The ongoing Phase 1/2 PYNNACLE clinical trial is evaluating rezatapopt in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring a TP53 Y220C mutation. The Phase 2 clinical trial data below are summarized as of an August 4, 2025 data cutoff date: The safety population consisted of 109 patients treated with at least one dose of rezatapopt 2000 mg daily as monotherapy. Median number of prior lines of systemic therapy was three (range: 1-10) The efficacy population consisted of 97 patients treated with at least one dose of rezatapopt as of the data cutoff date and either had ≥1 post-baseline tumor assessment or discontinued early. Efficacy Confirmed responses were observed in patients whose tumors were TP53 Y220C mutated and KRAS wild-type in eight tumor types including ovarian, lung, breast, endometrial, head and neck, colorectal, gallbladder, and ampullary carcinoma.Overall response rate (ORR) of 33% (32/97 patients) per investigator assessment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1, including confirmed and unconfirmed responses.The cohort-specific ORRs were as follows: Ovarian cancer: 43% ORR (19/44 patients, including one confirmed complete response, 17 confirmed partial responses, and one unconfirmed partial response [uPR])Breast cancer: 18% ORR (2/11 patients)Endometrial cancer: 60% ORR (3/5 patients, including one uPR)Lung cancer: 22% ORR (4/18 patients, including three uPRs)Other solid tumors: 21% ORR (4/19 patients) Across all cohorts, the median time to response was 1.4 months and the median duration of response was 6.2 months.In the ovarian cancer cohort, the median time to response was 1.3 months and median duration of response was 7.6 months.Post the August 4, 2025 data cutoff date, the patients with uPRs remain on treatment. Safety Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were mostly Grade 1-2 with the most frequent TRAEs observed (>15%) being nausea, fatigue, blood creatinine increased, and alanine aminotransferase increased. The rates of individual Grade 3 TRAEs were <6%. All Grade 3 TRAEs resolved on treatment and there were no discontinuations due to Grade 3 AST/ALT elevations.Rezatapopt administration with food led to an improvement in gastrointestinal tolerability relative to Phase 1 data.Lab abnormalities were manageable, with the majority of cases being transient and reversible.The rate of drug discontinuations due to a TRAE was 3.7%. Regulatory Update During a recent meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), PMV Pharma received feedback regarding the initial New Drug Application (NDA) submission strategy for platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer. PMV Pharma plans to enroll an additional 20-25 platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer patients who have received prior standard of care by the end of the first quarter of 2026. The Company plans to submit an NDA for platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer by the end of the first quarter of 2027. “These Phase 2 PYNNACLE interim trial data illustrate that rezatapopt, a first-in-class therapy, has the potential to harness the power of p53 to address cancers with high unmet need,” said Deepika Jalota, Pharm.D., Chief Development Officer of PMV Pharma. “Since PMV Pharma’s inception, leveraging more than four decades of research experience, we have pioneered the discovery and development of small molecule therapeutics that are designed to selectively address this historically undruggable target. Today, we are one step closer to realizing our vision of developing therapies that reactivate specific mutant p53 proteins to restore their wild-type function. Looking ahead, we expect to complete enrollment in the Phase 2 portion of the PYNNACLE study by the first quarter of 2026 and plan to submit an NDA to the FDA for rezatapopt in the first quarter of 2027.” Investor Webinar PMV Pharma will host an investor webinar via webcast today at 8:00 AM ET to review the PYNNACLE Phase 2 interim data and provide a regulatory update. The event will feature presentations by PMV Pharma management and Ramez N. Eskander, M.D., Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at University of California, San Diego.

About RezatapoptRezatapopt (PC14586) is a first-in-class, small molecule, p53 reactivator designed to selectively bind to the pocket in the p53 Y220C mutant protein, restoring the wild-type tumor-suppressor function. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Fast Track designation to rezatapopt for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with a p53 Y220C mutation. About the PYNNACLE Clinical TrialThe ongoing Phase 1/2 PYNNACLE clinical trial is evaluating rezatapopt in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring a TP53 Y220C mutation. The primary objective of the Phase 1 portion of the clinical trial was to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of rezatapopt when administered orally to patients. Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and effects on biomarkers were also assessed. The Phase 2 portion is a registrational, single arm, expansion basket clinical trial comprising five cohorts (ovarian, lung, breast, and endometrial cancers, and other solid tumors) with the primary objective of evaluating the efficacy of rezatapopt at the RP2D in patients with TP53 Y220C and KRAS wild-type advanced solid tumors.
