MRTX849 Binding is Highly Selective for KRASG12C

MRTX849 Demonstrates Broad Spectrum Tumor Regression in KRASG12C Nonclinical Tumor Growth Models

STUDY OBJECTIVESPRIMARY OBJECTIVE• To characterize the safety and tolerability of MRTX849 in patients with

solid tumor malignancies with KRASG12C mutation• To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of MRTX849

PHASE 1/1B OBJECTIVES• To establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in one or more regimens• To evaluate biologically relevant dose levels• To identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and regimens of MRTX849• To evaluate the clinical activity

PHASE 2 OBJECTIVES • To evaluate the clinical activity of MRTX849 in cohorts of patients having

selected tumor malignancies with KRASG12C mutation

EXPANSION COHORT SUB-STUDIES & EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES• To evaluate the PK of new formulations, with food and in combination sub-studies• To explore correlations between exposure and patient outcomes, evaluate

population PK, characterize metabolites, evaluate the utility of detection of KRASG12C mutations in plasma, explore potential pharmacodynamic markers of KRAS inhibition, and explore correlations between baseline tumor biomarkers, gene alterations and clinical activity

STATISTICAL METHODSPhase 1• Accelerated Titration (AT) Design:

Dose escalation is initiated with single patient cohorts and 100% dose escalation until moderate toxicity and/or target plasma exposure is observed

• Modified Toxicity Probability Interval Design (mTPI): Completion of dose escalation is conducted using a Bayesian approach for establishing the MTD defined as the dose with a 30%±5% probability of DLT

Phase 2• Each of the four Phase 2 cohorts is evaluated independently• Predictive Probability Design (PPD) is used to establish stopping rules for futility• Statistical assumptions p0=0.10; p1=0.30• Sample size of N=40 for each Phase 2 cohort• Type I error (α) < 0.05, and Power (1-β) ≥ 0.90

KEY INCLUSION CRITERIA• Histologically confirmed diagnosis of solid tumor malignancy with

KRASG12C mutation• Unresectable or metastatic disease• No available treatment with curative intent, no available standard-of-care,

patient is ineligible or declines treatment• Presence of tumor lesions to be evaluated per RECIST 1.1• ECOG performance status in 0 or 1• Adequate organ function

KEY EXCLUSION CRITERIA• Active brain metastases• Carcinomatous meningitis• Cardiac abnormalities within the last 6 months• History of stroke or transient ischemic attack within the previous 6 months • Known or suspected presence of another malignancy• Prior treatment with a therapy targeting KRASG12C

(applicable for Phase 2 cohorts)

MRTX849 DOSING REGIMENS AND ASSESSMENTS• Patients receive MRTX849 orally, once daily in a continuous 3-week cycles• Other regimens may be evaluated based on emerging results• During Phase 1, PK sampling will follow a lead-in dose and after repeated dosing• Treatment will continue until disease progression, intolerable toxicity,

patient refusal, or death • Routine safety assessments performed throughout the study• Disease assessments using RECIST version 1.1 every 6 weeks• Other assessments include safety, tolerability, PK, and biomarker

sample collection

A Phase 1/2 Multiple Expansion Cohort Trial of MRTX849 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors with KRAS G12C Mutation

SUMMARY• KRASG12C plays a critical role in carcinogenesis NSCLC, CRC, and other tumors

• MRTX849 is an highly selective and oral small molecule inhibitor of KRASG12C

• Binding of MRTX849 to KRASG12C is covalent and irreversible• This multiple expansion cohort Phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety,

pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity of MRTX849 in patients with solid tumor malignancies harboring a KRASG12C mutation

• Enrollment began in January, 2019 and the study is actively accruing patients• Clinical Trial Information: NCT03785249

BACKGROUNDKRAS MUTATIONS IN CANCER • RAS proteins are part of the family of small GTPases which regulate intracellular

signaling pathways responsible for cell growth, migration, survival, and differentiation• Oncogenic point mutations involving RAS family at codons 12, 13, and 61 occur in

up to 25% of all human cancers and result in constitutive activation of RAS signaling• Constitutive RAS signaling plays an important role in uncontrolled cellular growth

and malignant transformation

KRASG12C MUTATION• Detected in >25 different tumor types• Represents the most common mutation in lung adenocarcinoma (14%)

and has also been reported in large cell neuroendocrine and sarcomatoid non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

• Occurs in ~4% of colorectal cancer (CRC)• Identified in other cancers including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma,

cancer of unknown primary, gastric cancer, and endometrial cancer

MRTX849 • Orally available, mutation-selective small molecule inhibitor of KRASG12C

• Irreversible, covalent binding to KRASG12C

○ KRAS cycles between an active GTP-bound form and an inactive GDP-bound form

○ MRTX849 irreversibly binds to Cysteine 12 in the inducible Switch II pocket of KRASG12C and locks it in an inactive GDP-bound state

○ MRTX849 inactivates KRASG12C and prevents oncogenic signaling in KRASG12C mutant tumor cells but has no effect on normal cells

• Highly selective

○ Does not bind wild-type KRAS, other mutant KRAS species, or any of ~6000 peptides from 2490 proteins

• In cell lines, MRTX849 inhibits growth and viability of cells harboring KRASG12C mutations, but not in cells with other mutant forms or of wild-type KRAS

• In animal models, MRTX849 demonstrated antitumor activity in a broad range of KRASG12C positive tumors

MRTX849 Inhibits KRASG12C – Mediated Oncogenic Signaling• RTK signaling normally activates the RAS/MAP kinase pathway by facilitating

GTP-loading of KRAS which induces a conformation change in KRAS that activates the pathway

• KRASG12C mutations prevent GAP-stimulated GTP hydrolysis, leaving KRASG12C in the active state

• MRTX849 covalently binds in a defined pocket to the Cys residue of inactive, GDP-bound KRASG12C, inactivating the pathway, and leading to tumor growth inhibition
