We extended the exclusivity protection for its commercial runway into 2040 with the issuance of a new manufacturing patent. Additionally, we have secured research coverage from Wall Street analysts who have shown significant interest in the revival of the listeria immunotherapy platform. We have started important interactions with the FDA with a view towards an Accelerated Approval, with the Osteosarcoma community supporting in the ongoing FDA process. We believe we are well positioned to bring the first new treatment for osteosarcoma to market in over 40 years.” “As outlined in communications surrounding our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the first quarter saw some significant one-time expenses related to closing out the treatment phase of the Phase 2b trial, as well as start-up costs for regulatory preparations ahead of our submission,” said Chris Acevedo, Chief Financial Officer of OS Therapies. “Those one-time expenses are now largely behind us, and we have dramatically reduced our burn rate, positioning us to operate into mid-2026.” First Quarter 2025 Corporate Highlights: Reported positive data for our Phase 2b clinical trial of OST-HER2 in the prevention of recurrent, fully resected, lung metastatic osteosarcoma, a rare pediatric indication Announced agreement to acquire three clinical stage, eight preclinical stage and all intellectual property surrounding the listeria cancer immunotherapy platform from Ayala Pharmaceuticals Initiated manufacturing protocols to support the commercial launch of OST-HER2 Received a Notice of Allowance from the US Patent & Trademark Office related to the pending issuance of a patent protecting a new commercial manufacturing process for the listeria cancer immunotherapy platform into 2040 Formed subsidiary OS Drug Conjugates (OSDC) to create a focused business development opportunity for the Company’s proprietary pH-sensitive tunable Antibody Drug Conjugates and tunable Drug Conjugates platform Secured a Scientific Advice Meeting with the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency to discuss seeking approval in the UK for OST-HER2 in the prevention of recurrent, fully resected, lung metastatic osteosarcoma Received the keynote presentation at the osteosarcoma community’s leading conference MIB Factor for June 28, 2025 in Salt Lake City, Utah Second Quarter 2025 Progress to Date and Future Milestones Progress to Date: Secured a Type D meeting with the FDA to gain alignment on the statistical analysis plan for the OST-HER2 trial needed to support pending Accelerated Approval, Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy and Breakthrough Therapy designation requests Completed the acquisition of the listeria cancer immunotherapy clinical, preclinical and IP assets from Ayala Pharmaceuticals Announced positive data from canine osteosarcoma trials expanding the potential use of OST-HER2 into the prevention of amputation and control of lung metastases Reported the formal issuance of the patent protecting proprietary commercial manufacturing methods for the listeria cancer immunotherapy platform Formed subsidiary OS Animal Health to focus on commercialization of OST-HER2 in canine osteosarcoma Upcoming 2025 Milestones: Feedback from Type D meeting with the FDA on the proposed statistical analysis plan of the OST-HER2 osteosarcoma program that will be used to support pending Accelerated Approval, Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy and Breakthrough Therapy designation requests on or before June 16, 2025 Presentation of the OST-HER2 Phase 2b osteosarcoma program data analyzed based upon FDA feedback at MIB Factor on June 28, 2025 End of Phase 2 Meeting with FDA in Q3 2025 to review OST-HER2 Phase 2b osteosarcoma program data Projected BLA submission in Q3 2025 for OST-HER2 in the prevention of recurrent, fully resected, lung metastatic pediatric osteosarcoma Summer 2025 Scientific Advice Meeting (SAM) with MHRA for OST-HER2 osteosarcoma program, ILAP application submission and MHRA Conditional Marketing Authorisation application & decision EMA National Competent Authority Scientific Advice Meeting Request (Medicines Evaluation Board, Netherlands) for OST-HER2 osteosarcoma program, EMA PRIME, EMA-FDA Parallel Scientific Advice application and EMA Conditional Marketing Authorisation application & decision USDA meeting for OST-HER2 canine osteosarcoma program, conditional approval and initiation of pivotal clinical studies in preventive and therapeutic applications of OST-HER2 in osteosarcoma via subsidiary OS Animal Health Loss from Operations: The Company recorded a net operating loss of $3.876 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with a net operating loss of $1.490 million in the first quarter of 2024.
