoEC 80 for pAKT inhibition. These data support initiation of Part 1b of PIKture-01 evaluating OKI-219 in combination with fulvestrant, and the first patients have been dosed. The Company expects to provide additional single agent data and initial combination data with fulvestrant in the second half of 2025. In addition, the Company announced new pre-clinical data that show OKI-219’s synergistic activity, inducing regressions, in combination with SERD + CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Preliminary Safety Data (Data cutoff date for announcement: October 28, 2024)

Patients have been treated with OKI-219 at three dose levels as a single agent: 300 mg BID, 600 mg BID, and 900 mg BID. Across all three levels, a total of 17 patients have been dosed, including 11 patients with HER2- breast cancer, two with HR+/HER2+ breast cancer, two with colorectal cancer, one with triple negative breast cancer and one with squamous cell carcinoma in the single-agent dose escalation. OKI-219 has been generally well tolerated, with no dose-limiting toxicities, dose interruptions, or dose reductions required. The most common TRAEs were Grade 1 diarrhea (N=4), Grade 1 nausea (N=2) and Grade 1 pruritus (N=2).

Pharmacokinetic and Selectivity Profile

OKI-219 has shown favorable PK data that support pharmacologically relevant exposures, even at the lowest assessed dose levels, with a safety profile that suggests little or no inhibition of wild-type PI3Kα. At steady state, the exposures of OKI-219 exceed exposures associated with robust antitumor activity in preclinical models.

 

img79528660_0.jpg

 


There are 13 patients who have received a ≥600 mg dose twice a day that remain in the study. In addition, two patients with HR+/HER2- breast cancer (BR) who received the 300 mg dose showed prolonged stable disease, including one patient that sustained >95% reduction in PIK3CAH1047R ctDNA and remains on treatment for more than seven months.

 

img79528660_1.jpg

 

Pre-Clinical Data

Preclinical in vivo data show that OKI-219 used in combination with standard-of-care therapies for mutant-selected solid tumors, including breast cancers, showed potent anti-tumor activity with excellent tolerability at doses well above those needed for tumor regressions in those models. Specifically, OKI-219 shows strong combination activity in doublet with SERDs and in triplet with SERD + CDK4/6 inhibitors. Additional preclinical combination studies are ongoing.

Pipeline Progress

OnKure is actively pursuing multiple additional early-stage discovery programs that target oncogenic mutations of PI3Kα. The Company has broadened the expectations of its next-generation program beyond PI3KαH1047mutations to target all the most common PI3Kα mutations (i.e., H1047R, E545K, and E542K). The Company expects to announce a pan-mutant development candidate in the first half of 2025. Additionally, the Company is developing a highly selective allosteric inhibitor molecule specifically targeting the PI3Kα E545K and E542K mutations (a/k/a helical domain mutations or e-mutants) and expects to announce a development candidate in 2026.

BOULDER, CO, December 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – OnKure Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: OKUR), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel precision medicines in oncology, today announced encouraging safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic data from the ongoing first-in-human trial of OKI-219, a potential best-in-class, mutant-selective PI3KαH1047R inhibitor. OKI-219 was well tolerated across all dose levels with no hyperglycemia, and only grade 1 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported. No dose interruptions, delays, reductions, or discontinuations were reported for any adverse events (AEs). OKI-219 dosed at 900 mg twice daily shows steady-state exposure levels with near-continuous coverage of the in vivo EC 80 for pAKT inhibition. These data are consistent with the Company’s preclinical data and support the continued development of OKI-219.

 

In addition, the Company announced new pre-clinical data that show OKI-219’s synergistic activity, inducing regressions, in combination with SERD + CDK4/6 inhibitors, potentially paving the way for clinical trials in multiple lines of therapy. These clinical and preclinical data are scheduled to be presented during poster sessions at the 2024 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS) on December 12, 2024.

 

“We are thrilled to present the first clinical data for our lead program, OKI-219, which is the only highly selective PI3KαH1047R inhibitor molecule in the clinic,” said Nicholas Saccomano, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of OnKure.“ These preliminary data show that OKI-219 was very well tolerated and presents a favorable safety profile. In addition, the clinical PK data show consistent steady-state exposure with near-continuous target coverage at levels where clinical activity is consistently observed. These initial clinical data support our initiation of Part 1b of the PIKture-01 trial to evaluate OKI-219 in combination with fulvestrant. We look forward to providing mature single agent and initial fulvestrant data in the second half of 2025.”

 

Preliminary Safety Data (Data cutoff date for announcement: October 28, 2024)

Patients have been treated with OKI-219 at three dose levels as a single agent: 300 mg BID, 600 mg BID, and 900 mg BID. Across all three levels, a total of 17 patients have been dosed, including 11 patients with HR+/HER2- breast cancer, two with HER2+ breast cancer, two with colorectal cancer, one with triple negative breast cancer and one with squamous cell carcinoma in the single-agent dose escalation. OKI-219 has been generally well tolerated, with no dose-limiting toxicities, dose interruptions, or dose

reductions required. The most common TRAEs were Grade 1 diarrhea (N=4), Grade 1 nausea (N=2) and Grade 1 pruritus (N=2).

 

Pharmacokinetic and Selectivity Profile

OKI-219 has shown favorable PK data that support pharmacologically relevant exposures, even at the lowest assessed dose levels, with a safety profile that suggests little or no inhibition of wild-type PI3Kα. At steady state, the exposures of OKI-219 exceed exposures associated with robust antitumor activity in preclinical models.

PIKture-01 Trial

PIKture-01 is a global, multi-center, first-in-human phase 1a/1b study evaluating OKI-219 as monotherapy and in combination with fulvestrant or trastuzumab in subjects with advanced solid tumors including breast cancer harboring a PI3KαH1047R mutation. In Phase 1a, subjects receive escalating oral doses of OKI-219 starting at 300 mg BID continuously. Phase 1b is assessing OKI-219 in combination with fulvestrant in patients with HR+/HER2- breast cancer, or with trastuzumab in patients with HER2+ breast cancer. The study also includes a dose optimization phase to evaluate the optimal combination doses of OKI-219 with fulvestrant or trastuzumab. Additional information about PIKture-01 may be found at www.ClinicalTrials.gov, using Identifier: NCT06239467.
